Answer:

16.67m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance Pete drove  = 300m

Time taken  = 18s

Unknown:

Speed  = ?

Solution:

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

   Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

Insert the parameters and solve;

  Speed  = \frac{300}{18}  = 16.67m/s

What is the charge on 1.0 kg of protons? (e = 1.60 × 10-19 c, mproton = 1.67 × 10-27 kg)?
Andru [333]
First, we need to find the number of protons, which is the total mass divided by the mass of one proton:
N= \frac{m}{m_p}= \frac{1.0 kg}{1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg}=6.0 \cdot 10^{26} protons

Then, the total charge is the number of protons times the charge of a  single proton:
Q=Ne = 6.0 \cdot 10^{26}\cdot 1.60 \cdot 10^{-19} C=9.6 \cdot 10^7 C

A ball is thrown straight up. What are the velocity and acceleration of the ball at the highest point in its path?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

b. v = 0, a = 9.8 m/s² down.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The acceleration of gravity is always directed to the ground (down) and, near the surface of the earth, has a constant value of 9.8 m/s². Since the answer "b" is the only option with an acceleration of 9.8 m/s² directed downwards, that would solve the exercise. But why is the velocity zero at the highest point?

Let´s take a look at the height function:

h(t) = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 g · t²

Where

h0 = initial height

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

g = acceleration due to gravity

Notice that the function is a negative parabola if we consider downward as negative (in that case "g" would be negative). Then, the function has a maximum (the highest point) at the vertex of the parabola. At the maximum point, the slope of the tangent line to the function is zero, because the tangent line is horizontal at a maximum point. The slope of the tangent line to the function is the rate of change of height with respect to time, i.e, the velocity. Then, the velocity is zero at the maximum height.

Another way to see it (without calculus):

When the ball is going up, the velocity vector points up and the velocity is positive. After reaching the maximum height, the velocity vector points down and is negative (the ball starts to fall). At the maximum height, the velocity vector changed its direction from positive to negative, then at that point, the velocity vector has to be zero.

Light is incident on an air-water interface at an angle of 30 degree to the normal. What angle does the refracted ray make with
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

22 degree

Explanation:

Angle of incidence, i = 30 degree

the refractive index of water with respect to air is 4/3.

As the ray of light travels from rarer medium to denser medium, that mean air to water, the refraction takes place.

According to Snell's law,

Refractive index of water with respect to air = Sin i / Sin r

Where, r be the angle of refraction

4 / 3 = Sin 30 / Sin r

0.75 = 2 Sin r

Sin r = 0.375

r = 22 degree

Thus, the angle of refraction is 22 degree.
