A tennis ball "A" is released from rest down a 10.0 m long inclined ramp with a uniform acceleration of 5.0 m/s2 . Another tenni

s ball "B" is initially located at the same height as ball "A" right above the lower edge of the ramp. Ball "B" is thrown upward with some initial speed at the same instant as the release of ball "A". A) What was the initial velocity of ball "B" so that "A" and "B" reach the bottom of the ramp at the same time?

Answer:

4.8 m/s

Explanation:

For tennis ball "A", we are told that;

Initial velocity; u = 0 m/s

Distance; h = 10 m

Acceleration; a = 5 m/s²

Thus, using Newton's equation of motion, we can find time(t).

h = ut + ½at²

10 = 0 + ½(5)t²

10 = ½(5t²)

t² = 2 × 10/5

t² = 4

t = √4

t = 2 seconds

Now, this time would be the same for ball B since we are told that they reach the bottom at the same time.

Now, since ball B is thrown upwards, it means it is thrown against gravity. Thus;

h = -ut + ½gt²

10 = -2u + ½(9.8)(2²)

Where u is initial velocity of Ball B.

Thus;

10 = -2u + 19.6

2u = 19.6 - 10

2u = 9.6

u = 9.6/2

u = 4.8 m/s

Which shows a decrease in fluid pressure? A. A fan is turned from high speed to low speed. B. Oxygen is compressed as it is put
Volgvan

Answer:

Option A.

A fan is turned from high speed to low speed.

Explanation:

It is important to note that air is also a fluid.

In a system, static pressure of air increases with the speed of rotation of the fan. This is because when the speed of the fan is increased, the force with which it is pushing the air molecules is increased. Since pressure is a relationship between force and area, the pressure of the air molecules will be increased.

Conversely, when the speed of the fan is reduced, the priming force on the air molecules will be reduced, hence the pressure of the air will drop.

This makes option A the correct option

Which type of nuclear reaction involves combining light elements into a heavier element, with a resultant release of great amoun
torisob [31]

Answer: Fusion

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which hydrocarbons are burnt in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.

Nuclear fusion is a process which involves the conversion of two small nuclei to form a heavy nuclei along with release of energy.

_{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}+_2^4\textrm{He}\rightarrow _{96}^{242}\textrm{Cm}+_0^\textrm{n}

Nuclear fission is a process which involves the conversion of a heavier nuclei into two or more small and stable nuclei along with the release of energy.

_{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_0^1\textrm{n}\rightarrow _{36}^{91}\textrm{Kr}+_{56}^{142}\textrm{Ba}+_{0}^{1}\textrm{n}
