A snowball with a mass of 85 g hits the top hat of a 1.5 m tall snowman and sticks to it. the hat and the snowball, with a combi

LenaWriter [7]

Part (a): Velocity of the snowball
By conservation of momentu;
m1v1 + m2v2 = m3v3,

Where, m1 = mass of snowball, v1, velocity of snowball, m2 = mass of the hat, v2 = velocity of the hat, m3 = mass of snowball and the hat, v3 = velocity of snowball and the hut.

v2 = 0, and therefore,
85*v1 + 0 = 220*8 => v1 = 220*8/85 = 20.71 m/s

Part (b): Horizontal range
x = v3*t
But,
y = vy -1/2gt^2, but y = -1.5 m (moving down), vy =0 (no vertical velocity), g = 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting;
-1.5 = 0 - 1/2*9.81*t^2
1.5 = 4.905*t^2
t = Sqrt (1.5/4.905) = 0.553 seconds

Then,
x = 8*0.553 = 4.424 m

what are the 3 properties of components of the universe that can be determined using electromagnetic radiation?

stepan [7]

Your answer is electricity, light and magnetism. They can be determined usinf elecromagnetic radioation.

Even the energy can't be detected by our eyes, there are a lot of measurement instruments that can measure infrared (IR), gamma rays, radio or X-rays or ultraviolet (UV)

A particle (m = 4.3 × 10^-28 kg) starting from rest, experiences an acceleration of 2.4 × 10^7 m/s^2 for 5.0 s. What is its de B

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Wavelength, $\lambda=1.28\times 10^{-14}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the particle, $m=4.3\times 10^{-28}\ kg$

Acceleration of the particle, $a=2.4\times 10^7\ m/s^2$

Time, t = 5 s

It starts from rest, u = 0

The De Broglie wavelength is given by :

$\lambda=\dfrac{h}{mv}$

v = a × t

$\lambda=\dfrac{h}{mat}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-34}}{4.3\times 10^{-28}\times 2.4\times 10^7\times 5}$

$\lambda=1.28\times 10^{-14}\ m$

Hence, this is the required solution.

What is a newton defined as

slava [35]

Answer:

Newton, absolute unit of force in the International System of Units (SI units), abbreviated N. It is defined as that force necessary to provide a mass of one kilogram with an acceleration of one metre per second per second.

Two wires A and B with circular cross-section are made of the same metal and have equal lengths, but the resistance of wire A is

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

r₁/r₂ = 1/2 = 0.5

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by the following formula:

R = ρL/A

where,

R = Resistance of wire

ρ = resistivity of the material of wire

L = Length of wire

A = Cross-sectional area of wire = πr²

r = radius of wire

Therefore,

R = ρL/πr²

FOR WIRE A:

R₁ = ρ₁L₁/πr₁² -------- equation 1

FOR WIRE B:

R₂ = ρ₂L₂/πr₂² -------- equation 2

It is given that resistance of wire A is four times greater than the resistance of wire B.

R₁ = 4 R₂

using values from equation 1 and equation 2:

ρ₁L₁/πr₁² = 4ρ₂L₂/πr₂²

since, the material and length of both wires are same.

ρ₁ = ρ₂ = ρ

L₁ = L₂ = L

Therefore,

ρL/πr₁² = 4ρL/πr₂²

1/r₁² = 4/r₂²

r₁²/r₂² = 1/4

taking square root on both sides:

r₁/r₂ = 1/2 = 0.5
