Answer:

$h_m=25.8\ m$

Explanation:

<u>Vertical Launch Upwards</u>

In a vertical launch upwards, an object is launched vertically up without taking into consideration friction with the air.

If vo is the initial speed and g is the acceleration of gravity, the maximum height reached by the object is given by:

$\displaystyle h_m=\frac{v_o^2}{2g}$

The tennis ball was thrown straight up with a speed of v0=22.5 m/s. The acceleration of gravity is g=9.81\ m/s^2, thus:

$\displaystyle h_m=\frac{22.5^2}{2\cdot 9.81}$

$\mathbf{h_m=25.8\ m}$

A satellite, orbiting the earth at the equator at an altitude of 400 km, has an antenna that can be modeled as a 1.76-m-long rod

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The inducerd emf is 1.08 V

Solution:

As per the question:

Altitude of the satellite, H = 400 km

Length of the antenna, l = 1.76 m

Magnetic field, B = $8.0\times 10^{- 5}\ T$

Now,

When a conducting rod moves in a uniform magnetic field linearly with velocity, v, then the potential difference due to its motion is given by:

$e = - l(vec{v}\times \vec{B})$

Here, velocity v is perpendicular to the rod

Thus

e = lvB (1)

For the orbital velocity of the satellite at an altitude, H:

$v = \sqrt{\frac{Gm_{E}}{R_{E}} + H}$

where

G = Gravitational constant

$m_{e} = 5.972\times 10^{24}\ kg$ = mass of earth

$R_{E} = 6371\ km$ = radius of earth

$v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67\times 10^{- 11}\times 5.972\times 10^{24}}{6371\times 1000 + 400\times 1000} = 7670.018\ m/s$

Using this value value in eqn (1):

$e = 1.76\times 7670.018\times 8.0\times 10^{- 5} = 1.08\ V$

If you hold your hand over a pot of boiling water, it feels hot. Explain how the boiling water is transforming heat to your hand

MakcuM [25]

I don't no if this helps but the body heat from your hand causes the liquid to boil, which in turn makes the liquid evaporate, turning it to gas. The expanding gas pushes the liquid upwards and when you release your hand, equilibrium is re-established.

A circular parallel plate capacitor is constructed with a radius of 0.52 mm, a plate separation of 0.013 mm, and filled with an

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

289282

Explanation:

r = Radius of plate = 0.52 mm

d = Plate separation = 0.013 mm

A = Area = $\pi r^2$

V = Potential applied = 2 mV

k = Dielectric constant = 40

$\epsilon_0$ = Electric constant = $8.854\times 10^{-12}\ \text{F/m}$

Capacitance is given by

$C=\dfrac{k\epsilon_0A}{d}$

Charge is given by

$Q=CV\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{k\epsilon_0AV}{d}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{40\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times\pi \times (0.52\times 10^{-3})^2\times 2\times 10^{-3}}{0.013\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow Q=4.6285\times 10^{-14}\ \text{C}$
