Kim throws a beach ball up in the air. It reaches its maximum height 0.50s later. We can ignore air resistance. What was the bea

notka56 [123]

Answer:

The beach ball's velocity at the moment it was tossed into the air is 4.9 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

Time taken by the ball to reach maximum height is, $t=0.50\ s$

We know that, velocity of an object at the highest point is always zero. So, final velocity of the ball is, $v=0\ m/s$

Also, acceleration acting on the ball is always due to gravity. So, acceleration of the ball is, $a=g=-9.8\ m/s^2$

The negative sign is used as acceleration is a vector and it acts in the downward direction.

Now, we have the equation of motion relating initial velocity, final velocity, acceleration and time given as:

$v=u+at$

Where, 'u' is the initial velocity.

Plug in the given values and solve for 'u'. This gives,

$0=u-9.8(0.5)\\u=9.8\times 0.5\\u=4.9\ m/s$

Therefore, the beach ball's velocity at the moment it was tossed into the air is 4.9 m/s

Two long straight wires are parallel and 8.6 cm apart. They are to carry equal currents such that the magnetic field at a point

Neko [114]

Answer:

(a) The current should be in opposite direction

(b) The current needed is 39.8 A

Explanation:

Part (a)

Based, on right hand rule, the current should be in opposite direction

Part (b)

given;

strength of magnetic field, B = 370 µT

distance between the two parallel wires, d = 8.6 cm

$B = \frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi R}$

At the center, the magnetic field strength is twice

$B_c = 2(\frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi R}) =\frac{ \mu_oI}{\pi R}$

R = d/2 = 8.6/2 = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m

$B_c = \frac{ \mu_oI}{\pi R}\\\\I = \frac{B_c\pi R}{\mu_o} = \frac{370 *10^{-6}* \pi *0.043}{4\pi *10^{-7}}\\\\I = 39.8 \ A$

Therefore, current needed is 39.8 A

Formed through longshore drift a. sea stack b. sandbar c. spit d. headland

ANTONII [103]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

Sand Spit or Spit

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Long shore drift is the process that occurs when a sheet of water moves on and off the beach, in other words the swash and back swash, thus capturing and transporting sediment on the beach back out to the sea.
Sandbar is normally formed when the sandspit stretches across a bay and connects the two sides. Headland is a high piece of land that extends out onto the sea. Sea stacks on the other hand results from the collapsing of the roof of the arch.
