Refer to the diagram shown below.

When the ball attains maximum height, it will have zero vertical velocity.
The maximum height, h. obeys the equation
0 = (22 m/s)² - 2*(9.8 m/s²)*(h m)
h = 22²/(2*9.8) = 24.694 m

Answer: The maximum height attained is 24.7 m (nearest tenth)

Part b.
The vertical height traveled by the ball obeys the equation
h = (22 m/s)t - (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)²
where
h = vertical height, m
g = 9.8 m/s², acceleration due to gravity
t = time, s

To find how long the ball stays in the air, set h = 0 to obtain
4.9t² - 22t = 0
t(4.9t - 22) = 0
t = 0, or t = 22/4.9 = 4.49 s
t = 0 corresponds to the launch, and t = 4.49 s corresponds to when the ball retuns to the ground.

Answer: The ball stays in the air for 4.5 s (nearest tenth)

The diver uses compressed air to breathe under water. 1700 litres of air from the atmosphere is compressed into a 12-litre gas c
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

A diver works in the sea on a day when the atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. The diver uses compressed air to breathe under water. 1700 litres of air from the atmosphere is compressed into a 12-litre gas cylinder. The compressed air quickly cools to its original temperature. Calculate the pressure of the air in the cylinder.

Solution:

Boyles law states that the volume of a given gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted by the gas, provided that the temperature is constant.

That is:

P ∝ 1/V;   PV = constant

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Given that P₁ = initial pressure = 101 kPa, V₁ = initial volume = 1700 L, P₂ = cylinder pressure, V₂ = cylinder volume = 12 L. Hence:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

100 kPa * 1700 L = P₂ * 12 L

P₂ = (100 kPa * 1700 L) / 12 L

P₂ = 14308 kPa

Peak wavelength of light coming from a star with a temp of 4300k
PSYCHO15rus [73]

from Wein's law

\frac{k}{ \lambda_{max} }  = T \\ \lambda_{max} =  \frac{k}{T}  \\ \lambda_{max} =  \frac{3.898 \times  {10}^{ - 3} }{4300}   \\  = 9.065 \times  {10}^{ - 7}

In a vacuum, two particles have charges of q1 and q2, where q1 = +3.11 μC. They are separated by a distance of 0.241 m, and part
lesya [120]

Answer:

Charge of particle 2, q_2=-7.13\ \mu C

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge 1, q_1=3.11\ \mu C=3.11\times 10^{-6}\ C

The distance between charges, r = 0.241 m

Force experienced by particle 1, F = 3.44 N

We need to find the magnitude of electric charge 2. It can be calculated using formula of electrostatic force. It is given by :

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

q_2=\dfrac{Fr^2}{kq_1}

q_2=\dfrac{3.44\times (0.241)^2}{9\times 10^9\times 3.11\times 10^{-6}}

q_2=7.13\times 10^{-6}\ C

or

q_2=7.13\ \mu C

So, the magnitude of electric charge 2 is q_2=7.13\ \mu C. Since, the force is attractive then the magnitude of charge 2 must be negative.

A satellite does not need any fuel to revolve around the earth?why​
Nadusha1986 [10]

They don't need gas because satellites rotate around the world using our planet's gravitational force as centripetal force. That as well as since there is no air in space, it doesn't have to work against air resistance. This way it doesn't lose energy by going around and around the Earth.

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED day! :-)
