Answer:

(a) 0.84 s

(b) 8.22 m/s

(c) 15.33 m/s

Explanation:

u = 0 , h = 3.45 m, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Let time taken to reach the water is t and the velocity at the time of hitting of water surface is v.

(a) Use first equation of motion

s = u t + 1/2 a t^2

3.45 = 0 + 0.5 x 9.8 x t^2

t = 0.84 second

(b) Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

v = 0 + 9.8 x 0.84 = 8.22 m/s

(c) If h = 12 m

use third equation of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2 g h

v^2 = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 12

v = 15.33 m / s

A boy pulls a 28.0-kg box with a 230-N force at 35° above a horizontal surface. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between t
ddd [48]

Answer:

1977.696 J

Explanation:

Given;

Weight of the box = 28.0 kg

Force applied by the boy = 230 N

angle between the horizontal and the force = 35°

Therefore,

the horizontal component of the force = 230 × cosθ

= 230 × cos 35°

= 188.405 N

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.24

Force by friction, f = μN

here,

N = Normal force = Mass × acceleration due to gravity

or

N = 28 × 9.81 = 274.68 N

therefore,

f = 0.24 × 274.68

or

f = 65.9232 N

Now,

work done by the boy, W₁ = 188.405 N × Displacement  

= 188.405 N × 30

= 5652.15 J

and,

the

work done by the friction, W₂ = - 65.9232 N × Displacement  

= - 65.9232 N × 30 m

= - 1977.696 J

[ since the friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion, therefore the workdone will be negative]

Tectonic plates are large segments of the earth's crust that move slowly. suppose one such plate has an average speed of 4.8 cm
user100 [1]
<span>one year is 365, 1 day is 24 hours, 1 hour is 60 minutes, 60 minutes is 60 seconds, thus (365 * 24 * 60 * 60) = 31,536,000 one year is equal to 31,536,000 seconds. the plate has a speed of 4.8 cm every 31,536,000 seconds. lets find out how far it goes in 40 seconds. (4.8/31,536,000)*40 = 0.00000608828 The plate moves 0.00000608828 cm every 40 seconds</span>

A slit of width 2.0 μm is used in a single slit experiment with light of wavelength 650 nm. If the intensity at the central maxi
Valentin [98]

Answer:

The intensity at 10° from the center is 3.06 × 10⁻⁴I₀

Explanation:

The intensity of light I = I₀(sinα/α)² where α = πasinθ/λ

I₀ = maximum intensity of light

a = slit width = 2.0 μm = 2.0 × 10⁻⁶ m

θ = angle at intensity point = 10°

λ = wavelength of light = 650 nm = 650 × 10⁻⁹ m

α = πasinθ/λ

= π(2.0 × 10⁻⁶ m)sin10°/650 × 10⁻⁹ m

= 1.0911/650 × 10³

= 0.001679 × 10³

= 1.679

Now, the intensity I is

I = I₀(sinα/α)²

= I₀(sin1.679/1.679)²

= I₀(0.0293/1.679)²

= 0.0175²I₀

= 0.0003063I₀

= 3.06 × 10⁻⁴I₀

So, the intensity at 10° from the center is 3.06 × 10⁻⁴I₀

A giant star has a luminosity of 300 its color is most likely to be
amm1812
<span>The correct answer is blue. If you look at a luminosity star chart, called the Hertzsprung Russell Diagram, you will see the measurement of luminosity on the left side, and you will see a curve of stars with different colors (which correlate to the colors of the stars). Look for 30 on the luminosity measurement (look between 1 and 100). Then, move horizontally across the diagram until you hit the stars, whose color will be blue. Thus, blue is the answer.</span>
