HOW DOES A GRAPH HELP YOU SEE ANOMALOUS DATA?

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Anomalies consist of one or more modifications, insertions or deletions. As was described in Section 3.1, there are only three types of changes that can be made to a graph. Therefore, anomalies that consist of structural changes to a graph must consist of one of these types. Assumption 4.

An athlete whose mass is 87.0 kg is performing weight-lifting exercises. Starting from the rest position, he lifts, with constan

expeople1 [14]

Answer: X = 52,314.12 N

Explanation: Let X be the force the feet of the athlete exerts on the floor.

According to newton's third law of motion the floor gives an upward reaction based on the weight of the athlete and the barbell which is known as the normal reaction ( based on the mass of the athlete and the barbell)

Mass of athlete = 87kg, mass of barbell = 600/ hence total normal reaction from the floor = 87* 61.22/ 9.8 *9.8 = 52,200N.

The athlete lifts the barbell from rest thus making it initial velocity u=0, distance covered = S = 0.65m and the time taken = 1.3s

The acceleration of the barbell is gotten by using the equation of constant acceleration motion

S= ut + 1/2at²

But u = 0

S = 1/2at²

0.65 = 1/2 *a (1.3)²

0.65 = 1.69 * a/2

0.65 * 2 = 1.69 * a

a = 0.65 * 2/ 1.69

a = 0.77m/s²

According to newton's second law of motion

Resultant force = mass * acceleration

And resultant force in this case is

X - 52,200 = (87 + 61.22) * 0.77

X - 52,200 = 148.22 * 0.77

X - 52, 200 = 114.132

X = 114.132 + 52,200

X = 52,314.12 N

A hydrogen atom that has an electron in the n = 2 state absorbs a photon. What wavelength must the photon possess to send the el

Deffense [45]

Answer:

486nm

Explanation:

in order for an electron to transit from one level to another, the wavelength emitted is given by Rydberg Equation which states that

$\frac{1}{wavelength}=R.[\frac{1}{n_{f}^{2} } -\frac{1}{n_{i}^{2} }] \\n_{f}=2\\n_{i}=4\\R=Rydberg constant =1.097*10^{7}m^{-1}\\subtitiute \\\frac{1}{wavelength}=1.097*10^{7}[\frac{1}{2^{2} } -\frac{1}{4^{2}}]\\\frac{1}{wavelength}= 1.097*10^{7}*0.1875\\\frac{1}{wavelength}= 2.06*10^{6}\\wavelength=4.86*10{-7}m\\wavelength= 486nm\\$

Hence the photon must possess a wavelength of 486nm in order to send the electron to the n=4 state

Does the horizontal distance d travelled by the ball depend on the height of release? If it does depend on the height, what is t

elena-s [515]

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes , the horizontal distance travelled by the ball will depend upon the height of release .

When a ball is thrown at some angle from a height , it has two components , the vertical component and horizontal component . The ball goes in horizontal direction due to its horizontal component . Its vertical component has no role to play . But the horizontal range covered by the body thrown

depends upon the duration of time in which it remains in air . The longer it remains in air , the greater distance it can cover horizontally .

Horizontal distance covered = t x horizontal velocity

If V be the velocity of throw and Vx be its horizontal component

Horizontal distance covered = t x Vx

Now t depends upon the height . If height rises , time of fall will increase so horizontal distance covered will increase .

If h be the height from which the body is thrown , Vy be the vertical upward component of initial velocity

from the relation

s = ut + 1/2 at²

h = - Vy t + 1/2 at²

As h increases , t will increase and therefore horizontal distance covered will increase. If the ball has only horizontal velocity initially , Vy = 0

h = 1/2 gt²

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }$

Horizontal distance covered = t x Vx

= $\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \times V_x$

From this expression also

Horizontal distance covered is proportional to $\sqrt{h}$ .
