Answer:

B) t = 1.83 [s]

A) y = 16.51 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f} =v_{o} -g*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0

Vo = initial velocity = 18 [m/s]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

t = time [s]

Note: the negative sign in the above equation means that the acceleration of gravity is acting in the opposite direction to the motion.

A) The maximum height is reached when the final velocity of the ball is zero.

0 = 18 - (9.81*t)

9.81*t = 18

t = 18/9.81

t = 1.83 [s], we found the answer for B.

Now using the following equation.

y = y_{o} + v_{o}*t - 0.5*g*t^{2}\\

where:

y = elevation [m]

Yo = initial elevation = 0

y = 18*(1.83) - 0.5*9.81*(1.83)²

y = 16.51 [m]

You lift a 10-N physics book up in the air a distance of 1.0 m, at a constant velocity
Anarel [89]

The book is lifted upward, but gravity points down, so the work done by gravity must be negative (so you can eliminate options 1 and 3).

The force exerted on the book by gravity has magnitude

<em>F</em> = <em>mg</em> = (10 N) (9.80 m/s^2) = 9.8 N ≈ 10 N

You raise the book 1.0 m in the opposite direction, so the work done is

<em>W</em> = (10 N) (-1.0 m) = -10 J

The atomic number of an element is found by?
azamat

Calculate the number of neutrons. Now you know that atomic number = number of protons, and mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons. To find the number of neutrons in an element, subtract the atomic number from the mass number.
