A ball is dropped from rest from the top of a building of height h. At the same instant, a second ball is projected vertically u
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

a) t = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}

b) Ball 1 has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height is the same for both balls = 3h/4.

Explanation:

a) We can find the time when the two balls meet by equating the distances as follows:

y = y_{0_{1}} + v_{0_{1}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}  

Where:

y_{0_{1}}: is the initial height = h

v_{0_{1}}: is the initial speed of ball 1 = 0 (it is dropped from rest)

y = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}     (1)

Now, for ball 2 we have:

y = y_{0_{2}} + v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    

Where:

y_{0_{2}}: is the initial height of ball 2 = 0

y = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    (2)

By equating equation (1) and (2) we have:

h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

t=\frac{h}{v_{0_{2}}}

Where the initial velocity of the ball 2 is:

v_{f_{2}}^{2} = v_{0_{2}}^{2} - 2gh

Since v_{f_{2}}^{2} = 0 at the maximum height (h):

v_{0_{2}} = \sqrt{2gh}

Hence, the time when they pass each other is:

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

b) When they are passing the speed of each one is:

For ball 1:

v_{f_{1}} = - gt = -g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = - 0.71\sqrt{gh}

The minus sign is because ball 1 is going down.

For ball 2:

v_{f_{2}} = v_{0_{2}} - gt = \sqrt{2gh} - g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = (\sqrt{1} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})*\sqrt{gh} = 0.41\sqrt{gh}

Therefore, taking the magnitude of ball 1 we can see that it has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height of the ball is:

For ball 1:

y_{1} = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = h - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h

For ball 2:

y_{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = \sqrt{2gh}*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h

Then, when they are passing the height is the same for both = 3h/4.

I hope it helps you!

A typical cell phone charger is rated to transfer a maximum of 1.0 Coulomb of charge per second. Calculate the maximum number of
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The maximum no. of electrons- 2.25\times 10^{22}

Solution:

As per the question:

Maximum rate of transfer of charge, I = 1.0 C/s

Time, t = 1.0 h = 3600 s

Rate of transfer of charge is current, I

Also,

I = \frac{Q}{t}

Q = ne

where

n = no. of electrons

Q = charge in coulomb

I = current

Thus

Q = It

Thus the charge flow in 1. 0 h:

Q = 1.0\times 3600 = 3600\ C

Maximum number of electrons, n is given by:

n = \frac{Q}{e}

where

e = charge on an electron = 1.6\times 10^{- 19}\ C

Thus

n = \frac{3600}{1.6\times 10^{- 19}} = 2.25\times 10^{22}

Sara and Greg built an electromagnet in science class. They wrapped 50 turns of copper wire around an iron nail and hooked the e
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:Wrap more turns of wire around the nail.

Explanation:The power of an electromagnet is directly proportional to the amount of electricity passing through that electromagnet.

Now,if they increase the number of rounds of the copper coil,the electricity conducting surface amount will also increase.

And that's why the electricity passing through that electromagnet will increase along with the electromagnetic power of that electromagnet.

• Increasing the battery voltage :

If they increase the battery voltage,the electricity which is passing through that electromagnet will also increase in amount .

And as discussed previously,the increasing amount of electricity will also increase the electromagnetic abilities of the electromagnet.

F. You get inside and you have to push the cart across a thick carpet. Describe
aev [14]

Answer:

Forces Due to Friction and Newton's Third Law

The forces on the cart include the forward force the horse exerts on the cart and the backward force due to friction at the ground, acting on the wheels. At rest, or at constant velocity, these two are equal in size, because the acceleration of the cart is zero.
