Physics
1 answer:
jasenka [17]3 years ago

Answer:

1.

A. Vf = 29.4 m/s

B. h = 44.1 m

2.

A. Vf = 24.5 m/s

B. h = 30.625 m

3.

A. Vf = 5.5 m/s

4.

A. t = 3.03 s

B. Vf = 29.7 m/s  

Explanation:

1.

A.

using 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + gt

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s (since, book starts from rest)

g = 9.8 m/s²

t = time = 3 s

Therefore,

Vf = 0 m/s + (9.8 m/s²)(3 s)

<u>Vf = 29.4 m/s</u>

<u></u>

B.

using 2nd equation of motion:

h = Vi t + (1/2)gt²

h = (0 m/s)(3 s) + (1/2)(9.8 m/s²)(3 s)²

<u>h = 44.1 m</u>

<u></u>

2.

A.

using 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + gt

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s (since, book starts from rest)

g = 9.8 m/s²

t = time = 2.5 s

Therefore,

Vf = 0 m/s + (9.8 m/s²)(2.5 s)

<u>Vf = 24.5 m/s</u>

<u></u>

B.

using 2nd equation of motion:

h = Vi t + (1/2)gt²

h = (0 m/s)(2.5 s) + (1/2)(9.8 m/s²)(2.5 s)²

<u>h = 30.625 m</u>

<u></u>

3.

A.

using 3rd equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 3 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = height = 2 m

Therefore,

2(9.8 m/s²)(2 m) = Vf² - (3 ms)²

Vf² = 39.2 m²/s² - 9 m²/s²

Vf = √30.2 m²/s²

<u>Vf = 5.5 m/s</u>

4.

A.

using 2nd equation of motion:

h = Vi t + (1/2)gt²

where,

h = height = 45 m

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s (since, photo copier was initially at rest)

t = time = ?

g = 9.8 m/s²

45 m = (0 m/s)(t) + (1/2)(9.8 m/s²)(t)²

t² = 2(45 m)/(9.8 m/s²)

t = √9.18 s²

<u>t = 3.03 s</u>

<u></u>

B.

using 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + gt

Vf = 0 m/s + (9.8 m/s²)(3.03 s)

<u>Vf = 29.7 m/s</u>

What is the momentum of a 200 kg football player running west at a speed of 8m/s
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 1600 kgm/s</h3>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>momentum = mass × velocity</h3>

From the question

mass = 200 kg

velocity / speed = 8m/s

We have

momentum = 200 × 8

We have the final answer as

<h3>1600 kgm/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

A book falls off a shelf that and hits the ground at 10.0 m/s. How far did it fall?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the book is a free fall motion, so it is an uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. Therefore we can find the final velocity by using the equation:

where

u = 0 is the initial speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

d = 10.0 m is the distance covered by the book

Substituting data, we find

In a double-slit experiment, the third-order maximum for light of wavelength 490 nm is located 15 mm from the central bright spo
jeka94

Answer:

The distance from the central bright spot are 156.8\times10^{-3}\ mm and 142.9\times10^{-3}\ mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength = 490 nm

Distance y= 15 mm

Length L=1.6 m

New wavelength = 670

We need to calculate the distance from the central bright spot

Using formula of distance

y= \dfrac{m\lambda L}{d}

d=\dfrac{m\lambda L}{y}

Put the value into the formula

d=\dfrac{3\times490\times10^{-9}\times1.6}{15\times10^{-3}}

d=156.8\times10^{-6}\ m

d=156.8\times10^{-3}\ mm

We need to calculate the distance from the central bright spot for new wavelength

Using formula of distance

d=\dfrac{m\lambda L}{y}

Put the value into the formula

d=\dfrac{2\times670\times10^{-9}\times1.6}{15\times10^{-3}}

d=142.9\times10^{-6} m

d=142.9\times10^{-3}\ mm

Hence, The distance from the central bright spot are 156.8\times10^{-3}\ mm and 142.9\times10^{-3}\ mm.
