A tennis ball with a speed of 15.7 m/s is moving perpendicular to a wall. After striking the wall, the ball rebounds in the oppo

site direction with a speed of 14.444 m/s. If the ball is in contact with the wall for 0.0099 s, what is the average acceleration of the ball while it is in contact with the wall? Take "toward the wall" to be the positive direction. Answer in units of m/s 2 .

Answer:

-3044.848m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial velocity = 15.7 m/s (u)

Final velocity = -14.444 m/s (v) velocity after striking moving opposite direction.

Time = 0.0099 s

Average acceleration :

change in velocity/ total time

= V - U/t

= -14.444 m/s - 15.7 m/s/0.0099 s

= -30.144/0.0099 s

= -3044.848m/s^2

The electric potential at the origin of an xy-coordinate system is 40 V. A -8.0-μC charge is brought from x = +∞ to that point.
vredina [299]

Answer:

-320 μJ.

Explanation:

Consider a point with an electrical charge of q. Assume that V is the electrical potential at the position of that charge. The electrical potential of that point charge will be equal to:

\text{Potential Energy} = q \cdot V.

Keep in mind that since both q and V might not be positive, the size of the electrical potential energy might not be positive, either.

For this point charge,

  • q = \rm -8.0\; \mu C; (that's -8.0 microjoules, which equals to \rm -8.0\times 10^{-6}\; J)
  • V = \rm 40\; V.

Hence its electrical potential energy:

\text{Potential Energy} = q\cdot V = \rm (-8.0\; \mu C) \times 40\; V = -320\; \mu J.

Why is this value negative? The electrical potential energy of a charge is equal to the work needed to bring that charge from infinitely far away all the way to its current position. Also, negative charges are attracted towards regions of high electrical potential. Bringing this \rm -8.0\; \mu C negative charge to the origin will not require any external work. Instead, this process will release 320 μJ of energy. As a result, the electrical potential energy is a negative value.

Ammonia gas occupies a volume of 0.450 L at a pressure of 96 kPa. What
Sauron [17]

Answer:

0.426 L

Explanation:

Boyles law is expressed as p1v1=p2v2 where

P1 is first pressure, v1 is first volume

P2 is second pressure, v2 is second volume.

Given information

P1=96 kPa, v1=0.45 l

P2=101.3 kpa

Unknown is v2

Making v2 the subject from Boyle's law

v2=\frac {p1v1}{p2}

Substituting the given values then

v2=\frac {96*0.45}{101.3}=0.4264560710760l\approx 0.426 l

Therefore, the volume is approximately 0.426 L

As a projectile falls, what happens to the components of velocity?
netineya [11]

Answer:

Option (c).

Explanation:

An object when when projected at an angle, will have some horizontal velocity and vertical velocity such that,

v_x=v\cos\theta\ \text{and}\ v_y=v\sin\theta

\theta is the angle of projection

The horizontal component of the projectile remains the same because there is no horizontal motion. Vertical component changes at every point.

As a projectile falls, vertical velocity increases in magnitude, horizontal velocity stays the same .
