Answer:

Negative acceleration occurs when an object slows down in the positive direction.

Negative acceleration occurs when an object speeds up in the negative direction.

Positive acceleration occurs when an object speeds up in the positive direction.

Positive acceleration occurs when an object slows down in the negative direction.

Explanation:

Basically same sign is speeding up and different sign is slowing down

With what minimum speed must you toss a 110 g ball straight up to just touch the 11-m-high roof of the gymnasium if you release

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

v = 13.79 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of ball = 110 g

height = 11 m

ball is released from = 1.3 m

minimum speed = ?

using conservation of energy

Potential energy is conserved in the form of kinetic energy

$P E =KE$

$m g h= \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$v^2 = 2 g h$

$v=\sqrt{2 g h}$

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times (11-1.3)}$

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 9.7}$

$v=\sqrt{190.12}$

v = 13.79 m/s

A beam of red light is made to pass through two slits that are 3.55 E-3 meters apart. On a screen 2.25 meters away from the slit

JulsSmile [24]

I am assuming you know the relation obtained between slit width, distance of screen from slits, distance of interference pattern obtained on the screen from the center and the wavelength of monochromatic light used in Young's Double Slit experiment.
λ = $\frac{y*d}{D} = \frac{3.55*10^{-3}*1.25*10^{-4} }{2.25} = 1.97*10^{-7} m$
λ ~ 1.97 ×10⁻⁷m
