Answer:

If a particle is affected by a wave, then the particles are displaced. They move along the direction of the wave. Hence, After a wave passes through a medium, particles in the medium are moved along with the wave.

A basketball player shoots toward a basket 5.3 m away and 3.0 m above the floor. If the ball is released 1.9 m above the floor a

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Vi = 8.28 m/s

Explanation:

This problem is related to the projectile motion.

As we know there are two components of motion associated with this, the horizontal component and vertical component.

The horizontal distance covered by the ball is

Vx*t = x

Vx*t = 5.3

Vx = 5.3/t eq. 1

Also we know that

Vx = Vicos(60)

Vx = Vi*0.5 eq. 2

equate eq. 1 and eq. 2

5.3/t = Vi*0.5

5.3/0.5 = Vi*t

Vi*t = 10.6 eq. 3

The vertical distance is

Vy = y1 + Vyi*t - 0.5gt²

also we know that

Vyi = Visin(60)

Vyi = Vi*0.866

It is given that V1 = 1.9 m and and Vy = 3 m is the vertical distance

3 = 1.9 + Vi*0.866*t - 0.5gt²

3 = 1.9 + Vi*0.866*t - 0.5(9.8)t²

3 = 1.9 + 0.866(Vi*t) - 0.5(9.8)t²

1.1 = 0.866(Vi*t) - 4.9t²

0.866(Vi*t) = 4.9t² + 1.1

substitute Vi*t = 10.6 in above equation

0.866(10.6) = 4.9t² + 1.1

9.18 = 4.9t² + 1.1

4.9t² = 8.08

t² = 8.08/4.9

t² = 1.648

t = 1.28 sec

Finally, initial speed can be found by substituting the value of t into eq. 3

Vi*t = 10.6

Vi = 10.6/t

Vi = 10.6/1.28

Vi = 8.28 m/s

What are (a) the charge and (b) the charge density on the surface of a conducting sphere of radius 0.20 m whose potential is 240

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

(a) charge q=5.33 nC

(b) charge density σ=10.62 nC/m²

Explanation:

Given data

radius r=0.20 m

potential V=240 V

coulombs constant k=9×10⁹Nm²/C²

To find

(a) charge q

(b) charge density σ

Solution

For (a) charge q

$V_{potential}=kq/r\\ q=rV_{potential}/k\\q=\frac{(0.20)(240)}{9*10^{9} }\\ q=5.333*10^{-9}C\\or\\ q=5.33nC$

For (b) charge density

As charge density σ is given as:

σ=q/(4πR²)

σ=(5.333×10⁻⁹) / (4π×(0.20)²)

σ=10.62 nC/m²

A long thin rod of mass M and length L is situated along the y axis with one end at the origin. A small spherical mass m1 is pla

Yuri [45]

Answer:

$= - 5.65\times 10^{-2} J$

Explanation:

Given data:

L =2.00 *10^4 m

d = 18*10^4 m

M = 18 *10^6 kg

m_1 = 8*10^6 kg

Gravitational energy is given as

$U =- G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r}$

mass per unit length is given as

$\sigma = \frac{M}{L} = \frac{18 \times 10^6}{2\times 10^4 m} = 900 kg/m$

calculating potential energy

$dU ==-G\int_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4} \frac{m_1 *dm}{r}$

$=-G\int_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4} \frac{m_1 *\sigma dr}{r}$

$=-G*m_1*\sigma\int_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4} \frac{dr}{r}$

$=-G*m_1*\sigma \left | ln r \right |_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4}$

$=-G*m_1*\sigma ln(1.125)$

$=-6.673 \times 10^{-11}*8*10^6*900*ln(1.125)$

$= - 5.65\times 10^{-2} J$

Why are insulators important?

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

An insulator opposes the flow of electricity. Insulators are important to keep us safe from electricity. The wire that carries electricity to your computer or television is covered with a rubber-like insulator that protects you from getting electrocuted. Good insulators include glass, the air, and paper.
