Answer:

The time taken for the paint ball to hit the ground is t =  2.143 \ s

The distance of the landing point from the tower is d = 192.86 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The height of the tower is h =  45 \ m

    The speed of the paintball in the horizontal direction is  v_x =  90 \  m/s

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

      h =  ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2

Here u is the initial  velocity of the paintball in the vertical direction and the value is 0 m/s , this because the ball was fired horizontally

         a is equivalent to g  = 9.8\ m/s^2

        t is the time taken for the paintball to hit the ground

   So    

       45  =  0* t + \frac{1}{2} 9.8 * t^2

=>    t =  2.143 \ s

Generally the distance of its landing position from the tower is

         d = v  *  t

=>      d = 90 *  2.143

=>    d = 192.86 \  m

Answer:

The electric field at that point is  E = 7500 \ N/C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

       The  radius of the inner circle is r_i  =  0.80  \ m

        The  radius of the outer circle is  r_o  =  1.20 \ m

       The  charge on the spherical shell q_n  =  -500nC  = -500*10^{-9} \ C

      The magnitude of the point charge at the center is  q_c =  + 300 nC  =  + 300 * 10^{-9} \ C

        The  position we are considering is  x =  0.60 m  from the center

Generally  the  electric field  at the distance x =  0.60 m  from the center  is mathematically represented as

                 E =  \frac{k *  q_c   }{x^2}

substituting values  

                  E =  \frac{k *  q_c   }{x^2}

where  k is  the coulomb constant with value k = 9*10^{9}  \ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}.

     substituting values

                  E =  \frac{9*10^9  *  300 *10^{-9}}{0.6^2}

                 E = 7500 \ N/C

A detailed explanation of static and dynamic friction . plsssss​
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Static friction is what keeps the box from moving without being pushed, and it must be overcome with a sufficient opposing force before the box will move. Kinetic friction (also referred to as dynamic friction) is the force that resists the relative movement of the surfaces once they're in motionExplanation:

Question 5 of 10
jonny [76]

Answer:

A. The particle model, because only high-energy frequencies of light  can remove electrons .

Explanation:

Each photon of blue light has higher energy than each photon of red light has  . So when each photon strikes each electron , it gets ejected . But the photon of red light has not sufficient energy to eject electron . Once the photon of red light strikes the electron , the energy is wasted off . Energy of photon can not be accumulated . Thus photon behaves like particle .
