A hockey puck sliding on smooth ice at 4 m/s comes to a 1-m-high hill. Will it make it to the top of the hill?

solniwko [45]3 years ago

Answer:

No  it will not make to the top of the hill  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The velocity is  v  =  4 \ m/s

    The height of the hill is  h  = 1 \  m

Generally from the law of energy conservation we have that

   The kinetic energy of the pluck at the level position =  The potential energy of the pluck at the maximum height the  pluck can get  to  

So

       \frac{1}{2}  * m * v^2 =  m *  g *  h_{max}

=>    \frac{1}{2}   * v^2 =    g *  h_{max}

=>     h_{max} =   \frac{0.5 * v^2}{g}

=>     h_{max} =  0.8163 \  m

Given that the maximum height which the pluck can get to at this speed given in the question is less than the height of the hill then conclusion will be that the pluck will not make it to the top of the hill

Estimate the number of atoms in 1 cm^3 of a solid
dexar [7]
Avogadro's number: 6.02 x 10^23 atoms is present in 1mol of a solid (i.e. 22, 400 cm3)

Hence, in 1 cm3, 6.02 x 10^23 /22400 atoms is present = 2 x 10 ^ 19 atoms.

What are the names of the 4 types of fronts? How are they created?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Stationary Front, warm front, cold front, Occluded Front.

Explanation:

Stationary Front. When the surface position of a front does not change (when two air masses are unable to push against each other; a draw), a stationary front is formed.

cold front is the leading edge of a cooler mass of air at ground level that replaces a warmer mass of air and lies within a pronounced surface trough of low pressure. It often forms behind an extratropical cyclone (to the west in the Northern Hemisphere, to the east in the Southern), at the leading edge of its cold air advection pattern—known as the cyclone's dry "conveyor belt" flow. Temperature differences across the boundary can exceed 30 °C (86 °F) from one side to the other. When enough moisture is present, rain can occur along the boundary. If there is significant instability along the boundary, a narrow line of thunderstorms can form along the frontal zone. If instability is weak, a broad shield of rain can move in behind the front, and evaporative cooling of the rain can increase the temperature difference across the front. Cold fronts are stronger in the fall and spring transition seasons and weakest during the summer.

A warm front is a density discontinuity located at the leading edge of a homogeneous warm air mass, and is typically located on the equator-facing edge of an isotherm gradient. Warm fronts lie within broader troughs of low pressure than cold fronts, and move more slowly than the cold fronts which usually follow because cold air is denser and less easy to remove from the Earth's surface. This also forces temperature differences across warm fronts to be broader in scale. Clouds ahead of the warm front are mostly stratiform, and rainfall gradually increases as the front approaches. Fog can also occur preceding a warm frontal passage. Clearing and warming is usually rapid after frontal passage. If the warm air mass is unstable, thunderstorms may be embedded among the stratiform clouds ahead of the front, and after frontal passage thundershowers may continue. On weather maps, the surface location of a warm front is marked with a red line of semicircles pointing in the direction of travel.

In meteorology, an occluded front is a weather front formed during the process of cyclogenesis. The classical view of an occluded front is that they are formed when a cold front overtakes a warm front, such that the warm air is separated (occluded) from the cyclone center at the surface. The point where the warm front becomes the occluded front is called the triple point; a new area of low-pressure that develops at this point is called a triple-point low. A more modern view of the formation process suggests that occluded fronts form directly during the wrap-up of the baroclinic zone during cyclogenesis, and then lengthen due to flow deformation and rotation around the cyclone.

In a Young's double-slit experiment, 610-nm-wavelength light is sent through the slits. The intensity at an angle of 2.95° from
Sliva [168]

Answer:

spacing between the slits is 405.32043 ×10^{-9}  m

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength = 610 nm

angle = 2.95°

central bright fringe = 85%

to find out

spacing between the slits

solution

we know that spacing between slit is

I = 4I_{0} × cos²∅/2

so

I/4I_{0}  = cos²∅/2

here I/4I_{0} is 85 % = 0.85

so

0.85 = cos²∅/2

cos∅/2 = √0.85

∅ = 2 ×cos^{-1} 0.921954

∅  = 45.56°

∅  = 45.56° ×π/180 = 0.7949 rad

and we know that here

∅  = 2π d sinθ / wavelength

so

d = ∅× wavelength /  ( 2π  sinθ )

put all value

d = 0.795 × 610×10^{-9} / ( 2π  sin2.95 )

d = 405.32043 ×10^{-9}  m

spacing between the slits is 405.32043 ×10^{-9}  m

A projectile is fired directly upward from the ground with an initial velocity of 112 f/sec its distance s above the ground afte
Travka [436]

Answer:

3.48 seconds

Explanation:

At maximum height Vf=0 m/s

Vf= Vi - g*t

⇒g*t= Vi

⇒t= Vi/g

⇒t= 112/32.17 sec

⇒ t= 3.48 s

so the projectile will achieve its maximum height in 3.48 seconds.
