A 0.75 kg rock is projected from the edge of the top of a building with an initial velocity of 11.9 m/s at an angle 59◦ above th

e horizontal. The building is 14.2 m in height. At what horizontal distance, x, from the base of the building will the rock strike the ground? Assume the ground is level and that the side of the building is vertical. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2.

Answer:

12.76 m.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 11.9 m/s

Angle of projection (θ) = 59°

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Horizontal distance (i.e Range) (R) =?

The horizontal distance other wise known as range from the base of the building to which the rock will strike the ground can be obtained as follow:

R = u²Sine2θ / g

R = 11.9² × Sine (2×59) / 9.8

R = 141.61 × Sine 118 / 9.8

R = 12.76 m

Therefore, the horizontal distance from the base of the building to which the rock will strike the ground is 12.76 m

A car battery has a rating of 170 ampere-hours. This rating is one indication of the total charge that the battery can provide t
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

612000 C

Explanation:

Current, I, is given as the rate of flow of charge, that is:

I = Δq / Δt

where q = electric charge

t = time taken

This implies that:

Δq = I * Δt

The battery rating is 170 Ampere-hours, therefore:

Δq = 170 * 1 hour

But 1 hour = 3600 seconds;

=> Δq = 170 * 3600 = 612000 C

The total charge that the battery can provide is 612000 C.

Light shined through a single slit will produce a diffraction pattern. Green light (565 nm) is shined on a slit with width 0.210
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:(a)9.685 mm

(b)4.184 mm

Explanation:

Given

Wavelength of light (\lambda )=565nm \approx 565\times 10^{-9}m

Width of slit(b)=0.210

(a)Width of central maximum located 1.80m from slit

=\frac{2\lambda L}{b}

=\frac{2\times 565\times 10^{-9}\times 1.8}{0.210\times 10^{-3}}

=9.685 mm

(b)Width of the first order bright fringe

Y_1=\frac{\lambda \times L}{b}

Y_1=\frac{565\times 10^{-9}\times 1.8}{0.210\times 10^{-3}}

Y_1=4.84mm
