Force=300N
Mass=60kg

Find Acceleration

$\\ \rm\longmapsto F=ma$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto a=\dfrac{-300}{60}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto a=-5m/s^2$

Now

u=50m/s
v=20m/s

Using 1st equation of kinematics

$\\ \rm\longmapsto v=u+at$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto t=\dfrac{20-50}{-5}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto t=\dfrac{-30}{-5}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto t=6$

A completely inelastic collision occurs between two balls of wet putty that move directly toward each other along a vertical axi

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

$y=2.64m$

Explanation:

Given data

Ball one

mass m₁=3.0kg

velocity v₁=20 m/s

Ball second

mass m₂=2.0 kg

velocity v₂=12 m/s

First we need the speed of combined ball.Since the system conserves the linear momentum

$p_{i}=p_{f}\\m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=m_{t}v_{t}$

So the combined velocity vt is:

$v_{t}=\frac{m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}}{m_{t}}\\$

Since the two balls 1 and 2 are moving in opposite direction

So

$v_{t}=\frac{m_{1}v_{1}-m_{2}v_{2}}{m_{t}}\\$

Substitute the given values

$v_{t}=\frac{(3kg)(20m/s)-(2kg)(12m/s)}{(3+2)kg}\\ v_{t}=7.2 m/s$

We have the equation for motion with constant acceleration is given by:

$v^2=v_{o}^2+2g(y-y_{o})\\$

At initial position y₀=0 and vt=v-v₀

So

$v^{2}=v_{o}^2+2g(y-0)\\ y=\frac{v^2-v_{o}^2}{2g}\\ y=\frac{v_{t}^2}{2g}\\ y=\frac{(7.2m/s)^2}{2(9.8m/s^2)}\\ y=2.64m$

Irina finds an unlabeled box of fine needles, and wants to determine how thick they are. A standard ruler will not do the job, a

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

$d=\frac{1.22\times 640\times 10^{-9}\times 21.7}{7.35\times 10^{-2}}=2305.21\times 10^{-7}m$

Explanation:

The expression which represent the first diffraction minima by a circular aperture is given by $d sin\Theta =1.22\lambda$ --------eqn 1

The angle through which the first minima is diffracted is given by $tan\Theta =\frac{y_1}{D}$ ---------eqn 2

As $\Theta$ is very small so we can write $sin\Theta =tan\Theta$

So from eqn 1 and eqn 2 we can write

$y_1=\frac{1.22\lambda D}{d}$ --------eqn 3

Here $y_1$ is the position of first maxima D is the distance of screen from the circular aperture d is the diameter of aperture

It is given that diameter of circular aperture is 14.7 cm so $y_1=\frac{14.7}{2}=7.35 \ cm$

Now putting all these value in eqn 3

$d=\frac{1.22\lambda D}{y_1}$

$d=\frac{1.22\times 640\times 10^{-9}\times 21.7}{7.35\times 10^{-2}}=2305.21\times 10^{-7}m$

A green light is submerged 2.70 m beneath the surface of a liquid with an index of refraction 1.31. What is the radius of the ci

Anettt [7]

Answer:

The radius is $r = 3.1905 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance beneath the liquid is $d = 2.70 \ m$

The refractive index of the liquid is $n_i = 1.31$

Now the critical value is mathematically represented as

$\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{n_i} ]$

substituting values

$\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{131} ]$

$\theta = 49.76^o$

Using SOHCAHTOA rule we have that

$tan \theta = \frac{ r}{d}$

=> $r = d * tan \theta$

substituting values

$r = 2.7 * tan (49.76)$

$r = 3.1905 \ m$

musickatia [10]

Answer:

The correct option is;

C. 1,715 m

Explanation:

We are given the information from the group of teen at the City edge

Time of arrival of explosion sound = 5 s after sighting

Time of sighting explosion = 5 s before hearing the boom

Speed of sound in air ≈ 343 m/s

Speed of light = 299,792 km/s

Therefore, distance covered by sound in 5 seconds is given by the following equation;

$Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

$\therefore 343 \ m/s= \frac{Distance}{5 \, s}$

Hence Distance = 343 m/s × 5 s = 1715 m

To check, we compare the time it would take for the light to cover 1715 m

That is $Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed} = \frac{1715}{299,792,000} = 0.00000572 \, s$ which is instantaneous hence the distance can be approximated by the time duration for the speed of sound.

Therefore, the distance of the students from the factory is approximately 1,715 m
