Answer: height of building = 18.8m

Explanation: The question is a projectile motion, a two dimensional motion with a vertical constant acceleration (g = - 9.8m/s²) and a constant horizontal velocity (thus making horizontal component of acceleration zero).

From the question, distance between bottom of building and where the object lands = 64m, initial velocity for throwing the object = 19.6m/s

The horizontal range formulae is given as

d= vt

Where d= horizontal range = 64m, v = initial velocity of throw.

64 = 19.6 × t

t = 64/ 19.6

t = 3.265 s.

Height (h) of the building is gotten by using the formulae

h =vt - 1/2gt²

h = (19.6×3.265) - 1/2×9.8×(3.265)²

h = 71.05 - (104.47/2)

h = 71.05 - 52.235

h = 18.8m

Bill and Nageen have each built an electric motor and they are testing them by having them lift boxes. Bill's motor lifts a box
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Bill's motor

Explanation:

Bill's motor lifts a box 0.39 metres in 2 seconds.

Nageen's motor lifts the same box 0.35 metres in 2 seconds.

Power = Work done/time

or

P=\dfrac{mg\times h}{t}

Power of bill's motor,

P_1=\dfrac{m\times 9.8\times 0.39}{2}\\\\P_1=1.91m\ Watts

Power of Nageen's motor,

P_2=\dfrac{m\times 9.8\times 0.35}{2}\\\\P_2=1.71m\ Watts

So, Bill's motor applied more power to the box.

How can the distance between the first bright band and the central band be increased in a double-slit experiment?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Decrease the slit separation, increase the distance of the screen from the slits, and increase the wavelength.

Explanation:

The distance y from the central band to the first bright band is given by

y = \dfrac{ \lambda D}{d}

where \lambda is the wavelength of light (or any particle), D is the distance to the screen, and d is the slit separation.

From this equation we see that, by increasing the wavelength \lambda , increasing the distance from the screen D, and decreasing the slit separation d, we increase the distance between the first bright band and the central band.

Therefore, the 2nd choice "<em>Decrease the slit separation, increase the distance of the screen from the slits, and increase the wavelength.</em>" is correct.
