A ball is thrown downward from the top of a 55.0 m tower with an initial speed of 11.0 m/s. Assuming negligible air resistance,

what is the speed of the ball just before hitting the ground?

I'm not positive however my guess is this.
KE=(1/2)mv^2
KE=(1/2)(55)(121)
KE=3327.5m/s^2
You might not want to use this tho.

After their loss to U of A, the ASU sumdevils traveled back to Tempe which is 187

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The average speed is 20.8 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed for the trip is given by:

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time elapsed

For the trip in this problem, we have:

d = 187 km = 187,000 m is the distance travelled

The initial time is 10:00 pm while the arriving time is 12:30 am: this means that the time elapsed is 2.5 hours. Converting into seconds,

$t = 2.5 h \cdot (60)(60)=9000 s$

Therefore, the average speed for the trip is

$v=\frac{187,000}{9000}=20.8 m/s$

In a particular case of an object in front of a spherical mirror with a focal length of +12.0 cm, the magnification is +4.00.(a)

salantis [7]

Answer:

9 cm

-36 cm

Explanation:

u = Object distance

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = 12

m = Magnification = 4

$m=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow 4=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow v=-4u$

Lens equation

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{12}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{-4u}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{12}=\frac{3}{4u}\\\Rightarrow u=9\ cm$

Object distance is 9 cm

$v=-4\times 9=-36\ cm$

Image distance is -36 cm (other side of object)

If two monochromatic light waves undergo destructive interference, the amplitude of the resultant wave is

lesya692 [45]

Answer: The amplitude is 0. (assuming that the amplitude ot both initial waves is the same)

Explanation:

When two monochromatic light waves of the same wavelength and same amplitude undergo destructive interference, means that the peak of one of the waves coincides with the trough of the other, so the waves "cancel" each other in that point in space.

Then if two light waves undergo destructive interference, the amplitude of the resultant wave in that particular point is 0.

You throw a bouncy rubber ball and a wet lump of clay, both of mass m, at a wall. Both strike the wall at speed v, but while the

lana [24]

Answer:

<em>The fifth option is the correct answer: mv; 2 mv</em>

Explanation:

<u>Change of Momentum</u>

Assume an object has a momentum p1 and after some interaction it now has a momentum p2, the change of momentum is

$\Delta p=p_2-p_1$

The momentum is computed as

$p=mv$

Where m is the mass of the object and v its speed. Now let's analyze the situation of both the ball and the clay.

The clay has an initial speed v and a mass m, thus its initial momentum is

$p_1=mv$

When it hits the wall, it sticks, thus its final speed is 0 and

$p_2=0$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=0-mv=-mv$

The absolute change is mv

Now for the ball, the initial condition is the same as it was for the clay, but the ball hits back at the same speed, thus its final momentum is

$p_2=-mv$

The change of momentum is

$\Delta p=-mv-mv=-2mv$

The absolute change is 2mv

The fifth option is the correct answer: mv; 2 mv
