A ball is thrown straight upward with an initial velocity of 18.5m/s at the edge of a cliff that is 25.0m below the initial poin

t. What is the velocity of the ball at its maximum height?

The velocity of the ball at its maximum height is zero (0).

The given parameters;

<em>initial vertical velocity of the ball, </em> $v_y_0$ <em> = 18.5 m/s</em>
<em>height of the cliff, h = 25</em>

<em />

In a projectile motion, as the object ascends upwards, its vertical velocity decreases and eventually becomes zero as the object reaches maximum height.

This <em>velocity</em> starts to increase again as the object descends downwards and finally becomes maximum before the object hits the ground.

Thus, we can conclude that the velocity of the ball at its maximum height is zero (0).

Radiation from the Sun reaching Earth (just outside the atmosphere) has an intensity of 1.39 kW/m2. (a) Assuming that Earth (and

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

$F=5.8\times 10^{8}\ N$

$F=35.57\times 10^{21}\ N$

Explanation:

Given that

Intensity I

$I= 1.39\ KW/m^2$

$Speed\ of \ light = 2.99\times 10^8\ m/s$

Radius of earth,R = 6370 Km

We know that surface area of earth, A

$A=\pi R^2$

$A=\pi (6370\times 10^3)^2\ m^2$

$A=1.27\times 10^{14}\ m^2$

As we know that pressure due to intensity given as

$P=\dfrac{I}{V}$

V =Velocity of light

$V=3\times 10^8\ m/s$

$P=\dfrac{1.39\times 1000}{=3\times 10^8}$

$P=4.6\times 10^{-6}\ Pa$

We know that force F

F = P .A

$F=4.6\times 10^{-6}\times 1.27\times 10^{14}\ N$

$F=5.8\times 10^{8}\ N$

b)Gravitational force F

$F=G\dfrac{m.M}{r^2}$

$M = mass\ of\ sun = 2\times 10^{30} kg\\m = mass\ of\ earth = 6\times 10^{24}kg$

$r =1.5\times 10^{11}\ m$

$G =6.67\times 10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2$

So F

$F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \dfrac{2\times 10^{30}\times 6\times 10^{24}kg}{1.5\times 10^{11}}$

$F=35.57\times 10^{21}\ N$

Four astronauts are in a spherical space station. (a) If, as is typical, each of them breathes about 500 cm

mario62 [17]

Answer:

A) if each astronaut breathes about 500 cm³, the total volume of air breathed in a year is 14716.8m³.

B) The Diameter of this spherical space station should be 30.4m

Explanation:

The breathing frequency (according to Rochester encyclopedia) is about 12-16 breath per minute. if we take the mean value (14 breath per minute), we can estimate the total breaths of a person along a year:

$f_b=14\frac{br}{min} \cdot \frac{60min}{1hr} \frac{24hr}{1day}\frac{365day}{1year}=29433600\frac{br}{year}$

If we multiply this for the number of people in the station and the volume each breath needs, we obtain the volume breathed in a year.

The volume of a sphere is:

$V_{sph}=\frac{4\pi}{3}r^3$

So the diameter is:

$D=2r=2\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V_{sph}}{4\pi}} =30.4m$
