Answer:

Longitudinal waves have the same direction of vibration as their direction of travel. This means that the movement of the medium is in the same direction as the motion of the wave.

A man with a weight of 100 N is located
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Given,

  mass of man = 100 N = 10 kg

   height = h = 25m

   since the man does not move anything with his force, work done by him is zero

   work done on the man = gain in potential energy

   P.E=mgh

   P.E=10×9.8×25

  P.E=2.45KJ

Explanation:

so, potential energy gained by man is 2.45 KJ

A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10.0 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–d
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

The balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Velocity of air balloon along +X axis =10 m/s

velocity of ball=4 m/s along + X axis

the velocity of balloon gets added to the velocity of ball. So the resultant velocity of the balloon=10+4 = 14 m/s

time taken= 30 s

The distance traveled is given by d= v t

d= 14 (30)

d= 420 m

Thus the balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

To study the properties of various particles, you can accelerate the particles with electric fields. A positron is a particle wi
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

(a) Acceleration of positron is 6.03 x 10¹³ m/s²

(b) Speed of positron after 8.70 x 10⁻⁹ s is 5.24 x 10⁵ m/s

Explanation:

Given :

Constant electric field, E = 343 N/C

Mass of positron, m = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

Charge of positron, q = +e = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

(a) Coulomb force on the positron is determine by the relation :

F = q x E    ....(1)

But, force is also equals to product of mass and acceleration. So,

F = ma  .....(2)

Here a is acceleration.

From equation (1) and (2).

m x a = q x E

a=\frac{qE}{m}

Substitute the values of q, E and m in the above equation.

a=\frac{1.6\times10^{-19}\times 343}{9.1\times10^{-31} }

a = 6.03 x 10¹³ m/s²

(b) Initially, the positron is at rest, so its initial speed is zero.

The equation of motion for positron is :

v = u + at

Here v is final speed, u is initial speed and t is time.

Since, u is zero, so the equation becomes :

v = at

Substitute 8.70 x 10⁻⁹ s for t and 6.03 x 10¹³ m/s² for a in the above equation.

v = 6.03 x 10¹³ x 8.70 x 10⁻⁹ m/s

v = 5.24 x 10⁵ m/s

An amateur astronomer grinds a double convex lens whose surfaces have radii of curvature of 40 cm and 60 cm. The glass has an in
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

44.4cm

Explanation:

glass has an index of refraction .n = 1.54

radii of curvature of 40 cm R1 = 40 by

radii of curvature of 600 cm R2 = 60

Now, by lens maker formula

1/f = (n - 1) (1/R1 - 1/R2)

Putting in the given values for n = 1.54 , we get f = 22.2

\frac{1}{f} = (1.54 -1) (\frac{1}{40cm} -\frac{1}{(-60cm)} )

\frac{1}{f} = 0.0225

f = 1 / 0.0225

f = 44.4cm

so, focal length in air will be  = 44.4 cm
