The final velocity of the pebble as it hits the ground is 21.5 m/s.

We have to use the equation;

v = u + gt

Where;

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity

t = time

Since the pebble was dropped from a height, u =0 m/s, hence,

v = gt

v = 9.8 ms-2 × 2.2 s

v = 21.5 m/s

The x coordinate of an electron is measured with an uncertainty of 0.200 mm . What is vx, the x component of the electron's velo
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Velocity of electron along x direction is 57.9 m/s

Explanation:

The uncertainty in x coordinate of electron, Δx = 0.200 mm = 0.2 x 10⁻³ m

Let vₓ be the x component of electrons velocity.

The uncertainty in x component of electrons momentum is:

Δpₓ = mΔvₓ

Here m is mass of the electron.

The uncertainty in velocity x component is 1% i.e. 0.01.

So, the above equation can be written as :

Δpₓ = 0.01mvₓ    ....(1)

The minimum uncertainty principle is:

\Delta x\Delta p_{x} = \frac{h}{2\pi }    ....(2)

Here h is Planck's constant.

From equation (1) and (2),

\Delta x\times0.01m v_{x} = \frac{h}{2\pi }

Substitute 0.2 x 10⁻³ m for Δx, 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg for m and 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ m²kg/s in the above equation.

0.2\times10^{-3} \times0.01\times9.1\times10^{-31}\times v_{x} = \frac{6.626\times10^{-34} }{2\pi }

vₓ = 57.9 m/s

What does it mean if the slope is zero?
kiruha [24]
The object is not moving.

My explanation is that say if you sit a ball on the table and it is a smooth surface with no bumps or anything. The ball will sit still since it can’t roll unless you hit it.

Hope this helps!

When the burner in a hot air balloon is turned on, the temperature of the air in the balloon ________ causing its volume to ____
Georgia [21]

<u>Answer</u>

Part 1) Increase

Part 2) expand

Part 3) rise


<u>Explanation</u>

When the air is heated the molecules gain kinetic energy and starts to collide with walls of the ballon making it to increase it size.

Thus the volume of the balloon expands. When this happens the balloon and its content becomes less dense and it rises.

According to quantum physics, measuring velocity of a tiny particle with an electromagnet
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Option A.

Explanation:

In quantum physics <u>there is a law to relate the position and the momentum of the particle</u>, it says that if we know with precision where is a quantum particle, we can not know the momentum of this particle, in other words, the velocity of the particle. So, when we measure the velocity of the particle we find the correct value of the particle, but we can not determine with accuracy where is the particle. This law is known as the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and, its expressed as follows:    

\Delta x \Delta p \geq \frac{h}{4 \pi}

<em>where Δx: is the position's uncertainty, Δp: is the momentum's uncertainty and h: is the Planck constant.</em>  

Therefore, the correct answer is A: measuring the velocity of a tiny particle with an electromagnet has no effect on the velocity of the particle. It only affects the determination of the particle's position.      

I hope it helps you!
