19) A child on a sled starts from rest at the top of a 15.0° slope. If the trip to the bottom takes 15.2 s,
sveticcg [70]

Answer: 288.8 m

Explanation:

We have the following data:

t=15.2 s is the time it takes to the child to reach the bottom of the slope

V_{o}=0 is the initial velocity (the child started from rest)

\theta=15\° is the angle of the slope

d is the length of the slope

Now, the Force exerted on the sled along the ramp is:

F=ma (1)

Where m is the mass of the sled and a its acceleration

In addition, if we draw a free body diagram of this sled, the force along the ramp will be:

F=mg sin \theta (2)

Where g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity

Then:

ma=mg sin \theta (3)

Finding a:

a=g sin \theta (4)

a=9.8 m/s^{2} sin(15\°) (5)

a=2.5 m/s^{2} (6)

Now, we will use the following kinematic equations to find d:

V=V_{o}+at (7)

V^{2}=V_{o}^{2}+2ad (8)

Where V is the final velocity

Finding V from (7):

V=at=(2.5 m/s^{2})(15.2 s) (9)

V=38 m/s (10)

Substituting (10) in (8):

(38 m/s)^{2}=2(2.5 m/s^{2})d (11)

Finding d:

d=288.8 m

A light ray hits a plane surface at 20 degrees. What is the angle between the incident and reflected rays.
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

140°

Explanation:

The law of reflection states that the angle of redlection equals to the angle of incidence.

When light rays hit surface at 20°, they also leave the surface at the same angle

Since the whole surface has 180° then subtracting these two angles from total angle gives the the angle between the incident and reflected rays.

180°-20°-20°=140°

The angle of incidence and reflection are equal hence 140/2=70°

The question needed the angle between the incident and reflected rays which is already calculated as 140°

A tennis ball is shot vertically upward in an evacuated chamber inside a tower with an initial speed of 20.0 m/s at time t=0s. W
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

at the highest point of the path the acceleration of ball is same as acceleration due to gravity

Explanation:

At the highest point of the path of the ball the speed of the ball becomes zero as the acceleration due to gravity will decelerate the motion of ball due to which the speed of ball will keep on decreasing and finally it comes to rest

So here we will say that at the highest point of the path the speed of the ball comes to zero

now by the force diagram we can say that net force on the ball due to gravity is given by

F_g = mg

now the acceleration of ball is given as

a = \frac{F_g}{m}

a = \frac{mg}{m} = g

so at the highest point of the path the acceleration of ball is same as acceleration due to gravity
