Leni [432]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

B

Explanation:

We know the inital velocity is 16 m/s

Acclereation is -0.5 m/s^2

And that final velocity is 0

We need to find time

v _{f} = v _{i} + at

0 = 16 + ( - 0.5)t

- 16 =  - 0.5t

32 = t

The answer is B

The early workers in spectroscopy (Fraunhofer with the solar spectrum, Bunsen and Kirchhoff with laboratory spectra) discovered
Anestetic [448]

The hot gases produce their own characteristic pattern of spectral lines, which remain fixed as the temperature increases moderately.

<h3><u>Explanation: </u></h3>

A continuous light spectrum emitted by excited atoms of a hot gas with dark spaces in between due to scattered light of specific wavelengths is termed as an atomic spectrum. A hot gas has excited electrons and produces an emission spectrum; the scattered light forming dark bands are called spectral lines.

Fraunhofer closely observed sunlight by expanding the spectrum and a huge number of dark spectral lines were seen.  "Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff" discovered that when certain chemicals were burnt using a Bunsen burner, atomic spectra with spectral lines were seen. Atomic spectral pattern is thus a unique characteristic of any gas and can be used to independently identify presence of elements.

The spectrum change does not depend greatly on increasing temperatures and hence no significant change is observed in the emitted spectrum with moderate increase in temperature.

A pitcher exerts a force on a baseball that is 30 times the balls weight. How fast is the pitcher accelerating the ball?
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

 Pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

Explanation:

  Force applied on baseball = 30 times weight of the ball.

   Weight of ball = mg, where m is the mass of ball and g is acceleration due to gravity value.

  We have force applied is also equal to product of mass and acceleration.

                            F = ma = 30 x mg

                                 a = 30g

   So, pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

outward from a wall just above floor level. A 1.5 kg box sliding across a frictionless floor hits the end of the spring and comp
sweet [91]

Answer:

v = 0.489 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of a box, m = 1.5 kg

The compression in the spring, x = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

Let the spring constant of the spring is 85 N/m

We need to find the velocity of the box (v) when it hit the spring. It is based on the conservation of energy. The kinetic energy of spring before collision is equal to the spring energy after compression i.e.

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{85\times (0.065)^2}{1.5}} \\\\v=0.489\ m/s

So, the speed of the box is 0.489 m/s.
