A ball is thrown upwards at 20.0 m/s from the top of a roof that is 10.0 meters above the ground and t = 4.84 seconds

The equation used to solve this problem is

s = vt - (1/2)gt^2

where s = the distance travelled (in this case, 10.0 meters), v = the initial velocity (in this case, 20.0 m/s), g = the acceleration due to gravity (in this case, 9.81 m/s^2), and t = the time (in this case, the time it takes for the ball to hit the ground).

Rearrange the equation to solve for t:

t = (2s/g) + (v^2/g^2)

Substitute the given values into the equation:

t = (2(10.0)/(9.81)) + (20.0^2/(9.81^2))

The electric field strength between the conducting plates would be 3.6 x 10⁵ V/m.

What is electric field strength?

Electric field strength (E) is a measure of the force exerted on a charged particle by an electric field. It is measured in units of volts per meter (V/m) or newtons per coulomb (N/C). An electric field can be created by a static charge or by a changing magnetic field. The strength of the electric field is affected by the distance from the source of the field, the charge of the source, and the permittivity of the medium. Electric fields are used in many applications, including in electric motors, generators, and particle accelerators. It is also used in the study of charges and the behavior of conductors and insulators.

The electric field strength (E) can be determined by using the equation: E = W / qd

Where,

W = energy of the ion (36.0 keV)

q = charge of the ion (doubly charged ion, so 2e)

d = distance between the plates (1.60 cm)

To convert keV to J and cm to m:

1 keV = 1.602176634 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

1cm = 0.01m

Therefore,

E = (36.0 x 1.602176634 x 10⁻¹⁶ J) / (2e x 0.01m)

E = (57.634 x 10⁻¹⁶J/C) / (2 x 1.602176634 x 10⁻¹⁹ C x 0.01m)

E = 3.6 x 10⁵ V/m

Answer:

1) [tex]t=4.16s[/tex]

2) [tex]s=44.10m[/tex]

3) [tex]v_{final}=40.84\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

Explanation:

a) How long till it hits the ground?

Since the person threw the ball perfectly horizontal, the ball has 0 vertical velocity at the start. In fact, it takes the same time for the ball to reach the ground if they dropped the ball instead of throwing. The acceleration in a vertical drop is gravity ([tex]a=9.81\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex])

Basically, we'll solve first part as if he just dropped the ball.

Use this linear motion formula:

[tex]s=v_{inital}(t_{final} -t_{initial})+1/2a(t_{final}-t_{inital})^2[/tex]

Since [tex]v_{initial} =0[/tex] we can remove that part from equation:

[tex]s=1/2a(t)^2[/tex]

[tex]85=1/2*9.81(t)^2[/tex] Plug and solve

[tex]170=9.81(t)^2[/tex]

[tex]17.33=t^2[/tex]

[tex]t=4.16s[/tex]

b) How far away does it land?

We will use the same formula above for horizontal motion.

[tex]s=v_{inital}(t_{final} -t_{initial})+1/2a(t_{final}-t_{inital})^2[/tex]

[tex]s=v(t)+0[/tex]  (Remove the last part since [tex]a=0[/tex])

[tex]s=10.6(4.16)[/tex]

[tex]s=44.096m[/tex]

c) How fast was it traveling vertically at the end?

Use this other linear motion formula for this step. s=85m (height of building).

[tex]v_{final} ^2-v_{initial} ^2=2as[/tex]

[tex]v_{final} ^2-0^2=2(9.81)*(85)[/tex] Started with 0 vertical velocity.

[tex]v_{final} ^2=1667.7[/tex]

[tex]v_{final}=40.837m/s[/tex]

According to the question of speed, a) 16.05 seconds does the ball hit the ground, b) 169.33 m far from the building will it land, c) 37.68 m/s is the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground.

What is speed?
Speed is the rate at which something moves or an object's rate of motion. It can be measured in metres per second, kilometres per hour, and miles per hour, and is often used to describe the motion of objects, such as vehicles, animals, or natural phenomena.

a. The time it takes for the ball to hit the ground is given by the equation t = (2×h)/v, where h is the height of the building (85 m) and v is the initial velocity of the ball (10.6 m/s). Plugging in the given values, we get t = (2×85)/10.6 = 16.05 seconds.

b. The distance from the building at which the ball will land is found using the equation x = vt, where v is the initial velocity (10.6 m/s) and t is the time it takes for the ball to hit the ground (16.05 seconds). Plugging in the given values, we get x = 10.6×16.05 = 169.33 m.

c. The velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground is determined by the equation v = √(2gh), where g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s2) and h is the height of the building (85 m). Plugging in the given values, we get v = √(2×9.8×85) = 37.68 m/s. This is the velocity of the ball just before it impacts the ground.

Explanation:

As per the known fact, the mass is independent of acceleration due to gravity of planet.

As the radius of curvature and focal length of the mirror is bottom half of the mirror is same as earlier, so the image formation by this mirror will not change. As a result, the bottom half of the spherical mirror will reflect an image that is an exact replica of the image it projected prior to being chopped.

Only the aperture area will be cut in half when a mirror is cut in half horizontally; the radius of curvature remains unchanged.

The spherical mirror has a radius of curvature that is twice its focal length. Because the radius of curvature remains unchanged when the mirror is cut horizontally, the focal length of the bottom portion will be the same as in the initial situation.

Assuming that range aliasing can be tolerated and there are no other targets between the moon and Earth, a pulse repetition frequency of around 10-20 MHz would likely be sufficient for mapping the moon surface.

The maximum pulse repetition frequency (PRF) that can be used for mapping the surface of the moon is determined by the need to avoid range ambiguities and to achieve the desired resolution. The PRF is the number of pulses emitted per second. A high PRF allows for high resolution mapping but also increases the chance of range ambiguities.

If range ambiguities can be tolerated, a high PRF can be used to achieve a high resolution map. The altitude of the spacecraft, the size of the antenna, and the desired resolution of the map are also factors that determine the maximum PRF.

Gravitational potential energy may be characterized as a type of energy that is typically possessed or acquired by an object due to an alteration in its position when it is present in a gravitational field. In more simple terms, it can be revealed that gravitational potential energy is an energy that is associated with gravitational force or gravity.

According to the question,

The formula for gravitational potential energy is as follows:

where m is the mass (in kg) of the body. G is the magnitude of the gravitational field that the body is exposed to. H is the height at which the body is located.

First, you have to calculate the gravitational potential energy of the car on point A, i.e. U₁= (2.0 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(0 m)= 0 J.

Second, the Gravitational potential energy of the car on point B is found as, U₂= (2.0 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(0.25 m)= 4.90 J.

Now, you must have to calculate the change in the car’s gravitational potential energy: ΔU= U₂-U₁= 4.90 J - 0 J= 4.90 J.

If we neglect the effect of air friction, then the motion of the ball a short time later will be a combination of horizontal and vertical motion.

If you stand on tall cliff and throw ball so that it is initially moving purely horizontally and neglecting the effect of air friction, motion of the ball a short time later will be combination of horizontal and vertical motion. This is because the only force acting on ball is gravity, which will pull the ball downwards. Therefore, ball will experience a vertical acceleration due to gravity, while continuing to move horizontally at constant velocity.

Motion of the ball is a parabolic path, which is the trajectory of projectile under the influence of gravity.
