A ball is thrown upward from a height of 432 feet above the ground, with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. From physics it is known that the velocity at time t is v (t )equals 96 minus 32 t feet per second. a) Find s(t), the function giving the height of the ball at time t. b) How long will the ball take to reach the ground? c) How high will the ball go?
Answer;
A)S(t)=96t-16t² +432
B)it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.
C)864feet
Explanation:
We were given an initial height of 432 feet.
And v(t)= 96-32t
A) we are to Find s(t), the function giving the height of the ball at time t
The position, or heigth, is the integrative of the velocity. So
S(t)= ∫(96-32)dt
S(t)=96t-16t² +K
S(t)=96t-16t² +432
In which the constant of integration K is the initial height, so K= 432
b) we need to know how long will the ball take to reach the ground
This is t when S(t)= 0
S(t)=96t-16t² +432
-16t² +96t +432=0
This is quadratic equation, if you solve using factorization method we have
t= -3 or t= 9
Therefore, , t is the instant of time and it must be a positive value.
So it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.
C)V=s/t
Velocity= distance/ time
=96=s/9sec
S=96×9
=864feet
By applying the integrations,
(a) [tex]S = 96t-16t^2+432[/tex]
(b) Time will be "t = 9".
(c) Height will be "576"
Given:
Height,
423 feetInitial velocity,
96 feet/secAccording to the question,
(a)
Integrate v:
[tex]S = 96t-16t^2+C[/tex]Initial Condition,
→ [tex]S = 96t-16t^2+432[/tex]
(b)
Hits the ground when,
S = 0→ [tex]0=96t-16t^2+432[/tex]
→ [tex]t =9[/tex]
(c)
Maximum height when,
v = 0→ [tex]0 = 96-32 t[/tex]
→ [tex]t = 3[/tex]
Now,
→ [tex]S = 96\times 3-16\times 3^2+432[/tex]

If one could transport a simple pendulum of constant length from the Earth's surface to the Moon's, where acceleration due to gravity is one-sixth (1/6) that on the Earth, by what factor would be the pendulum frequency be changed
Answer:
The frequency will change by a factor of 0.4
Explanation:
T = 2(pi)*sqrt(L/g)
Since g(moon) = (1/6)g(earth), the period would change by sqrt[1/(1/6)] = sqrt(6) ~ 2.5 times longer on the moon. Since the period & frequency are inverses, the frequency would be 1/2.5 or 0.4 times shorter on the moon.
light of wavelength 550 nm is incident on a diffraction grating that is 1 cm wide and has 1000 slits. What is the dispersion of the m = 2 line?
Answer:
The dispersion is [tex]D = 2.01220 *10^{5} \ rad/m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The wavelength of the light is [tex]\lambda = 550 \ = 550 *10^{-9} \ n[/tex]
The width of the grating is[tex]k = 1\ cm = 0.01 \ m[/tex]
The number of slit is N = 1000 slits
The order of the maxima is m = 2
Generally the spacing between the slit is mathematically represented as
[tex]d = \frac{k}{N}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]d = \frac{ 0.01}{1000}[/tex]
[tex]d = 1.0 *10^{-5} \ m[/tex]
Generally the condition for constructive interference is
[tex]d\ sin(\theta ) = m * \lambda[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]1.0 *10^{-5} sin (\theta) = 2 * 550 *10^{-9}[/tex]
[tex]\theta = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 * 550 *10^{-9}}{ 1.0 *10^{-5}} ][/tex]
[tex]\theta = 6.315^o[/tex]
Generally the dispersion is mathematically represented as
[tex]D = \frac{ m }{d cos(\theta )}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]D = \frac{ 2 }{ 1.0 *10^{-5} cos(6.315 )}[/tex]
[tex]D = 2.01220 *10^{5} \ rad/m[/tex]
A 70 kg man floats in freshwater with 3.2% of his volume above water when his lungs are empty, and 4.85% of his volume above water when his lungs are full.
Required:
a. Calculate the volume of air he inhales - called his lung capacity - in liters.
b. Does this lung volume seem reasonable?
Answer:
Explanation:
A) Vair = 1.3 L
B) Volume is not reasonable
Explanation:
A)
Assume
m to be total mass of the man
mp be the mass of the man that pulled out of the water
m1 be the mass above the water with the empty lung
m2 be the mass above the water with full lung
wp be the weight that the buoyant force opposes as a result of the air.
Va be the volume of air inside man's lungs
Fb be the buoyant force due to the air in the lung
given;
m = 78.5 kg
m1 = 3.2% × 78.5 = 2.5 kg
m2 = 4.85% × 78.5 = 3.8kg
But, mp = m2- m1
mp = 3.8 - 2.5
mp = 1.3kg
So using
Archimedes principle, the relation for formula for buoyant force as;
Fb = (m_displaced water)g = (ρ_water × V_air × g)
Where ρ_water is density of water = 1000 kg/m³
Thus;
Fb = wp = 1.3× 9.81
Fb = 12.7N
But
Fb = (ρ_water × V_air × g)
So
Vair = Fb/(ρ_water × × g)
Vair = 12.7/(1000 × 9.81)
V_air = 1.3 × 10^(-3) m³
convert to litres
1 m³ = 1000 L
Thus;
V_air = 1.3× 10^(-3) × 1000
V_air = 1.3 L
But since the average lung capacity of an adult human being is about 6-7litres of air.
Thus, the calculated lung volume is not reasonable

Water pressurized to 3.5 x 105 Pa is flowing at 5.0 m/s in a horizontal pipe which contracts to 1/2 its former radius. a. What are the pressure and velocity of the water after the contraction
Answer:
Explanation:
Using the Continuity equation
v X A = v' xA'
so if A is 1/2of A' then A velocity must be 2 times the A'
after-contraction v = 2 x 5.0m/s = 10m/s
Using the Bernoulli equation
p₁ + ½ρv₁² + ρgh₁ = p₂ + ½ρv₂² + ρgh₂
, the "h" terms cancel
3.5 x 10^ 5Pa + ½ x 1000kg/m³x (5.0m/s)² = p₂ + ½ x 1000kg/m³ x (10m/s)²
p₂ = 342500pa
If you wish to observe features that are around the size of atoms, say 5.5 × 10^-10 m, with electromagnetic radiation, the radiation must have a wavelength of about the size of the atom itself.
Required:
a. What is its frequency?
b. What type of electromagnetic radiation might this be?
Answer:
a) 5.5×10^17 Hz
b) visible light
Explanation:
Since the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation must be about the size of the about itself, this implies that;
λ= 5.5 × 10^-10 m
Since;
c= λ f and c= 3×10^8 ms-1
f= c/λ
f= 3×10^8/5.5 × 10^-10
f= 5.5×10^17 Hz
The electromagnetic wave is visible light

Answer:
The speed of the proton is 4059.39 m/s
Explanation:
The centripetal force on the particle is given by;
[tex]F = \frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex]
The magnetic force on the particle is given by;
[tex]F = qvB[/tex]
The centripetal force on the particle must equal the magnetic force on the particle, for the particle to remain in the circular path.
[tex]\frac{mv^2}{r} = qvB\\\\r = \frac{mv^2}{qvB} \\\\r = \frac{mv}{qB}[/tex]
where;
r is the radius of the circular path moved by both electron and proton;
⇒For electron;
[tex]r = \frac{(9.1*10^{-31})(7.45*10^6)}{(1.602*10^{-19})(1.1*10^{-5})}\\\\r = 3.847 \ m[/tex]
⇒For proton
The speed of the proton is given by;
[tex]r = \frac{mv}{qB}\\\\mv = qBr\\\\v = \frac{qBr}{m} \\\\v = \frac{(1.602*10^{-19})(1.1*10^{-5})(3.847)}{1.67*10^{-27}} \\\\v = 4059.39 \ m/s[/tex]
Therefore, the speed of the proton is 4059.39 m/s
Two 1.0 nF capacitors are connected in series to a 1.5 V battery. Calculate the total energy stored by the capacitors.
Answer:
1.125×10⁻⁹ J
Explanation:
Applying,
E = 1/2CV²................... Equation 1
Where E = Energy stored in the capacitor, C = capacitance of the capacitor, V = Voltage of the battery.
Given; C = 1.0 nF, = 1.0×10⁻⁹ F, V = 1.5 V
Substitute into equation 1
E = 1/2(1.0×10⁻⁹×1.5²)
E = 1.125×10⁻⁹ J
Hence the energy stored by the capacitor is 1.125×10⁻⁹ J
Specific heat is a measurement of the amount of heat energy input required for one gram of a substance to increase its temperature by one degree Celsius. Solid lithium has a specific heat of 3.5 J/g·°C. This means that one gram of lithium requires 3.5 J of heat to increase 1°C. Plot the temperature of 1g of lithium after 3.5, 7, and 10.5 J of thermal energy are added.
Answer:
ΔT = 1ºC , 2ºCand 3ºC
Explanation:
In this exercise they indicate the specific heat of lithium
let's calculate the temperature increase as a function of the heat introduced
Q = m [tex]c_{e}[/tex] ΔT
ΔT = Q / m c_{e}
calculate
for Q = 3.5 J
ΔT = 3.5 / (1 3.5)
ΔT = 1ºC
For Q = 7.0 J
ΔT = 7 / (1 3.5)
ΔT = 2ºC
for Q = 10.5 J
ΔD = 10.5 / (1 3.5)
ΔT = 3ºC
we see that this is a straight line, see attached
A 2.0 m × 4.0 m flat carpet acquires a uniformly distributed charge of −10 μC after you and your friends walk across it several times. A 5.0 μg dust particle is suspended in midair just above the center of the carpet.
Required:
What is the charge on the dust particle?
Answer:
The charge on the dust particle is [tex]q_d = 6.94 *10^{-13} \ C[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length is [tex]l = 2.0 \ m[/tex]
The width is [tex]w = 4.0 \ m[/tex]
The charge is [tex]q = -10\mu C= -10*10^{-6} \ C[/tex]
The mass suspended in mid-air is [tex]m_a = 5.0 \mu g = 5.0 *10^{-6} \ g = 5.0 *10^{-9} \ kg[/tex]
Generally the electric field on the carpet is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = \frac{q}{ 2 * A * \epsilon _o}[/tex]
Where [tex]\epsilon _o[/tex] is the permittivity of free space with value [tex]\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} \ \ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]E = \frac{-10*10^{-6}}{ 2 * (2 * 4 ) * 8.85*10^{-12}}[/tex]
[tex]E = -70621.5 \ N/C[/tex]
Generally the electric force keeping the dust particle on the air equal to the force of gravity acting on the particles
[tex]F__{E}} = F__{G}}[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d * E = m * g[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d = \frac{m * g}{E}[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d = \frac{5.0 *10^{-9} * 9.8}{70621.5}[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d = 6.94 *10^{-13} \ C[/tex]

how does a system naturally change over time
Answer:
The movement of energy and matter in a system differs from one system to another. On the other hand, in open system both the matter and energy move into and out of the system. Therefore, matter and energy in a system naturally change over time will decrease in entropy.
Explanation:
Answer:
Decrease in entropy
Explanation:
Various systems which exist in nature possess energy and matter that move through these system continuously. The movement of energy and matter in a system differs from one system to another.
In a closed system for example, only energy flows in and out of the system while matter does not enter or leave the system.
On the other hand, in open system both the matter and energy move into and out of the system.

starting point. At the position of maximum displacement
Em₀ = Ke = ½ k (2x₀)²
final point. In the equilibrium position
[tex]Em_{f}[/tex] = K = ½ m v²
Em₀ = Em_{f}
½ k 4 x₀² = K
(½ K x₀²) = K₀
K = 4 K₀
K / K₀ = 4
B) the speed value
½ k 4 x₀² = ½ m v²
v = 4 (k / m) x₀
if we call
v₀ = k / m x₀
v = 4 v₀
v / v₀ = 4

An electric train operates on 800 V. What is its power consumption when the current flowing through the train's motor is 2,130 A?
Answer:
1704 kWExplanation:
To solve for the power consumed by the trains motor we have to employ the formula for power which is
Power= current * voltage
Given that
voltage V= 800 V
current I= 2130 A
Substituting in the formula for power we have
Power= 2130*800= 1704000 watt
Power = 1704 kW

In the lab, you shoot an electron towards the south. As it moves through a magnetic field, you observe the electron curving upward toward the roof of the lab. You deduce that the magnetic field must be pointing:_______.
a. to the west.
b. upward.
c. to the north.
d. to the east.
e. downward.
Answer:
a. to the west.
Explanation:
An electron in a magnetic field always experience a force that tends to change its direction of motion through the magnetic field. According to Lorentz left hand rule (which is the opposite of Lorentz right hand rule for a positive charge), the left hand is used to represent the motion of an electron in a magnetic field. Hold out the left hand with the fingers held out parallel to the palm, and the thumb held at right angle to the other fingers. If the thumb represents the motion of the electron though the field, and the other fingers represent the direction of the field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the particle.
In this case, if we point the thumb (which shows the direction we shot the electron) to the south (towards your body), with the palm (shows the direction of the force) facing up to the roof, then the fingers (the direction of the field) will point west.

A) R = 0.0293 ohms
B) ρ = 1.589 × 10^(-8)
C) n = 8.8 × 10^(28) electrons

Voltage; V = 22 mv = 0.022 V
Current; I = 750 mA = 0.75 A
Area; A = πr² = 0.001²π
Drift speed; v_d = 1.7 × 10^(-5) m/s
A) Formula for resistance is;R = V/I
R = 0.022/0.75
R = 0.0293 ohms
B) formula for resistivity is given by;ρ = RA/L
ρ = (0.0293 × 0.001²π)/5.8
ρ = 1.589 × 10^(-8)
C) Formula for current density is given by;J = n•e•v_d
Where;
J = I/A = 0.75/0.001²π A/m² = 238732.44 A/m²
e is charge on an electron = 1.6 × 10^(-19) C
v_d = 1.7 × 10^(-5) m/s
n is number of free electrons per unit volume
Thus;
238732.44 = n(1.6 × 10^(-19) × 1.7 × 10^(-5))
238732.44 = (2.72 × 10^(-24))n
n = 238732.44/(2.72 × 10^(-24))
n = 8.8 × 10^(28)

From the question;
V = 25.0V
d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m
Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;
E = 25.0 / 0.0017
E = 1.47 x 10⁴ V/m
(c) The capacitance of the capacitor is given by
C = Aε₀ / d
Where
C = capacitance
A = Area of the plates = 7.60cm² = 0.00076m²
ε₀ = permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹²F/m
d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m
C = 0.00076 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹² / 0.0017
C = 3.9 x 10⁻¹²F
(d) The charge, Q, on each plate can be found as follows;
Q = C V
Q = 3.9 x 10⁻¹² x 25.0
Q = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹C
Now since we have found other quantities, it is way easier to find the surface charge density.
(b) The surface charge density, σ, is the ratio of the charge Q on each plate to the area A of the plates. i.e
σ = Q / A
σ = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹ / 0.00076
σ = 1.28 x 10⁻⁷C/m²
A load of 1 kW takes a current of 5 A from a 230 V supply. Calculate the power factor.
Answer:
Power factor = 0.87 (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Load = 1 Kw = 1000 watt
Current (I) = 5 A
Supply (V) = 230 V
Find:
Power factor.
Computation:
Power factor = watts / (V)(I)
Power factor = 1,000 / (230)(5)
Power factor = 1,000 / (1,150)
Power factor = 0.8695
Power factor = 0.87 (Approx)
