A basketball is shot by a player at a height of 2.0m. The initial angle was 53° above the horizontal. At the highest point, the ball was travelling 6 m/s. If he scored (the ball went through the rim that is 3.00m above the ground), what was the player's horizontal distance from the basket?

Answers

At the ball's highest point, it has no vertical velocity, so the 6 m/s is purely horizontal. A projectile's horizontal velocity does not change, which means the ball was initially thrown with speed v such that

v cos(53°) = 6 m/s   ==>   v = (6 m/s) sec(53°) ≈ 9.97 m/s

The player shoots the ball from a height of 2.0 m, so that the ball's horizontal and vertical positions, respectively x and y, at time t are

x = (9.97 m/s) cos(53°) t = (6 m/s) t

y = 2.0 m + (9.97 m/s) sin(53°) t - 1/2 gt ²

Find the times t for which the ball reaches a height of 3.00 m:

3.00 m = 2.0 m + (9.97 m/s) sin(53°) t - 1/2 gt ²

==>   t ≈ 0.137 s   or   t ≈ 1.49 s

The second time is the one we care about, because it's the one for which the ball would be falling into the basket.

Now find the distance x traveled by the ball after this time:

x = (6 m/s) (1.49 s) ≈ 8.93 m

Compared with dim light, what do light waves that look bright tend to have the subject just says science but the picker doesn't have that

Answers

Answer:

The brightness of a light depends on the amplitude of the light wave, which is the extent the waves moves from their equilibrium position. The brightness is also related to the amount of light that is emitted or reflected by an object

Therefore, compared to dim light, light that look bright have a higher amplitude and emit or reflect more light energy (photons)

49. A block is pushed across a horizontal surface with a
coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.15 by applying a
150 N horizontal force.
(a) The block accelerates at the rate of 2.53 m/s2
Find the mass of the block.

(b) The block slides across a new surface while
experiencing the same applied force as before.
The block now moves with a constant speed.
What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between
the block and the new surface?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 37.5 kg

(b) 4

Explanation:

Force, F = 150 N

kinetic friction coefficient = 0.15

(a) acceleration, a = 2.53 m/s^2

According to the newton's second law

Net force = mass x acceleration

F - friction force = m a

150 - 0.15 x m g = m a

150 = m (2.53 + 0.15 x 9.8)

m = 37.5 kg

(b) As the block moves with the constant speed so the applied force becomes the friction force.

[tex]F = \mu m g \\\\150 = \mu\times 37.5\\\\\mu = 4[/tex]

2 What are(i) free fall , (ii) acceleration due to gravity, (iii) escape velocity , (iv) centripetal force?​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Free fall implies an object falling under the gravitational influence only. During the flight, no other force acts on it except the gravitational pull.

2. Acceleration due to gravity is the earth's natural force of pull on all objects on its surface, close to its surface, or in the region where the force can be felt. This force pulls object to the surface of the earth.

3. Escape velocity is the required minimum velocity for an object to leave the gravitational influence of the earth. It has a constant value which can be determined by;

Escape velocity = [tex]\sqrt{2gR}[/tex]

where g is the gravitation force of the earth and R is the radius of the earth.

4. Centripetal force is the force of pull that is required to keep a rotation object in its curved path.

Assume that the velocity of the soda bottle falling from a height of 0.8 m will be 4 m/s. Record this velocity for each mass in Table A, and use it in calculating the predicted kinetic energy of the soda bottle for the masses of 0.125 kg, 0.250 kg, 0.375 kg, and 0.500 kg using the equation: KE=1/2 mv^2 When solving for kinetic energy (KE), m is mass, and v is the speed (or velocity).

Answers

[tex]\large{\underbrace{\underline{\fcolorbox{White}{pink}{\bf{ANSWER♥︎}}}}}[/tex]kinetic energy is given as

KE = (0.5) m v²

given that : v = speed of the bottle in each case = 4 m/s when m = 0.125 kg

KE = (0.5) m v² = (0.5) (0.125) (4)² = 1 J

when m = 0.250 kg KE = (0.5) m v² = (0.5) (0.250) (4)² = 2 J

when m = 0.375 kg KE = (0.5) m v² = (0.5) (0.375) (4)² = 3 J

The summer camps had a field trip from the campus to Fragrance Hill. They traveled at an average speed of 65 km/h in the first 2 hours. After that, traveled at another average speed of 78 km/h. If the distance between the campus and Fragrance Hill is 364 km, what was the total time for the field trip?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

They traveled this distance in 2 parts, essentially. Part 1 had an average speed for a certain number of hours, part 2 had an average speed for a certain number of hours, and those 2 parts taken together took them a distance of 364 km. In equation form, that looks like this:

km/hr part 1 + km/hr part 2 = 364 km

Now we need to find each part on the left side of that equation. Part 1 first:

We traveled 65 km/hr for 2 hours, so that took us

[tex]65\frac{km}{hr}*2hr[/tex] and canceling out the hour label, we have that in part 1 we got

65(2) = 130 km. Good. Now onto the second part, where our unknown is.

We traveled 78 km/hr the second part for x hours, so that took us

[tex]78\frac{km}{hr}*xhr[/tex] and canceling out the hour label, we have that in part 2 we got

78x km. Now we can fill in the main equation (the one in bold print)

130 km + 78x km = 364 km and subtracting 130 km from both sides:

78x km = 234 km and dividing by 78 km:

x = 3 hours. Part 2 took 3 hours. Part 1 took 2 hours, so the whole trip took 5 hours.

The gravitational force acting on various masses is measured on different planets. Measured values for the forces acting on the corresponding masses are shown in the data table. Analyze the data and develop a method for comparing the gravitational field strengths on the different planets. Use your method to compare the gravitational field strengths, and report your conclusions.

Answers

we Know that gravitational field strength(g) at a point on a planet is equal to gravitational force exerted per unit mass placed at that point.
It Means,
g=F/m
Here,
g=gravitational field strength
F=Gravitational force
m=Mass
Case A
planet force =10 and mass= .5
g1=F/m
g1=10/.5
=100/5
g1=20m/s
case B
F=30 and m=2
therefore g2=30/2
g2=15m/s^2
case C
F=45 and m=3
g3=45/3
=15m/s^2
case D
g4=60/6
g4=10m/s^2
from above results it is clear that the gravitational field strength of planet D is minimum which is 10m/s^2 and gravitational field strength of planet A is maximum which is 20m/s^2

Answer:

a) i) x = 0.25 m, ii) x = 0.10 m, iii)  x = 0.050 m

b) i)  x = 0.40 m

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we use the rotational equilibrium equation, where we assume that the anticlockwise rotations are positive.

1) L = 2W  

we set our reference system in the center of the bar where the fulcrum is

              ∑τ = 0

              W 0.50 - L x = 0

              x = 0.50 W / L

we substitute the value

              x = 0.50 W / 2W

              x = 0.25 m

ii) L = 5W

we calculate

              x = 0.50 W / 5W

              x = 0.10 m

iii) L = 10 W

               x = 0.50 W / 10W

              x = 0.050 m

b) a new weight is placed at x₂ = 30 cm on the left side

              W 0.50 + W 0.30 - L x = 0

              x = (0.50 + 0.30) W / L

              x = 0.80 W / L

we calculate

i)  L = 2W

                x = 0.80 w / 2w

                x = 0.40 m

Answer: If we leave liquid butane in a bowl on a table in a room where the temperature is [tex]24^{o}C[/tex], butane will evaporate.

Explanation:

A temperature at which the the liquid and gaseous phase of a substance of a substance are present in equilibrium with each other is called boiling point.

For example, the boiling point of butane is -1.5 degree Celsius.

This means that at a temperature above -1.5 degree Celsius, butane will exist is gaseous state. That is, at a temperature of 24 degree Celsius butane will evaporate.

Thus, we can conclude that if we leave liquid butane in a bowl on a table in a room where the temperature is [tex]24^{o}C[/tex], butane will evaporate.

If the electric force between two charges is 4.2 × 10-2 N, what would the new force be if the distance between the charges is doubled and the charge on one of the charges is tripled?

Answers

Answer:

New force = 0.063 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The electric force between two charges is[tex]4.2\times 10^{-2}\ N[/tex]

The formula for the electric force is:

[tex]F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

If the distance between the charges is doubled, r' = 2r and one of the charges is tripled, q₁' = 2q₁, q₂' = 3q₂

Put all the values,

[tex]F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r'^2}\\\\\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}}{\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r'^2}}\\\\\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{\dfrac{q_1\times q_2}{r^2}}{\dfrac{2q_1\times 3q_2}{(2r)^2}}\\\\\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{4}{6}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\F'=\dfrac{3\times 4.2\times 10^{-2}}{2}\\\\F'=0.063\ N[/tex]

So, the new force is 0.063 N.

Answer:

The force becomes 0.0315 N.

Explanation:

Force, F = 4.2 x 10^-2 N

When the distance is doubled, a charge is tripled, Let the force is F'.

The force between the two charges is

[tex]F = \frac{K qq'}{r^2}\\[/tex]

when, q' = 3 q' and r is 2 r so

[tex]F' = \frac{K 3qq'}{4r^2} = \frac{3 F}{4} = \frac {3\times 4.2\times 10^{-2}}{4}=0.0315 N[/tex]
