Answer:

$x=360.4-4.905t^2$

8.57181 s

84.0894561 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

Let distance from ground be x

From equation of motion we have

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

Here, distance covered while the stone is falling will be $360.4-x$

$360.4-x=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 360.4-x=\frac{1}{2}9.81t^2\\\Rightarrow 360.4-x=4.905t^2\\\Rightarrow x=360.4-4.905t^2$

The equation is $x=360.4-4.905t^2$

At the ground x = 0

$0=360.4-4.905t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\dfrac{-360.4}{-4.905}}\\\Rightarrow t=8.57181\ s$

The time taken by the stone to fall to the ground is 8.57181 s

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+9.81\times 8.57181\\\Rightarrow v=84.0894561\ m/s$

The velocity of the stone when it reaches the ground is 84.0894561 m/s

An application of this principle is that a line mounted on transparent slide casts the same diffraction pattern as a dark film w

kifflom [539]

Explanation:

It is given that,

The distance between the first spot and the central minimum is, s = 0.007 cm

Length, l = 12 m

Wavelength, $\lambda=6\times 10^{-7}\ m$

We need to find the width of the hair. Using the condition of diffraction pattern as :

$s=\dfrac{m\lambda l}{d}$ , d is the width of the hair

$d=\dfrac{m\lambda l}{s}$

$d=\dfrac{1\times 6\times 10^{-7}\times 12}{0.007}$

d = 0.00102

or

$d=1.02\times 10^{-3}\ m$

So, the width of the hair is $1.02\times 10^{-3}\ m$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Our two intrepid relacar drivers are named Pam and Ned. We use these names to make it easy to remember: measurements made by Pam

zhannawk [14.2K]

The velocity of Ned as measured by Pam is the interpretation of v.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to question, we know that this is an issue depending on the logical and translation of the factors. From the measured information taken what is gathered by the two people is communicated and we have given as:

The Ned reference framework : (x, t)

The Pam reference framework : $\left(x^{\prime}, t^{\prime}\right)$

From the reference framework, we realize that ν is the speed of Pam (the other reference framework) as estimation by Ned.

At that point, $v^{\prime}$ is the speed of Ned (from the other arrangement of the reference) as estimation by Pam.

Derive an algebraic equation for the vertical force that the bench exerts on the book at the lowest point of the circular path i

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The algebraic equation is:

$F_{v} =\frac{m_{b}v_{b}^{2} }{R} -m_{b} g$

Explanation:

Given information:

mb = book's mass

vb = tangential speed

R = radius of the path

Question: Derive an algebraic equation for the vertical force, Fv = ?

To derive the equation, we need to draw a force diagram for this case, please, see the attached diagram. As you can see, there are three types of forces acting on the system. Two up and one of the weight acting down. Therefore, the algebraic equation is as follows:

$F_{v} =\frac{m_{b}v_{b}^{2} }{R} -m_{b} g$

The variables were defined above and g is the gravity.

Determine the sign (+ or −) of the torque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps, the sign of the weight of the forearm,

Alex Ar [27]

Ans:
1. τbiceps = +(Positive)
2. τforearm = -(Negative)
3. τball = -(Negative)

Explanation:

The figure is attached down below.

1. T<span>orque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
</span>Where r is the vector from elbow to the biceps.
<span>
We can see in the figure that F(biceps) is in upward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the counterclockwise direction. The torque in counterclockwise direction is positive(+). Therefore, the sign would be +.

2. </span>Torque about the the weight of the forearm, τforearm:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the forearm.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(forearm) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.

3. Torque about the the weight of the ball, τball:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the ball.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(ball) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.
