For the answer to the questions above, I'll give the formulas so that you can answer the equation easily.

These are the equations you need to solve this: 

<span>Lift Load = Buoyancy Force = (Weight of air inside balloon if it were filled with outside dry air) - (Weight of actual gas inside balloon) </span>

<span>Weight of gas inside balloon = (density of gas) (acceleration of gravity at earth's surface) (balloon volume) </span>

<span>Density of gas = (absolute pressure)(Molecular Weight of Gas) / [(Specific Gas Constant)(absolute temperature)] </span>

<span>Balloon Volume = (4/3) π (balloon radius)^3 
</span>
All you have to do is substitute them with the values.

jek_recluse [69]
We know that the measure of an incident ray is:  α 1 = 40°.
The index of refraction:
- for the air : n 1 = 1.00,
- for the water: n 2 = 1.33
Snell`s Law of Refraction :
n 1 · sin α 1 = n 2 · sin α 2
sin α 2 = n 1 · sin α 1 / n 2 =
= 1.00 · sin 40° / 1.33 = 0.64278 / 1.33 = 0.4833
α 2 = sin ^(-1) 0.4833
α 2 = 28.9 °
Answer: The angle relative to the water`s surface of the rays when beneath the surface is 28.9°.

 A bartender slides a beer mug at 1.50 m/s toward a customer at the end of a frictionless bar that is 1.20 m tall. The customer
Andrew [12]

Answer:

a) the mug hits the floor 0.7425m away from the end of the bar. b) |V|=5.08m/s θ= -72.82°

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first start by doing a drawing of the situation. (see attached picture).

a)

From the drawing we can see that we are dealing with a two dimensions movement problem. So in order to find out how far away from the bar the mug will fall, we need to start by finding how long it will take the mug to be in the air, so we analyze the vertical movement of the mug.

In order to find the time we need to use the following formula, which contains the data we know:

y_{f}=y_{0}+v_{y0}t+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

we know that y_{f}=0 and that v_{y0}=0 as well, so the formula is simplified to:

0=y_{0}+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

we can now solve this for t, so we get:

-y_{0}=\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

-2y_{0}=at^{2}

\frac{-2y_{0}}{a}=t^{2}

t=\sqrt{\frac{-2y_{0}}{a}}

we know that y_{0}=1.20m and that a=g=-9.8m/s^{2}

the acceleration of gravity is negative because the mug is moving downwards. So we substitute them into the given formula:

t=\sqrt{\frac{-2(1.20m)}{(-9.8m/s^{2})}}

which yields:

t=0.495s

we can now use this to find the horizontal distance the mug travels. We know that:

V_{x}=\frac{x}{t}

so we can solve this for x, so we get:

x=V_{x}t

and we can now substitute the values we know:

x=(1.5m/s)(0.495s)

which yields:

x=0.7425m

b) Now that we know the time it takes the mug to hit the floor, we can use it to find the final velocity in the y-direction by using the following formula:

a=\frac{v_{f}-v_{0}}{t}

we know the initial velocity in the vertical direction is zero, so we can simplify the formula:

a=\frac{v_{f}}{t}

so we can solve this for the final velocity:

V_{yf}=at

in this case the acceleration is the same as the acceleration of gravity (which is negative) so we can substitute that and the time we found on the previous part to get:

V_{yf}=(-9.8m/s^{2})(0.495s)

which yields:

V_{yf}=-4.851m/s

so now we know the components of the final velocity, which are:

V_{xf}=1.5m/s and V_{yf]=-4.851m/s

so now we can find the speed by determining the magnitude of the vector, like this:

|V|=\sqrt{V_{x}^{2}+V_{y}^{2}}

so we get:

|V|=\sqrt{(1.5m/s)^{2}+(-4.851m/s)^{2}

which yields:

|V|=5.08m/s

now, to find the direction of the impact, we can use the following equation:

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{V_{y}}{V_{x}})

so we get:

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{-4.851m/s}{(1.5m/s)})

which yields:

\theta = -72.82^{o}

Upon impact, bicycle helmets compress, thus lowering the potentially dangerous acceleration experienced by the head. A new kind
Dimas [21]

Answer:

acceleration = -15.3g

Explanation:

given data

speed = 6.00 m/s.

thickness = 12

moves the entire = 12.0 cm

solution

we will use here equation that is

v² - u²  = 2 × a × s    ........................1

here v = 0 is the final velocity and u = 6.0 m/s is initial velocity and s= 0.12 m is the distance covered and a is the acceleration

so we put here value and get acceleration

a = \frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}

a = \frac{0^2-6^2}{2\times 0.12}

a = -150 m/s² ( negative sign means it is a deceleration )

and

acceleration in units of g  

a = \frac{-150}{9.8}

a = -15.3 g
