Answer:

Explanation:

A 40kg child throw stone of 0.5kg

At a direction of 5m/s

Recoil can be calculated using recoil of a gun formula

m_1•v_1 + m_2•v_2

m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2

The negative sign show that the momentum of the boy is directed oppositely to that of the stone

m_1 Is mass of boy

v_1 is the recoil velocity of the boy

m_2 is mass of stone

v_2 is the velocity of stone

Then,

m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2

40•v_1 = -0.5 × 5

40•v_1 = -2.5

v_1 = -2.5 / 40

v_1 = -0.0625 m/s

The recoil velocity of the boy is 0.0625 m/s

Which actions most likely cause the domains in a ferromagnetic material to align?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

A ferromagnetic material is a temporary magnet. The domains in a ferromagnetic material are randomly arranged. Under certain actions, the domains align in a particular direction and the material acts as a magnet. The actions that can cause alignment of domains in a ferromagnetic material are:

  • rubbing the material against a magnet would cause the alignment of domains in the same direction as of the magnet.
  • passing electricity around the material would generate magnetic field which would cause domains to align along the direction of the field.
  • placing the material near a strong magnet would cause the alignment of domains in the direction of the field generated by the strong magnet.

Other actions like heating the material,  placing the material in a magnetic field of opposite polarity and hitting the material would lead to demagnetization of the magnetic material.

To determine the height of a flagpole, Abby throws a ball straight up and times it. She sees that the ball goes by the top of th
Kryger [21]

Answer:

H = 10.05 m

Explanation:

If the stone will reach the top position of flag pole at t = 0.5 s and t = 4.1 s

so here the total time of the motion above the top point of pole is given as

\Delta t = 4.1 - 0.5 = 3.6 s

now we have

\Delta t = \frac{2v}{g}

3.6 = \frac{2v}{9.8}

v = 17.64 m/s

so this is the speed at the top of flag pole

now we have

v_f - v_i = at

17.64 - v_i = (-9.8)(0.5)

v_i = 22.5 m/s

now the height of flag pole is given as

H = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2}t

H = \frac{22.5 + 17.64}{2} (0.5)

H = 10.05 m

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

w = √ 1 / CL

This does not violate energy conservation because the voltage of the power source is equal to the voltage drop in the resistence

Explanation:

This problem refers to electrical circuits, the circuits where this phenomenon occurs are series RLC circuits, where the resistor, the capacitor and the inductance are placed in series.

In these circuits the impedance is

             X = √ (R² +  (X_{C} -X_{L})² )

where Xc and XL is the capacitive and inductive impedance, respectively

            X_{C} = 1 / wC

           X_{L} = wL

From this expression we can see that for the resonance frequency

           X_{C} = X_{L}

the impedance of the circuit is minimal, therefore the current and voltage are maximum and an increase in signal intensity is observed.

This does not violate energy conservation because the voltage of the power source is equal to the voltage drop in the resistence

               V = IR

Since the contribution of the two other components is canceled, this occurs for

                X_{C} = X_{L}

                1 / wC = w L

                w = √ 1 / CL
