Answer:

h = 104.13 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal velocity of the car, v = 13 m/s

It hits the ground 60 m from the shoreline

We need to find the height of the cliff. Let t be the time of fall. We can find it as follows :

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{60\ m}{13\ m/s}\\\\t=4.61\ s$

So, the time of fall is 4.61 seconds.

Let h is the height of the cilff. Using second equation of motion to find it as follows :

$h=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times 4.61^2\\\\=104.13\ m$

So, the height of the cliff is 104.13 m.

A cat is sleeping on the floor in the middle of a 3.0-m-wide room when a barking dog enters with a speed of 1.50 m/s. as the dog

kondor19780726 [428]

Good morning.

Lets make the movement function for the dog and cat.

The cat has a start position of1.5 m(the middle of the room), with an initial speed of 0 and acceleration of 0.85 m/s².

The dog has a start position of 0, an initial speed of 1.5 m/s and acceleration of -0.1 m/s².

<u>Cat:</u>

$\mathsf{X = X_0+V_0t + \dfrac{at^2}{2}}\\ \\ \mathsf{X = 1.5 + \dfrac{0.85t^2}{2}}\\ \\ \\ \mathsf{X_c = 1.5 + 0.425t^2}$

<u>Dog:</u>

$\mathsf{X_d= 1.5t - 0.05t^2}$

Let's see if the dog reach the cat. Physically, it means $\mathsf{X_d = X_c}$

$\mathsf{1.5t - 0.05t^2 = 1.5 + 0.425t^2}\\ \\ \mathsf{0.425t^2 + 0.05t^2 - 1.5t + 1.5 = 0}\\ \\ \mathsf{0.475t^2 - 1.5t + 1.5=0}$

Now we solve for <em>t</em>:

$\mathsf{\Delta = (-1.5)^2 - 4\cdot0.475\cdot1.5}\\ \\ \mathsf{\Delta = 2.25-2.85=-0.6 \ \textless \ 0}$

We have a negative Delta. Therefore, there is no instant t when the dog reaches the cat.

In Part 6.2.2, you will determine the wavelength of the laser by shining the laser beam on a "diffraction grating", a set of reg

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

λ = 2042 nm

Explanation:

given data

screen distance d = 11 m

spot s = 4.5 cm = 4.5 × $10^{-2}$ m

separation L = 0.5 mm = 0.5 × $10^{-3}$ m

to find out

what is λ

solution

we will find first angle between first max and central bright

that is tan θ = s/d

tan θ = 4.5 × $10^{-2}$ / 11

θ = 0.234

and we know diffraction grating for max

L sinθ = mλ

here we know m = 1 so put all value and find λ

L sinθ = mλ

0.5 × $10^{-3}$ sin(0.234) = 1 λ

λ = 2042.02 × $10^{-9}$ m

λ = 2042 nm

A 6.0-cm-diameter, 11-cm-long cylinder contains 100 mg of oxygen (O2) at a pressure less than 1 atm. The cap on one end of the c

g100num [7]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Mass of oxygen present = 100 mg = $100 \times 10^{-3}$ g

So, moles of oxygen present are calculated as follows.

n = $\frac{100 \times 10^{-3}}{32}$

= $3.125 \times 10^{-3}$ moles

Diameter of cylinder = 6 cm = $6 \times 10^{-2}$ m

= 0.06 m

Now, we will calculate the cross sectional area (A) as follows.

A = $\pi \times \frac{(0.06)^{2}}{4}$

= $2.82 \times 10^{-3} m^{2}$

Length of tube = 11 cm = 0.11 m

Hence, volume (V) = $2.82 \times 10^{-3} \times 0.11$

= $3.11 \times 10^{-4} m^{3}$

Now, we assume that the inside pressure is P .

And, $P_{atm}$ = 100 kPa = 100000 Pa,

Pressure difference = 100000 - P

Hence, force required to open is as follows.

Force = Pressure difference × A

= $(100000 - P) \times 2.82 \times 10^{-3}$

We are given that force is 173 N.

Thus,

$(100000 - P) \times 2.82 \times 10^{-3}$ = 173

Solving we get,

P = $3.8650 \times 10^{4} Pa$

= 38.65 kPa

According to the ideal gas equation, PV = nRT

So, we will put the values into the above formula as follows.

PV = nRT

$38.65 \times 3.11 \times 10^{-4} = 3.125 \times 10^{-3} \times 8.314 \times T$

T = 462.66 K

Thus, we can conclude that temperature of the gas is 462.66 K.

Olin [163]

Answer:

6.05 cm

Explanation:

The given equation is

2 aₓ(x-x₀)=( Vₓ²-V₀ₓ²)

The initial head velocity V₀ₓ =11 m/s

The final head velocity Vₓ is 0

The accelerationis given by =1000 m/s²

the stopping distance = x-x₀=?

So we can wind the stopping distance by following formula

2 (-1000)(x-x₀)=[ $0^{2} -11^{2}$ ]

x-x₀=6.05* $10^{-2}$ m

=6.05 cm
