A reflecting telescope is built with a 20-cm-diameter mirror having a 1.00 m focal length. it is used with a 10× eyepiece.

A 145-g baseball is thrown so that it acquires a speed of 25 m/s. What was the net work done on the ball to make it reach this s

inysia [295]

When the ball has left your hand and is flying on its own, its kinetic energy is

KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed²)

KE = (1/2) (0.145 kg) (25 m/s)²

KE = (0.0725 kg) (625 m²/s²)

KE = 45.3 Joules

If the baseball doesn't have rocket engines on it, or a hamster inside running on a treadmill that turns a propeller on the outside, then there's only one other place where that kinetic energy could come from: It MUST have come from the hand that threw the ball. The hand would have needed to do 45.3 J of work on the ball before releasing it.

In a semiclassical model of the hydrogen atom, the electron orbits the proton at a distance of 0.053 nm. Part A What is the elec

Bezzdna [24]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

$r=0.053 nm=0.053\times 10^{-9} m$

$1 nm=10^{-9} m$

Charge on proton,q= $1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

a.We have to find the electric potential of the proton at the position of the electron.

We know that the electric potential

$V=\frac{kq}{r}$

Where $k=9\times 10^9$

$V=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}$

$V=27.17 V$

B.Potential energy of electron,U= $\frac{kq_e q_p}{r}$

Where

$q_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19} c=$ Charge on electron

$q_p=q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C$ =Charge on proton

Using the formula

$U=\frac{9\times 10^9\times (-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}$

$U=-4.35\times 10^{-18} J$

A blue puck has a velocity of 0i – 3j m/s and a mass of 4 kg. A gold puck has a velocity of 12i – 5j m/s and a mass of 6 kg. Wha

Mnenie [13.5K]

By definition, the kinetic energy is given by:
K = (1/2) * m * v ^ 2
where
m = mass
v = speed
We must then find the speed of both objects:
blue puck
v = root ((0) ^ 2 + (- 3) ^ 2) = 3
gold puck
v = root ((12) ^ 2 + (- 5) ^ 2) = 13
Then, the kinetic energy of the system will be:
K = (1/2) * m1 * v1 ^ 2 + (1/2) * m2 * v2 ^ 2
K = (1/2) * (4) * (3 ^ 2) + (1/2) * (6) * (13 ^ 2)
K = 525 J
answer
The kinetic energy of the system is 525 J

A sample of a gas has a volume of 639 cm3 when the pressure is 75.9 kPa. What is the volume of the gas when the pressure is incr

const2013 [10]

Answer:

$388 cm^3$

Explanation:

For this problem, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas at constant temperature, the product between pressure and volume remains constant:

$pV=const.$
