In a jump spike, a volleyball player slams the ball from overhead and toward the opposite floor. controlling the angle of the sp

ike is difficult. suppose a ball is spiked from a height of 2.10 m with an initial speed of 17.0 m/s at a downward angle of 15.0°. how much farther on the opposite floor would it have landed if the downward angle were, instead, 7.0°?

V ( initial ) = 20 m/s
h = 2.30 m
h = v y * t + g t ² / 2
d = v x * t
1 ) At α = 18°:
v y = 20 * sin 18° = 6.18 m/s
v x = 20 * cos 18° = 19.02 m/ s
2.30 = 6.18 t + 4.9 t²
4.9 t² + 6.18 t - 2.30 = 0
After solving the quadratic equation ( a = 4.9, b = 6.18, c = - 2.3 ):
t 1/2 = (- 6.18 +/- √( 6.18² - 4 * 4.9 * (-2.3)) ) / ( 2 * 4.9 )  
t = 0.3 s
d 1 = 19.02 m/s * 0.3 s = 5.706 m
2 ) At  α = 8°:
v y = 20* sin 8° = 2.78 m/s
v x = 20* cos 8° = 19.81 m/s
2.3 = 2.78 t + 4.9 t² 
4.9 t² + 2.78 t - 2.3 = 0
t = 0.46 s
d 2 = 19.81 * 0.46 = 9.113 m
The distance is:
d 2 - d 1 = 9.113 m - 5.706 m = 3.407 m

GOOD LUCK AND HOPE IT HELPS U

A beam of monochromatic light (f =5.09 ×1014 Hz) has a wavelength of 589 nanometers in air. What is the wavelength of this light
frosja888 [35]
Lucite has a refractive index of n=1.50. This means that the speed of the light in lucite is decreased according to:
v=\frac{c}{n}
where c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light in air. Putting the number in the formula, we find that the speed of light in lucite is
v=\frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.50}=2\cdot 10^8 m/s
The frequency of the light is f=5.09 \cdot 10^{14}Hz, so now we can calculate the wavelength in lucite by using the formula:
\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{2\cdot 10^8 m/s}{5.09 \cdot 10^{14} Hz}=3.93 \cdot 10^{-7} m=393 nm
<span>Therefore, the correct answer is (2) 393 nm.</span>

A block of mass m1 = 3.5 kg moves with velocity v1 = 6.3 m/s on a frictionless surface. it collides with block of mass m2 = 1.7
maxonik [38]
First, let's find the speed v_i of the two blocks m1 and m2 sticked together after the collision.
We can use the conservation of momentum to solve this part. Initially, block 2 is stationary, so only block 1 has momentum different from zero, and it is:
p_i = m_1 v_1
After the collision, the two blocks stick together and so now they have mass m_1 +m_2 and they are moving with speed v_i:
p_f = (m_1 + m_2)v_i
For conservation of momentum
p_i=p_f
So we can write
m_1 v_1 = (m_1 +m_2)v_i
From which we find
v_i =  \frac{m_1 v_1}{m_1+m_2}= \frac{(3.5 kg)(6.3 m/s)}{3.5 kg+1.7 kg}=4.2 m/s

The two blocks enter the rough path with this velocity, then they are decelerated because of the frictional force \mu (m_1+m_2)g. The work done by the frictional force to stop the two blocks is
\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
where d is the distance covered by the two blocks before stopping.
The initial kinetic energy of the two blocks together, just before entering the rough path, is
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2
When the two blocks stop, all this kinetic energy is lost, because their velocity becomes zero; for the work-energy theorem, the loss in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the frictional force:
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2 =\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
From which we can find the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction:
\mu =  \frac{v_i^2}{2gd}= \frac{(4.2 m/s)^2}{2(9.81 m/s^2)(1.85 m)}=0.49

A book rests on the shelf of a bookcase. The reaction force to the force of gravity acting on the book is 1. The force of the sh
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

1. The force of the shelf holding the book up.

Explanation:

The free body diagram of the book is as follows:

1 - The weight of the book towards downwards

2 - The normal force that the shelf exerts on the book towards upwards.

Since the book is at rest, these two forces are equal to each other and according to Newton's Third Law the reaction force to the force of gravity is equal but opposite to the weight of the book. This reaction force is the one that holds the book up on the shelf.
