On a windless day, two identical balls P and Q are dropped from the top and the middle of a tower at exactly the same time as sh

own .Which will be more: the time taken by P to reach the middle of the tower ,or the time taken by Q to reach the ground?

Answer: time is the same

Explanation: the distance(H) is the same in each case .

we drop the balls , no drag force using basic kimnematics

y =gt*t/2  , yo=0 , vo=0 , y=H  , so : t= sqrt(2H/g)

comment: if distance H starts to grow....we could begin to note a difference  because of gravity g is smaller as we go up

You stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator. what happens to the scale reading if the cable holding the elevator suddenly
Viefleur [7K]

A bathroom scales works due to gravity. Under normal conditions, a reading can be obtained when your body is pushing some force on the scale. However in this case, since you and the scale are both moving downwards, so your body is no longer pushing on the scale. Therefore the answer is:

<span>The reading will drop to 0 instantly</span>

Suppose your friend claims to have discovered a mysterious force in nature that acts on all particles in some region of space. H
kirill [66]

Answer:

             U = 1 / r²

Explanation:

In this exercise they do not ask for potential energy giving the expression of force, since these two quantities are related

             

         F = - dU / dr

this derivative is a gradient, that is, a directional derivative, so we must have

          dU = - F. dr

the esxresion for strength is

         F = B / r³

let's replace

          ∫ dU = - ∫ B / r³  dr

in this case the force and the displacement are parallel, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

let's evaluate the integrals

            U - Uo = -B (- / 2r² + 1 / 2r₀²)

To complete the calculation we must fix the energy at a point, in general the most common choice is to make the potential energy zero (Uo = 0) for when the distance is infinite (r = ∞)

             U = B / 2r²

we substitute the value of B = 2

             U = 1 / r²

A small light cylinder and a large heavy cylinder are released at the same time and roll down a ramp without slipping. Which one
forsale [732]

Answer:

C. Both reach the bottom at the same time.

Explanation:

For a rolling object down an inclined plane , the acceleration is given below

a = g sinθ / (1 + k² / r² )

θ is angle of inclination , k is radius of gyration , r is radius of the cylinder

For cylindrical object

k² / r² = 1/2

acceleration =  g sinθ  /( 1 + 1/2 )

= 2 g sinθ / 3  

Since it does not depend upon either mass or radius , acceleration of both the cylinder will be equal . Hence they will reach the bottom simultaneously.

If isomerization requires breaking the pi bond, what minimum energy is required for isomerization in j/mol?
aliina [53]
<span>The minimum energy required for isomerization is 267 000 J/mol 
</span>

The isomerization of cis-but-2-ene to trans-but-2-ene requires breaking of the π bond.

The bond energy of a C-C σ bond is 347 kJ/mol.

The bond energy of a C=C double bond (σ + π) is 614 kJ/mol.

So the bond energy of a π bond is (614 – 347) kJ/mol = 267 kJ/mol =
267 000 J/mol.
