Rock X is released from rest at the top of a cliff that is on Earth. A short time later, Rock Y is released from rest from the s

ame location as Rock X. Both rocks fall for several seconds before landing on the ground directly below the cliff. Frictional forces are considered to be negligible. After Rock Y is released from rest several seconds after Rock X is released from rest, what happens to the separation distance S between the rocks as they fall but before they reach the ground, and why? Take the positive direction to be downward.

Answer:

Separation increases at all times that rock X falls because it falls with a greater speed

Explanation:

For both rocks, let initial velocity ∪=0

To find the displacement at any given time interval of Δt then

S= ∪Δt +0.5gΔt²

Since rock X is first released followed by Y, then X has a greater speed than Y therefore the distance covered by X is longer. This is because despite 0.5gΔt² being same for both rocks at any time Δt but rock X having already attained some velocity, its ∪Δt  is more hence the separation S increases. Conclusively, S increases at all times that rock X falls since rock X falls with a greater velocity than rock Y

A metal sphere of radius 10 cm carries a charge of +2.0 μC uniformly distributed over its surface. What is the magnitude of the
frozen [14]

Answer:

8.0\cdot 10^5 N/C

Explanation:

Outside the sphere's surface, the electric field has the same expression of that produced by a single point charge located at the centre of the sphere.

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field ar r = 5.0 cm from the sphere is:

E=k\frac{q}{(R+r)^2}

where

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 N m^2C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q=2.0 \mu C=2.0 \cdot 10^{-6}C is the charge on the sphere

R=10 cm = 0.10 m is the radius of the sphere

r=5.0 cm = 0.05 m is the distance from the surface of the sphere

Substituting, we find

E=(8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2})\frac{2.0\cdot 10^{-6} C}{(0.10 m+0.05 m)^2}=8.0\cdot 10^5 N/C

Bradley gets an x-ray at a radiology clinic that employs its own technologists and radiologists. Would the coder at the clinic r
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

If Bradley examination was done and interpreted in the same facility, the radiologist code is used example- procedure code 72100- Radiologic examination, spine, lumbosacral, 2 or 3 views is reported.

if the X-ray was taken by Dr X but Dr X does not read or interpret the image but forward it to the radiologist for initial report, then a 26- modifier is used. E.g A reports by the technologist would be, procedure code 72050-Radiologic examination, spine, cervical, 2 or 3

views or 72050- TC in certain situations and the consulting radiologist would report 72050-26.

if Bradley’s x-ray were sent to an independent radiologist for interpretation, then the procedure code 76140 is used in reporting.

An engineer wants to design an oval racetrack such that 3.20 × 10 3 lb racecars can round the exactly 1000 ft radius turns at 10
Reptile [31]

Answer:

The banking angle necessary for the race cars is 34.84°

Explanation:

For normal reaction the expression is:

\\Nsin\theta = \frac{mv^{2} }{R}  =Fc\\tan\theta =\frac{v^{2} }{Rg}  \\\theta =tan^{-1} (\frac{v^{2} }{Rg} )\\\theta =tan^{-1} (\frac{(102*0.447)^{2} }{1000*0.3048*9.8} )=34.84

Two sinusoidal waves are identical except for their phase. When these two waves travel along the same string, for which phase di
Kamila [148]

Answer:

zero or 2π is maximum

Explanation:

Sine waves can be written

      x₁ = A sin (kx -wt + φ₁)

     x₂ = A sin (kx- wt + φ₂)

When the wave travels in the same direction

      Xt = x₁ + x₂

      Xt = A [sin (kx-wt + φ₁) + sin (kx-wt + φ₂)]

We are going to develop trigonometric functions, let's call

     a = kx + wt

     Xt = A [sin (a + φ₁) + sin (a + φ₂)

We develop breasts of double angles

     sin (a + φ₁) = sin a cos φ₁ + sin φ₁ cos a

    sin (a + φ₂) = sin a cos φ₂ + sin φ₂ cos a

Let's make the sum

     sin (a + φ₁) + sin (a + φ₂) = sin a (cos φ₁ + cos φ₂) + cos a (sin φ₁ + sinφ₂)

to have a maximum of the sine function, the cosine of fi must be maximum

     cos φ₁ + cos φ₂ = 1 +1 = 2

the possible values ​​of each phase are

     φ1 = 0, π, 2π  

     φ2 = 0, π, 2π,  

so that the phase difference of being zero or 2π is maximum

Assume that the mass has been moving along its circular path for some time. You start timing its motion with a stopwatch when it
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

v = R\omega(-sin\omega t \hat i + cos\omega t \hat j)

Explanation:

As we know that the mass is revolving with constant angular speed in the circle of radius R

So we will have

\theta = \omega t

now the position vector at a given time is

r = Rcos\theta \hat i + R sin\theta \hat j

now the linear velocity is given as

v = \frac{dr}{dt}

v = (-R sin\theta \hat i + R cos\theta \hat j)\frac{d\theta}{dt}

v = R\omega(-sin\omega t \hat i + cos\omega t \hat j)
