66. Calculate the displacement and velocity at times of (a) 0.500 s, (b) 1.00 s, (c) 1.50 s, and (d) 2.00 s for a ball thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 15.0 m/s.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

a) t=1s

y = 10.1m

v=5.2m/s

b) t=1.5s

y =11.475 m

v=0.3m/s

c) t=2s

y =10.4 m

v=-4.6m/s  (The minus sign (-) indicates that the ball is already going down)

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

We apply the free fall formula for position (y) and speed (v) at any time (t).

As gravity opposes movement the sign in the equations is negative.:  

y = vi*t - ½ g*t2 Equation 1

v=vit-g*t  Equation 2

y: The vertical distance the ball moves at time t  

vi: Initial speed

g= acceleration due to gravity

v= Speed the ball moves at time t  

Known information

We know the following data:

Vi=15 m / s

g =9.8 (m)/(s^(2) )

t=1s ,1.5s,2s

Development of problem

We replace t in the equations (1) and (2)  

a) t=1s

y = 15*1 - ½ 9.8*1^(2)=15-4.9=10.1m

v=15-9.8*1 =15-9.8 =5.2m/s

b) t=1.5s

y = 15*1.5 - ½ 9.8*1.5^(2)=22.5-11.025=11.475 m

v=15-9.8*1.5 =15-14.7=0.3m/s

c) t=2s

y = 15*2 - ½ 9.8*2^(2)= 30-19.6=10.4 m

v=15-9.8*2 =15-19.6=-4.6m/s  (The minus sign (-) indicates that the ball is already going down)

In a nuclear power plant, _____. energy is released from the nuclei of atoms energy is released from the bonds of molecules energy is released from the electrons of atoms energy is stored in the nucleus of atoms

Answers

In a nuclear power plant, energy is released from the nuclei of atoms. The correct option among all the options given in the question is the first option. Huge amount of thermal energy is released by the breaking of the uranium atoms. This energy is used for turning a turbine that produces electricity. It is a very clean method of producing electricity. 

Answer: energy is released from the nuclei of atoms

Explanation:

Chemical energy is the energy stored in the bonds of molecules.

Nuclear energy is the energy stored in the nucleus of the atom.

Nuclear power plants use heat produced during nuclear fission to heat water which is produced by the splitting of heavy nucleus into lighter elements by release of energy.

The complete nuclear fission reaction is:

_(92)^(235)\textrm{U}+_0^1\textrm{n}\rightarrow _(56)^(143)Ba+_(36)^(90)Kr+3_0^1\textrm{n}

How is wave velocity calculated?

Answers

Velocity of a wave (v) = frequency (f) × wavelength (λ)As mentioned above, the velocity of a wave is related with its frequency and wavelength by the following equation. In order to find the velocity of sound using this equation, we need to know both the frequency and the wavelength of sound.

Calculate the wavelength of violet light with a frequency of 750×10 to the 12

Answers

The wavelength of violet light with a frequency of 750 × 10^12 Hz is  400 nanometers (nm).

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs of a wave, representing the length of one complete cycle of the wave. It is commonly used to describe the size or scale of various types of waves, including electromagnetic waves such as light.

To calculate the wavelength of light, you can use the formula:

wavelength = speed of light/frequency

The speed of light is approximately 3.00 × 10^8 meters per second.

Let's plug in the values:

frequency = 750 × 10^12 Hz

speed of light = 3.00 × 10^8 m/s

wavelength = (3.00 × 10^8 m/s) / (750 × 10^12 Hz)

Simplifying the expression:

wavelength = (3.00 / 750) × (10^8 / 10^12) m

wavelength = 4.00 × 10^-4 m

Therefore, the wavelength of violet light is approximately 4.00 × 10^-4 meters or 400 nanometers (nm).

Wavelength (L) is equal to the Speed of Light (c) divided by the Frequency (f) ; L = c / f

L = (299,792,458 m/s) / (750E12 Hz) = 3.9972E-7 = 399.72E-9
or roughly 400 nanometers
