Two boys are at the top of a waterslide at Seven Peaks Water Park. One boy (boy A) slips off the top of the tower and falls unobstructed into the pool below. At the same moment the other boy (boy B) starts sliding down the slide and lands in the same pool. Ignoring air resistance and friction, which boy will splash into the water first and which will have the greater speed when he hits the water?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: boy B, same

Explanation:

Given

One boy trips off the waterslide while the other starts sliding down

As there is no horizontal velocity, both boys have to travel the same vertical distance.

Their starting vertical velocity is zero and they need to travel the same vertical distance. Therefore, both boys splash water with the same velocity.

The time taken by boy B is more than boy A as boy B will travel some horizontal distance due to slide which will increase its time to reach the bottom.

A quantum dot may be modeled as an electron in a spherical well with perfectly reflecting walls. Design a quantum dot whose characteristic frequency of emission is 10 GHz, where characteristic frequency corresponds to decay from the first excited state to the ground state. In other words, obtain the radius a of the spherical cavity that has this property

Answers

Answer:

radius = 37.69 mm

Explanation:

Calculate the radius a of the spherical cavity that has this property

Frequency of emission = 10 GHz

This problem is similar to infinite spherical wall potential

first step:

Express the energy eigenvalue of the system : [tex]E_{100} =E_{Is} = \frac{9.87h^2}{2ma^2}[/tex]

First excited state energy can be expressed as : E[tex]_{IP}[/tex] = 20.19 h^2 / 2ma^2

Given that the frequency of emission (γ )   = 10 GHz

next step :

calculate the energy of emitted photon ( E ) = h γ

= 6.626 * 10^-36 * 10 * 10^9

= 6.626 * 10^-24 joules

E[tex]_{IP}[/tex]  - E[tex]_{IS}[/tex] = 6.626 * 10^-24

∴ a^2 = 1.42 * 10^-13  m^2

hence a = √ 1.42 * 10^-13 m^2   = 37.69 * 10^-6 m ≈  37.69 mm

Answers

Answer:

a) the x-component of the net momentum is 44200 kgm/s [tex](-x)[/tex]

b) the y-component of the net momentum is 31200 kgm/s [tex](y)[/tex]

c) the magnitude of the net momentum is 54102.5 kgm/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) x-component of the net momentum of this system.

the second vehicle ( sedan ) doesn't have momentum along x-axis, the momentum along x-axis is strictly contributed by the pick up

so;

Px = 2600 kg × 17.0 m/s [tex](-x)[/tex]

Px = 44200 kgm/s [tex](-x)[/tex]

Therefore, the x-component of the net momentum is 44200 kgm/s [tex](-x)[/tex]

b) y-component of the net momentum of this system

Also, momentum along y-axis is entirely provided by the sedan

Py = 1300 kg × 24.0 m/s [tex](y)[/tex]

Py = 31200 kgm/s [tex](y)[/tex]

Therefore, the y-component of the net momentum is 31200 kgm/s [tex](y)[/tex]

c) magnitude of the net momentum?

magnitude of the net momentum P = √( Px² + Py² )

so we substitute  

P = √( (44200)² + (31200)² )

P = √( 2927080000 )

P = 54102.5 kgm/s

Therefore, the magnitude of the net momentum is 54102.5 kgm/s

6. What is the wavelength of a wave that is traveling at 30 m/s and has a frequency of 3.2 Hz?

Answers

Answer:

6. 9.4 m

7. 1050 m/s.

Explanation:

6. Determination of the wavelength

Velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Frequency (f) = 3.2 Hz

Wavelength (λ) =?

v = λf

30 = λ × 3.2

Divide both side by 3.2

λ = 30 / 3.2

λ = 9.4 m

Thus, the wavelength of the wave is 9.4 m.

7. Determination of the speed of the wave.

Wavelength (λ) = 350 m

Frequency (f) = 3 Hz

Velocity (v) =.?

v = λf

v = 350 × 3

v = 1050 m/s

Thus, the speed of the wave is 1050 m/s

A knife thrower throws a knife toward a 300 g target that is sliding in her direction at a speed of 2.30 m/s on a horizontal frictionless surface. She throws a 22.5 g knife at the target with a speed of 40.0 m/s. The target is stopped by the impact and the knife passes through the target. Determine the speed of the knife (in m/s) after passing through the target.

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the knife after passing through the target is 9.33 m/s.

Explanation:

We can find the speed of the knife after the impact by conservation of linear momentum:

[tex] p_{i} = p_{f} [/tex]

[tex] m_{k}v_{i_{k}} + m_{t}v_{i_{t}} = m_{k}v_{f_{k}} + m_{t}v_{f_{t}} [/tex]

Where:

[tex] m_{k}[/tex]: is the mass of the knife = 22.5 g = 0.0225 kg

[tex] m_{t}[/tex]: is the mass of the target = 300 g = 0.300 kg

[tex] v_{i_{k}}[/tex]: is the initial speed of the knife = 40.0 m/s

[tex] v_{i_{t}} [/tex]: is the initial speed of the target = 2.30 m/s

[tex]v_{f_{k}}[/tex]: is the final speed of the knife =?

[tex] v_{f_{t}} [/tex]: is the final speed of the target = 0 (it is stopped)

Taking as a positive direction the direction of the knife movement, we have:

[tex] m_{k}v_{i_{k}} - m_{t}v_{i_{t}} = m_{k}v_{f_{k}} [/tex]  

[tex] v_{f_{k}} = \frac{m_{k}v_{i_{k}} - m_{t}v_{i_{t}}}{m_{k}} = \frac{0.0225 kg*40.0 m/s - 0.300 kg*2.30 m/s}{0.0225 kg} = 9.33 m/s [/tex]

Therefore, the speed of the knife after passing through the target is 9.33 m/s.

the gravitational attraction between two masses of 3kg that are separated by a distance of 1cm is

Answers

Answer:

6.003×10¯⁶ N

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 1 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

1 cm = 1 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

1 cm = 0.01 m

Finally, we shall determine the gravitational attraction. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass 1 (M₁) = 3 Kg

Mass 2 (M₂) = 3 Kg

Distance apart (r) = 0.01 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Force of attraction (F) =?

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 3 × / 0.01²

F = 6.003×10¯¹⁰ / 1×10¯⁴

F = 6.003×10¯⁶ N

Thus the gravitational attraction is 6.003×10¯⁶ N

A 2-kg ball is thrown at a speed of ____, exhibits 25j of kinetic energy.

Answers

Answer:

A 2-kg ball is thrown at a speed of 5 m/s, exhibits 25 J of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a ball, m = 2 kg

Kinetic energy of the ball, K = 25 J

We need to find the speed of the ball. The formula for the kinetic energy is given by :

[tex]K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2K}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 25}{2}} \\\\v=5\ m/s[/tex]

So,

A 2-kg ball is thrown at a speed of 5 m/s, exhibits 25 J of kinetic energy.

Find the magnitude and sign of q3 needed to make the total electric field at point A equal to zero.\

Answers

Answer:

hello your question has some missing information attached below is the missing information

answer : q3 = 0.300 nC

Explanation:

Given that Eay is in the Y axis ( upward ) , E3 will be downward and this will make the sign on the the charge ( q3 ) to be positive

E3 = Eay.   ( for an electric field to be neutral/zero the electric field in the opposite direction will have same magnitude )

To calculate the value of q3 we will apply the relation below

 K*q3/( 15 - 12 )^2  = 0.300

           = (9 * 10^9) * (q3 / 9 ) = 0.300

∴ q3 = 0.300 / 10^9

        = 0.300 nC

Note : The value of Eay is been calculated outside this solution as it is not part of the question asked  

   

           

Future space rockets might propel themselves by firing laser beams, rather than exhaust gases, out the back. The acceleration would be small, but it could continue for months or years in the vacuum of space. Consider a 1200 kg uncrewed space probe powered by a 15 MW laser. After one year, how far will it have traveled and how fast will it be going

Answers

Answer:

Acceleration = 0.0282 m/s^2

Distance = 13.98 * 10^12 m

Explanation:

we will apply the energy theorem

work done = ΔK.E ( change in Kinetic energy )  ---- ( 1 )

where :

work done = p * t

                  = 15 * 10^6 watts * ( 1 year ) = 473040000 * 10^6 J

( note : convert 1 year to seconds )

and ΔK.E = 1/2 mVf^2   given ; m = 1200 kg  and initial V = 0

back to equation 1

473040000 * 10^6  = 1/2 mv^2

Vf^2 = 2(473040000 * 10^6 ) / 1200

∴ Vf = 887918.92 m/s

i) Determine how fast the rocket is ( acceleration of the rocket )

a = Vf / t

  = 887918.92 / ( 1 year )

  = 0.0282 m/s^2

ii) determine distance travelled by rocket

Vf^2 - Vi^2 = 2as

Vi = 0

hence ; Vf^2 = 2as

s ( distance ) =  Vf^2 / ( 2a )

                     = ( 887918.92 )^2 / ( 2 * 0.0282 )

                    = 13.98 * 10^12 m

Calculate the maximum height (in m) to which water could be squirted if it emerges from the nozzle and emerges with the nozzle removed. (a) Emerges from the nozzle. m (b) Emerges with the nozzle removed, assuming the same flow rate. m

Answers

Answer:

a) 17.086m

b) 0.1671 m

Explanation:

Given data: speed of water through the hose  = 1.81 m/s

through the nozzle = 18.3 m/s

We know that maximum height of an object with upward velocity v is given by,

a) H = v^2/2g

where H is the maximum height water emerges  

= 18.3^2/(2×9.8) = 17.086 m answer

b) Again,  

H = v^2/2g

= 1.81^2/(2×9.8) = 0.1671 m
