Mickey, a daredevil mouse of mass m , m, is attempting to become the world's first "mouse cannonball." He is loaded into a sprin

g-powered gun pointing up at some angle, and is shot into the air. The gun's spring has force constant k k and is initially compressed a distance X X from its relaxed position. If Mickey has a constant horizontal speed V V while he is flying through the air, how high above his initial location in the gun does Mickey soar? Find an expression for Mickey's maximum height h m hm in terms of m , m, V , V, X , X, k , k, and g .

To determine the height of a flagpole, Abby throws a ball straight up and times it. She sees that the ball goes by the top of th
Softa [3030]

Answer:

H = 10.05 m

Explanation:

The stone reaches the top of the flagpole at both t = 0.5 s and t = 4.1 s

therefore, the total duration of the upwards motion above the peak of the pole is provided as

\Delta t = 4.1 - 0.5 = 3.6 s

now we have

\Delta t = \frac{2v}{g}

3.6 = \frac{2v}{9.8}

v = 17.64 m/s

this indicates the speed at the flagpole's top

at this point we have

v_f - v_i = at

17.64 - v_i = (-9.8)(0.5)

v_i = 22.5 m/s

the height of the flagpole is stated as

H = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2}t

H = \frac{22.5 + 17.64}{2} (0.5)

H = 10.05 m

A capacitor with initial charge q0 is discharged through a resistor. What multiple of the time constant τ gives the time the cap
Maru [3345]
a) 0.13*τ; b) 2.08*τ. To describe the discharging process of a capacitor through a resistor, consider the following: Q(t) = Qo * exp(-t/τ) to signify a loss of 1/8 of its charge. In this scenario, Q(t) = 7/8 * Qo = 7/8 * exp(-t/τ). By rearranging, we have ln(7/8)*τ = -t, thus t = -ln(7/8)*τ = 0.13. For a loss of 7/8 of its charge, we use Q(t) = 1/7 * Qo * exp(-t/τ), leading to t = -ln(1/8)*τ = 2.08.
