2) Billy jumps upward with a velocity of 4.2 m/s off a 6m high diving board. What is his final velocity once he hits the water?

And how long does it take for Billy to hit the water?

Answer:

The calculated value for the final velocity is v = 11.6 \ m/s.

Explanation:

Using the standard kinematic equation,

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

where a is the acceleration, which is equivalent to g.

Thus,

v^2 = u^2 + 2gs

substituting 6 m for s and 4.2 m/s for u,

v^2 = 4.2^2 + 2 * 9.8 * 6

v = 11.6 \ m/s

inna [987]

Answer:

The duration, t = 3.53 seconds

Explanation:

The following information is provided:

The equation to calculate the time t is expressed as:

t=(0.25)s^{1/2}...... (1)

Where

s denotes the distance in feet

We are to determine the duration taken by the stone to fall a distance of 200 feet, where s = 200 feet

Substituting the value of s into equation (1) yields:

t=(0.25)\times (200)^{1/2}

t = 3.53 seconds

Thus, the time taken by the object is 3.53 seconds, which provides the required answer.

A spinning wheel is slowed down by a brake, giving it a constant angular acceleration of 25.60 rad/s2. During a 4.20-s time inte
Yuliya22 [1153]

We will use the equations of rotational kinematics,

\theta =\theta _{0} + \omega_{0} t+ \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2             (A)

\omega^2= \omega^2_{0} +2\alpha\theta                                     (B)                                          

Here, \theta and \theta _{0} denote the final and initial angular displacements, respectively, whereas \omega and \omega_{0} represent final and initial angular velocities, and \alpha is the angular acceleration.

We are provided with \alpha = - 25.60 \ rad/s^2, \theta = 62.4 \ rad and t = 4.20 \ s.

By substituting these values into equation (A), we have

62.4 \ rad = 0 + \omega_{0} 4.20 \ s + \frac{1}{2} (- 25.60 \ rad/s^2) ( 4.20)^2 \\\\ \omega_{0} = \frac{220.5+ 62.4 }{4.20} =67.4 \ rad/s

Now, using equation (B),

\omega^2=(67.4 \ rad/s)^2 + 2 (- 25.60 \ rad/s^2)62.4 \ rad \\\\\ \omega = 36.7 \ rad/s

This indicates that the wheel's angular speed at the 4.20-second mark is 36.7 rad/s.

A solid conducting sphere carrying charge q has radius a. It is inside a concentric hollow conducting sphere with inner radius b
Softa [913]

Response:

Clarification:

Refer to the diagram indicating the charges on the specified sphere (see attachment).

The electric field at the stated positions is

E(r) = 0 for r≤a.  Equation 1

E(r) = kq/r² for a<r<b.   Equation 2

E(r) = 0 for b<r<c.      Equation 3

E(r) = kq/r² for r>c.    Equation 4.

We understand that electric potential correlates with the electric field through

V = Ed

A. To compute the potential at the outer surface of the hollow sphere (r=c), we determine that the electric field there is

E = kQ / r²

Then,

V = Ed,

At d = r = c

Thus,

Vc = (kQ / c²) × c

Vc = kQ / c

As a result, the total charge Q consists of +q, -q, and +q

Hence, Q = q - q + q = q

V = kq / c

B. To calculate the potential at the inner surface of the hollow sphere (r=b), we have

V = kQ/r

V = kQ / b,   noting that r = b

So, Q = q

V = kq / b

C. At r = a

Following from equation 1:

E(r) = 0 for r≤a.  Equation 1

The electric field at the surface of the solid sphere is 0, E = 0N/C

Thus,

V = Ed = 0 V

Consequently, the electric potential at the solid sphere's surface is 0.

D. At r = 0

The electric potential can be determined by

V = kq / r

As r approaches 0,

V = kq / 0

V approaches infinity.

What happens to the particles of a liquid when energy is removed from them?
Softa [913]

Response:

D: The distance among the particles diminishes

Clarification:

Removing energy reduces the activity of molecules, similar to how one slows down in cold temperatures (I believe).

Consider a perfectly insulated cup (no
ValentinkaMS [1149]

Answer:

When ice is subjected to heat, it melts; however, the temperature remains constant at 0◦ C.

Explanation:

Solution

The heat supplied by the heater is solely utilized for the melting of the ice, thus maintaining the temperature at 0◦ C.

Once all the ice has liquefied, the temperature of the resulting water will start to rise over time.

Note: please see the attached document with solutions featuring diagrams related to this explanation
