Let be the height of the building and thus the initial height of the ball. The ball's altitude at time is given by
where is the acceleration due to gravity.
The ball reaches the ground when after . Solve for :
so the building is about 16 m tall (keeping track of significant digits).
Answer:
The magnitude of the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.
Explanation:
Given that,
Point charge at origin = 2 nC
Second charge = 5 nC
Distance at x axis = 8 m
We need to calculate the electric field at the point x = 2 m
Using formula of electric field
Put the value into the formula
The direction is toward positive x- axis.
Hence, The magnitude of the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.
Answer:
44.6 N
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram of the block. There are four forces on the block:
Weight force mg pulling down,
Normal force N pushing up,
Friction force Nμ pushing left,
and applied force F pulling right 30° above horizontal.
Sum of forces in the y direction:
∑F = ma
N + F sin 30° − mg = 0
N = mg − F sin 30°
Sum of forces in the x direction:
∑F = ma
F cos 30° − Nμ = 0
F cos 30° = Nμ
N = F cos 30° / μ
Substitute:
mg − F sin 30° = F cos 30° / μ
mg = F sin 30° + (F cos 30° / μ)
Plug in values:
mg = 20 N sin 30° + (20 N cos 30° / 0.5)
mg = 44.6 N
The image produced is magnified and real.
