A life preserver is thrown from an helicopter straight down to a person in distress. The initial velocity of the life preserver

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:29.627 m

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity of life preserver(u) is 1.6 m/s

it takes 2.3 s to reach the water

using equation of motion

v=u+at

$v=1.6+9.81\times 2.3$

v=24.163 m/s

Let s be the height of life preserver

$v^2-u^2=2gs$

$24.163^2-1.6^2=2\times 9.81\times s$

$s=\frac{581.29}{2\times 9.81}$

s=29.627 m

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

m is the mass of object

$m=\dfrac{W}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}$

m = 0.25 kg

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}$

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}$

k = 24.09 N/m

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

Through what potential difference would you need to accelerate an alpha particle, starting from rest, so that it will just reach

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

$\Delta V = 1.8 \times 10^7 V$

Explanation:

GIVEN

diameter = 15 fm = $15 \times 10^{-15}$ m

we use here energy conservation

$K_{i}+U_{i} =K_{f}+U_{f}$

there will be some initial kinetic energy but after collision kinetic energy will zero

$K_{i} + 0 = 0 + \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _{0}} \frac{(2e)(92e)}{7.5 \times 10^{-15}}$

on solving these equations we get kinetic energy initial

$KE_{i} = 5.65\times 10 ^{-12} \times \frac {1 eV}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}$

$KE_{i} = 35.33$ J ..............(i)

That is, the alpha particle must be fired with 35.33 MeV of kinetic energy. An alpha particle with charge q = 2 e

and gains kinetic energy K =e∆V ..........(ii)

by accelerating through a potential difference ∆V

Thus the alpha particle will

just reach the ${238}_U$ nucleus after being accelerated through a potential difference ∆V

equating (i) and second equation we get

e∆V = 35.33 Me V

$\Delta V = \frac{35.33}{2} MV\\\Delta V = 1.8 \times 10^7 V$
