Three protons occupy the vertex of an equilateral triangle with each side of 1 cm. Mp= 1.67E-27 kg, qp= 1.6E-19 C.

a) release all three protons from rest, what is the max speed of each proton?

b) Only one proton is released while the other two are fixed. Find the speed of the moving proton after a long time.

could you please explain constructive interference and destructive interference I'm having trouble wrapping my brain around it I'm completely lost. thank you

A car drives straight off the edge of a cliff that is h =52 m high. The police at the scene of the accident note that the point of impact is d =88 m from the base of the cliff. Here the initial speed v0 is unknown. Ignore air resistance. The magnitude of the gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s2. Choose the RIGHT as positive x-direction. Choose UPWARD as postitive y-direction. Keep 2 decimal places in all answers

(a) In this problem, even though the initial speed v0 is unknown, you can still find v0y, the y component of the initial velocity. What is v0y (in m/s)?

(b) How long (in seconds) is the car in the air before hitting the ground?

(c) How fast (in m/s) was the car traveling when it leaves the cliff?

(d) What is the vertical component of the velocity (in m/s) just before the car hits the ground? Pay attention to the direction (the sign).

(e) What is the magnitude of the velocity (in m/s) (including both the horizontal and vertical components) of the car just before it hits the ground?

(f) What is the direction of the velocity of the car just before it hits the ground? Report the direction by an angle COUNTERCLOCKWISE from the +x axis.

(g) Assume the car’s new speed leaving the cliff is 75.0 mph but the height of the cliff is unchanged, still 52 m.

- What is the new speed in m/s? 1mile = 1609 m, 1 hour = 60 minutes, 1 minute = 60 seconds

- What is the time interval (in seconds) from the car leaving the cliff to it hitting the ground?

- What would be the horizontal distance d (in meters) from the base of the cliff to the impact point?

7. As a mass tied to the end of a string swings from its highest point down to its lowest point, it is acted on by three forces: gravity, tension, and air resistance. Which force does (a) positive work? (b) negative work? (c) zero work?

A boy standing on top of a building throws a small ball from a height of H₁ = 45.0 m. (See figure.) The ball leaves with a speed of 26.9 m/s, at an angle of 61.0 degrees from the horizontal, and lands on a building with a height of H₂ = 12.0 m. Calculate for how long the ball is in the air. (Neglect air friction, and use g = 9.81 m/s².)

Suppose you find a magnifying glass in a junk drawer at home. You place it directly in between a light bulb and the wall, which are separated by 95 cm. When the lens is 15 cm from the wall it creates a focused image of the bulb. (a) Determine the focal length of the magnifying glass lens. (b) Without moving the light bulb (or the wall) at what other location would the lens project a focused image of the bulb on the wall? (c) Find the ratio of the image sizes of the two cases. (d) If the bulb is moved too close to the wall there will be no way possible to project a focused image – determine this distance and explain.

What are possible reasons for the differences between the measured and calculated values of centripetal force?

Two capacitors, C₁ = 15.0 µF and C₂ = 44.0 µF, are connected in series, and a 18.0-V battery is connected across them.

(a) Find the equivalent capacitance, and the energy contained in this equivalent capacitor.

equivalent capacitance ________uF

total energy stored ________J

(b) Find the energy stored in each individual capacitor.

energy stored in C1 ______J

energy stored in C2 ______J

Show that the sum of these two energies is the same as the energy found in part (a). Will this equality always be true, or does it depend on the number of capacitors and their capacitances?

(c) If the same capacitors were connected in parallel, what potential difference would be required across them so that the combination stores the same energy as in part (a)?

______V

Need a simple explanation as to how gyroscope precession occur in a  spinning wheel which is held up by one end of its axle.

A projectile is launched vertically given the following: 1. The initial velocity of the projectile is 3 m/s. 2. The mass of the projectile is 0.57 kg. 3. Air resistance acts on the projectile with a force of 0.5v at any given time. If the projectile is launched from an initial height of 3 m., what is its maximum height?

You are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the Empire State Building. Before the state legislature votes on funding for the project, they would like you to prepare a report on the benefits of upgrading the elevators. One of the numbers that they have requested is the time it will take the elevator to go from the ground floor to the 102nd floor observatory. They are unlikely to approve the project unless the new elevators make the trip much faster than the old elevators. If state law mandates that elevators cannot accelerate at greater than 2.70 m/s2 or travel faster than 15.3 m/s, what is the minimum time in which an elevator can travel the 373 m from the ground floor to the observatory floor?

A 10 kg ball moving at 6 m/s strikes a 5 kg ball that is at rest, with contact of 0.5 seconds. The 10 kg ball comes to a complete stop.
(a) What average force was exerted on the 10 kg ball?
(b) What average force was exerted on the 5 kg ball?
(c) What is the final momentum of the 5 kg ball?
(d) What is the initial momentum of the 10 kg ball?

The arrangement in the drawing shows a block (mass = 15.2 kg) that is held in position on a frictionless incline by a cord (length = 0.580 m). The mass per unit length of the cord is 1.28 × 10-2 kg/m, so the mass of the cord is negligible compared to the mass of the block. The cord is being vibrated at a frequency of 150 Hz (vibration source not shown in the drawing). What is the smallest angle θ between 15.0 ° and 90.0 ° at which a standing wave exists on the cord?
