    Need help with projectiles initial velocity using height and distance

    home run that was estimated to have landed 180 metres from the home plate and to have reached a height of 21.3 metres. Calculate the initial velocity of the ball. u^2=v^2-2as t=? u=? v=0 s=180 a=g= -9.8 u^2= √0^2-2x-9.8x180 u= 59.9 m/s am I using the right equation for...

    Convex mirror question how long the image is?

    Yes sorry another typo it is 150 i did the calculation with 150 but typed in 50.

    Convex mirror question how long the image is?

    its suppose to be 1/v=1/f-1/u (trying to find image distance) 1/v=1/-10 -1/50 v= -9.4cm then with part b i think i use the magnification and multiply it with the height of object to get image size 0.06 x 12cm= 0.75cm

    Convex mirror question how long the image is?

    Shiny lawn spheres placed on pedestals are convex mirrors. One such sphere has a diameter of 40 cm. A 12 cm long robin sits in a tree 1.5 m from the sphere. (a) Where is the image of the robin? (b) How long is the image? f=R/2 to find radius 1/v=1/f-1/u to find image distance (the mirror...

    Violet light refraction from air to glass

    A ray of violet light enters a 60° glass prism at an angle of incidence of 40°. If the refractive index of the prism material for violet light is 1.651 calculate: (a) The angle of refraction for the air-glass boundary (b) The critical angle for violet leaving the glass (c) The...
