Solution: The correct order is: C, A, B
The statement of the problem:
How can we prove Earth is round and calculate its circumference?
Hypotheis:
If the sun casts shadows at different angles at the same time of day in different places, we can determine how much Earth curves.
If the Earth was flat, the angle measured at different places at the same time of the day would be same.
Observation:
In Syene, the sun's rays are vertical at noon. At the same time in Alexandria, the rays are 7.2 degrees from the vertical.
If you did this then it could lead to cheating or someone else getting hurt.
Answer:
The energy of this particle in the ground state is E₁=1.5 eV.
Explanation:
The energy 
of a particle of mass <em>m</em> in the <em>n</em>th energy state of an infinite square well potential with width <em>L </em>is:
In the ground state (n=1). In the first excited state (n=2) we are told the energy is E₂= 6.0 eV. If we replace in the above equation we get that:
So we can rewrite the energy in the ground state as:
Finally
Answer:
1.6 secs
Explanation:
In a circus act, an acrobat upwards from the surface of a trampoline
At that same moment another acrobat perched 9.0m above him
A ball is released from rest
While still in motion the acrobat catches the ball
He left the ball with a trampoline of 5.6m/s
Since the ball is falling downwards from a distance then acceleration will be negative
a= -9.8
s= d
s= 1/2at^2
= 1/2 × (-9.8)t^2
= 0.5× (-9.8)t^2
d = -4.9t^2
Therefore the time the acrobat stays in the air before catching the ball can be calculated as follows
9 - 4.9t^2= 5.6t + 1/2(-9.8)t^2
9 - 4.9t^2= 5.6t + (-4.9)t^2
9 - 4.9t^2= 5.6t - 4.9t^2
9= 5.6t
t= 9/5.6
t= 1.6 secs
Answer:
Fnet=7200 N
Explanation:
Fnet=mass x acceleration
mass= 1600kg acceleration=4.5m/s^2
