T = √(h)/(0.5)(9.81)
t = √(25)/(4.905)
t = √5.1
t = 2.26 seconds

hope this helps and have a great day :)

Question: <span>Often what one expects to see influences what is perceived in the surrounding environment. True or False?

Answer: True

Reason: What we observe about the environment decides what we believe about it and how we react.


Hope This Helps :-)

Susan and Hannah are each riding a swing. Susan has a mass of 25 kilograms, and Hannah has a mass of 30 kilograms. Susan’s swing
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is given by:

K.E. = 0.5 m v²

Susan has mass, m = 25 kg

Velocity with which Susan moves is, v = 10 m/s

Hannah has mass, m' = 30 kg

Velocity with which Hannah moves is, v' = 8.5 m/s

<u>Kinetic energy of Susan:</u>

0.5 m v² = 0.5 × 25 kg × (10 m/s)² = 1250 J

<u>Kinetic energy of Hannah:</u>

0.5 m v'² = 0.5 × 30 kg × (8.5 m/s)² = 1083.75 J

Susan's kinetic energy is <u>1250 J </u>and Hannah's kinetic energy is <u>1083.75 J</u>.

Since kinetic energy is dependent on mass and square of speed. Thus, speed has a greater effect than mass. As it is evident from the above example. Susan has greater kinetic energy due to higher speed than Hannah.

Oceanographers use submerged sonar systems, towed by a cable from a ship, to map the ocean floor. In addition to their downward
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Tension in the cable is T = 16653.32 N

Explanation:

Give data:

Cross section Area A = 1.3 m^2

Drag coefficient CD = 1.2

Velocity V = 4.3 m/s

Angle made by cable with horizontal  =30 degree

Density \rho \ of\  water= 1000 kg/m3

 Drag force FD is given as

F_{D} = \fracP{1}{2} \rho v^{2} C_{D} A

        = 0.5\times 1000\times 4.32\times  1.2\times 1.3

Drag force = 14422.2 N acting opposite to the motion

As cable made angle  of 30 degree with horizontal  thus horizontal component is take into action to calculate drag force

TCos30 = F_D

T = \frac{F_D}{cos30}

T =\frac{ 14422.2}{cos 30}

T = 16653.32 N

A large solar panel on a spacecraft in Earth orbit produces 1.0 kW of power when the panel is turned toward the sun. What power
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

e*P_s = 11 W

Explanation:

Given:

- e*P = 1.0 KW

- r_s = 9.5*r_e

- e is the efficiency of the panels

Find:

What power would the solar cell produce if the spacecraft were in orbit around Saturn

Solution:

- We use the relation between the intensity I and distance of light:

                                  I_1 / I_2 = ( r_2 / r_1 ) ^2

- The intensity of sun light at Saturn's orbit can be expressed as:

                                  I_s = I_e * ( r_e / r_s ) ^2

                                  I_s = ( 1.0 KW / e*a) * ( 1 / 9.5 )^2

                                  I_s = 11 W / e*a

- We know that P = I*a, hence we have:

                                  P_s = I_s*a

                                  P_s = 11 W / e

Hence,                       e*P_s = 11 W
