Let h = the distance from the edge of the wall to the water surface (m).

Use g = 9.8 m/s² and neglect air resistance.

The initial vertical velocity of the pebble is zero.
Because the pebble hits the surface of the water after 1.5 s, therefore
h = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(1.5 s)² = 11.025 m

Answer:  11.025 m

Answer: 11.025

Explanation:

Let h = the distance from the edge of the wall to the water surface (m).

Use g = 9.8 m/s² and neglect air resistance.

The initial vertical velocity of the pebble is zero.

Because the pebble hits the surface of the water after 1.5 s, therefore

h = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(1.5 s)² = 11.025 m

Two objects are placed in thermal contact and are allowed to come to equilibrium in isolation. the heat capacity of object a is
Harman [31]
Given:
Ca = 3Cb                      (1)
where
Ca =  heat capacity of object A
Cb =  heat capacity f object B

Also,
Ta = 2Tb                     (2)
where
Ta = initial temperature of object A
Tb = initial temperature of object B.

Let
Tf =  final equilibrium temperature of both objects,
Ma = mass of object A,
Mb = mass of object B.

Assuming that all heat exchange occurs exclusively between the two objects, then energy balance requires that
Ma*Ca*(Ta - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb)           (3)

Substitute (1) and (2) into (3).
Ma*(3Cb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb)
3(Ma/Mb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb

Define k = Ma/Mb, the ratio f the masses.
Then
3k(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb
Tf(1+3k) = Tb(1+6k)
Tf = [(1+6k)/(1+3k)]*Tb

Answer:
T_{f} =( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k} )T_{b}= \frac{1}{2}( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k})T_{a}
where
k= \frac{M_{a}}{M_{b}}

Fred wants to summarize mitosis in the cell cycle. Which statement describes mitosis?
salantis [7]
The statement that most accurately describes mitosis simply is <span>that mitosis is a type of cell division in which one cell (the mother) divides to produce two new cells (the daughters) that are genetically identical to itself</span>. This is the most basic textbook definition, that is summary, of what the mitosis is.

A 4kg block is sliding on a horizontal frictionless floor at a speed of 2.5ms and runs into a horizontal spring. The spring has
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mas of block m=4\ kg

speed of block v=2.5\ m/s

spring constant k=30\ N-m

As the mass collides with the spring its kinetic energy is converted to the Elastic Potential energy of the spring

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

x=v\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

x=2.5\times \sqrt{\frac{4}{30}}

x=0.912\ m

A toroidal coil has a mean radius of 16 cm and a cross-sectional area of 0.25 cm2; it is wound uniformly with 1000 turns. A seco
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mutual inductance is equal to magnetic flux induced in the secondary coli due to unit current in the primary coil .

magnetic field in a torroid  B = μ₀ n I , n is number of turns per unit length and I is current .

B = 4π x 10⁻⁷ x (1000 / 2π x .16  )x 1 ( current = 1 A)

flux in the secondary coil

= B x area of face of coil x no of turns of secondary

= 4π x 10⁻⁷ x (1000 /2π x .16  ) .25 x 10⁻⁴ x 750

= 2 x 1000 x .25 x( 750 /.16) x 10⁻¹¹

2343.75 x 10⁻⁸

= 23.43 x 0⁻⁶ H.
