<span>1.8 meters Since the ball loses 23.0% of it's energy with each bounce, that means that it retains 100% - 23.0% = 77.0% of it's energy per bounce. And since it bounces 3 times, that means that it will have 0.77^3 = 0.456533 = 45.6533% of it's original energy after the third bounce. So it will reach 45.6533% of it's original height after the third bounce. So 45.6533% * 4.0 = 0.456533 * 4.0 m = 1.8 m</span>

Water is pumped from a lower reservoir to a higher reservoir by a pump that provides 20 kW of shaft power. The free surface of t
kifflom [539]

Answer:

6.5 kW

Explanation:

Input power = 20 kW = 20000 W

h = 45 m

Volume flow per second = 0.03 m^3 /s

mass flow per second = volume flow per second x density of water

                                    = 0.03 x 1000 = 30 kg/s

Output power = m g h / t = 30 x 10 x 45 = 13500 W

Power converted in form of heat = Input power - Output power

                                                       = 20000 - 13500 = 6500 W = 6.5 kW

Thus, mechanical power converted into heat is 6.5 kW.

In a study, the data you collect is Habits on a Always/Sometimes/Never scale.What is the level of measurement?
zzz [600]

Answer:

Ordinal

Explanation:

There are four levels of measurement which include the nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio. The data collected above is ordinal data as it qualifies the data and still indicates the ordering of the data. It gives the observer an idea of the range of data collected or its rating although mathematical calculations may not be done with it.

The other forms of data include the nominal which simply qualifies the data, the interval which qualifies the data but which the differences between the data can be obtained, and of course the data has no starting point. The ratio scale which is similar to the interval scale but which the ratios between the data obtained can be compared.

---&gt;Two aircraft P and Q are flying at the same speed. 300 m/s, The direction along which P is flying is at right angles to t
REY [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the velocity of the aircraft P relative to aircraft Q is zero

Explanation:

The velocity of the two aircraft, P & Q, v = 300 m/s

The angle of the direction between them, Ф = 90°

The magnitude of the velocity of aircraft P relative to aircraft Q is given by the formula

                                  <em> V = v cos Ф </em>

Substituting the values in the above equation

                                   v = 300 x cos 90°

                                      = 300 x 0

                                      = 0

Since the aircraft are at right angles, the velocity of one aircraft relative to the other is zero.

You are on vacation in San Francisco and decide to take a cable car to see the city. A 5800-kgkg cable car goes 260 mm up a hill
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

4.325\times10^6J

Explanation:

Mass of the cable car, m = 5800 kg

It goes 260 m up a hill, along a slope of \theta=17^o

Therefore vertical elevation of the car = 260sin\theta=260sin17^o=76.0166m

Now, when you get into the cable car, it's velocity is zero, that is, initial kinetic energy is zero (since K.E. = \frac{1}{2} mv^2). Similarly as the car reaches the top, it halts and hence final kinetic energy is zero.

Therefore the only possible change in the cable car system is the change in it's gravitational potential energy.

Hence, total change in energy = mgh = 5800\times9.81\times76.0166J=4.325\times10^6J

where, g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height/vertical elevation

Which of the following characteristics of Earth's relationship to the Sun explains the existence of Earth's seasons? Choose all
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Earth's axis is tilted relative to its orbital plane.

Earth orbits around the Sun, completing one orbit each year

Explanation:

The earth tilt at an angle causes the sun rays to hit the earth surface around the globe differently. Due to the oblique angle that the rays hit the subtropics and poles, there is less heat intensity compared to the equator where the sun rays hit the earth's surface at a more or less right angle.

The earth rotation around the sun also causes seasons coupled with the earth’s tilts. As the earth rotates, in one point in the orbit, the northern or southern hemispheres will be tilted towards the sun. The phenomenon varies the local temperatures of particular regions of the earth hence driving seasonal climatic changes.
