Without air resistance . . .

           Distance  =  1/2 g T²

               500 m  =  (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (T²)

               500 m  =  (4.9 m/s²) (T²)

Divide each side by   (4.9 m/s²)  :

                  T²  =  (500 m) / (4.9 m/s²)

                       =     102.04 s²

                   T  =  √ (102.04 s²)

                       =       10.1 seconds

Bezzdna [24]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

r=0.053 nm=0.053\times 10^{-9} m

1 nm=10^{-9} m

Charge on proton,q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

a.We have to find the electric  potential of the proton at the position of the electron.

We know that the electric potential

V=\frac{kq}{r}

Where k=9\times 10^9

V=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}

V=27.17 V

B.Potential energy of electron,U=\frac{kq_e q_p}{r}

Where

q_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19} c=Charge on electron

q_p=q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C=Charge on proton

Using the formula

U=\frac{9\times 10^9\times (-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}

U=-4.35\times 10^{-18} J

Moving water, like that of a river, carries sediment as it moves along its bed. The faster the water flows, the more sediment th
katovenus [111]

Correct option: A

An object remains at rest until a force acts on it.

As the water moves faster, it applies greater force on the sediment, which over comes the frictional forces between the bed and the sediment. So, when the river flows faster, more and larger sediment particles are carried away. When the flow slows down, the river couldn't apply enough force on the larger sediments which can overcome the frictional force between the sediment and the river bed. So, the net force on the heavier particles become zero. Hence, the heavier particles of the load will settle out.

For which of the following problems would a scientist most likely use carbon-14?
spayn [35]

Answer:

To calculate the age of a piece of bone

Explanation:

Carbon 14 is an isotope of carbon that is unstable and decays into Nitrogen 14 by emitting an electron. The decay rate of radioactive material is  normally expressed in terms of its "half-life" (the time required by half the radioactive nuclei of a sample to undergo radioactive decay). The nice thing about carbon 14 is that its "half-life" is about 5730 years, which gives a nice reference to measure the age of fossils that are some thousand years old.

Carbon 14 dating is used to determine the age of objects that have been living organisms long ago. They measure how much carbon 14 is left in the object after years of decaying without having exchange with the ambient via respiration, ingestion, absorption, etc. and therefore having renewed the normal amount of carbon 14 that is in the ambient.

A rock is not a living organism, so its age cannot be determined by carbon 14 dating.

An object has a position given by r = [2.0 m + (2.00 m/s)t] i + [3.0 m − (1.00 m/s^2)t^2] j, where quantities are in SI units. W
lidiya [134]

Answer: 1 m/s

Explanation:

We have an object whose position r is given by a vector, where the components X and Y are identified by the unit vectors i and j (where each unit vector is defined to have a magnitude of exactly one):

r=[2 m + (2 m/s) t] i + [3 m - (1 m/s^{2})t^{2}] j

On the other hand, velocity is defined as the variation of the position in time:

V=\frac{dr}{dt}

This means we have to derive r:

\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[2 m + (2 m/s) t] i + \frac{d}{dt}[3 m - (1 m/s^{2})t^{2}] j

\frac{dr}{dt}=(2 m/s) i - (\frac{1}{2} m/s^{2} t) j This is the velocity vector

And when t=2s the velocity vector is:

\frac{dr}{dt}=(2 m/s) i - (\frac{1}{2} m/s^{2} (2 s)) j

\frac{dr}{dt}=2 m/s i - 1m/s j This is the velocity vector at 2 seconds

However, the solution is not complete yet, we have to find the module of this velocity vector, which is the speed S:

S=\sqrt {-1 m/s j + 2 m/s i}

S=\sqrt {1 m/s}

Finally:

S=1 m/s This is the speed of the object at 2 seconds
