A professor uses a video camera to record the motion of an object falling from a height of 250 meters. The function f(x) = –5x2

+ 250 can be used to represent the approximate height of the object off the ground after x seconds. Which is the best estimate for the amount of time elapsed when the object is 120 meters off the ground? 4 seconds 5 seconds 6 seconds 7 seconds

120 = - 5 x² + 250
5 x² = 250 - 120
5 x² = 130
x² = 130 : 5 = 26
x = √26 = 5.099 s ≈ 5 s

A 3.00-g copper penny at 25.0°C drops from a height of50.0 m to the ground. (
Gnoma [55]
The potential energy, E, of the penny is given by E=mgh.  The energy, Q, required to raise the temperature of an object by an amount ΔT is given by Q=mcΔT.  We can equate these two to get the result but we must use proper units and include the 60%:
(0.6)mgh=mcΔT
We see we can divide out the mass from each side
0.6gh=cΔT,   then 0.6gh/c=ΔT
(0.6)9.81(m/s²)50m/385(J/kg°C) = 0.7644°C
since this is the change in temperature and it started at 25°C we get
T=25.7644°C
As you can see the result does not depend on mass.  The more massive the copper object the more potential energy it will have to contribute to the heat energy, but the more stuff there will be to heat up, and the effect is that the mass cancels.

What type of triangle has side lengths 12, 13, and 2√3?
Travka [436]

Answer:

The triangle is an obtuse scalene triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

if c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2} --------> is a right triangle

if c^{2}>a^{2}+b^{2} --------> is an obtuse triangle

if c^{2} --------> is an acute triangle

where

c is the greater side

we have

c=13\ units

a=12\ units

b=2\sqrt{3}\ units

so

c^{2}=13^{2}=169

a^{2}+b^{2}=12^{2}+(2\sqrt{3})^{2}=156

so

c^{2}>a^{2}+b^{2} -------> is an obtuse triangle

Remember that

The given triangle has three different length side

so

Is a scalene triangle

therefore

The triangle is an obtuse scalene triangle

2.5 kg of cabbages cost £1.20<br><br> Work out the cost of 3.75 kg
s2008m [1.1K]
Thank you for your question!

In order to get the cost of 1 kg of cabbage, divide the cost by the quantity:

1.20/2.5
0.48

Now, multiply the amount for 1 kg to 3.75, because you need 3.75 times the amount.

0.48 * 3.75
1.80

So, it would cost 1.80 pounds for 3.75 kg.
Hope this helped!
