Answer:

s = 23.72 m

v = 21.56 m/s²  

Explanation:

given

time to reach the ground (t) = 2.2 second

we know that

a) s = u t + 0.5 g t²

   u = 0 m/s

   g = 9.8 m/s²

   s = 0 + 0.5 × 9.8 × 2.2²

  s = 23.72 m

b) impact velocity

      v = √(2gh)

      v = √(2× 9.8 × 23.72)    

      v =  √464.912

      v = 21.56 m/s²

Substance X is placed in a container with substance Y. Both substances are fluids. Substance X initially sinks to the bottom of
Brut [27]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Convection is a process in which heat transfers from a hotter substance to a colder substance.

As a result, the substance which is less dense will rise and the more denser substance will sink due to the influence of gravity.

Thus, we can conclude that in the given situation substance X will rise due to convection.

Consider the waveform expression. y (x, t) = ym sin (0.333x + 5.36 + 585t) The transverse displacement (y) of a wave is given as
Sonja [21]

Explanation:

The waveform expression is given by :

y(x,t)=y_m\ sin(0.333x+5.36+585t)...........(1)

Where

y is the position

t is the time in seconds

The general waveform equation is given by :

y(x,t)=y_m\ sin(kx+\phi+\omega t)..........(2)

Where

k=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}

\omega=2\pi f

On comparing equation (1) and (2) we get :

0.333=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}

\lambda=18.86\ m

585=2\pi f

f = 93.10 Hz

Time period, T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T=\dfrac{1}{0.010}

T = 0.010 s

Phase constant, \phi=5.36\ radian

Hence, this is the required solution.

A certain fuse "blows" if the current in it exceeds 1.0 A, at which instant the fuse melts with a current density of What is the
Alborosie

Answer:

<em>0.45 mm</em>

Explanation:

The complete question is

a certain fuse "blows" if the current in it exceeds 1.0 A, at which instant the fuse melts with a current density of 620 A/ cm^2. What is the diameter of the wire in the fuse?

A) 0.45 mm

B) 0.63 mm

C.) 0.68 mm

D) 0.91 mm

Current in the fuse is 1.0 A

Current density of the fuse when it melts is 620 A/cm^2

Area of the wire in the fuse = I/ρ

Where I is the current through the fuse

ρ is the current density of the fuse

Area = 1/620 = 1.613 x 10^-3 cm^2

We know that 10000 cm^2 = 1 m^2, therefore,

1.613 x 10^-3 cm^2 = 1.613 x 10^-7 m^2

Recall that this area of this wire is gotten as

A = \frac{\pi d^{2} }{4}

where d is the diameter of the wire

1.613 x 10^-7 = \frac{3.142* d^{2} }{4}

6.448 x 10^-7 = 3.142 x d^{2}

d^{2} =\sqrt{ 2.05*10^-7}

d = 4.5 x 10^-4 m = <em>0.45 mm</em>

MArishka [77]

Complete Question:

Suppose that an asteroid traveling straight toward the center of the earth were to collide with our planet at the equator and bury itself just below the surface. What would have to be the mass of this asteroid, in terms of the earth’s mass M, for the day to become 25.0% longer than it presently is as a result of the collision? Assume that the asteroid is very small compared to the earth and that the earth is uniform throughout.

Answer:

m = 0.001 M

How about a carousel (merry go round).
For any one horse or rider, Speed is constant but direction keeps changing, so velocity does too.
