An 80.0-kg object is falling and experiences a drag force due to air resistance. The magnitude of this drag force depends on its

speed, v, and obeys the equation Fdrag=(12.0N⋅s/m)v+(4.00N⋅s2/m2)v2. What is the terminal speed of this object?A. 72.2 m/sB. 12.6 m/sC. 47.3 m/sD. 34.2 m/sE. 6.45 m/s

Answer:

The terminal speed of this object is 12.6 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the object, m = 80 kg

The magnitude of drag force is,

F_{drag}=12v+4v^2

The terminal speed of an object is attained when the gravitational force is balanced by the gravitational force.

F_{drag}=mg

12v+4v^2=80\times 9.8

4v^2+12v=784

On solving the above quadratic equation, we get two values of v as :

v = 12.58 m/s

v = -15.58 m/s (not possible)

So, the terminal speed of this object is 12.6 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

choosing a material that will show warning before it fails

Explanation:

According to my research on different architectural engineering techniques, I can say that based on the information provided within the question this is an example of choosing a material that will show warning before it fails. By choosing aluminum he can detect certain failures a long time before it actually happens since aluminum shows signs of wear and tear and doesn't just break immediately.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

A metal ball with diameter of a half a centimeter and hanging from an insulating thread is charged up with 1010 excess electrons
liraira [26]

When the metals touch together, half the charge of the charged metal flows to the other because the electrons all repel each other. Therefore this also means that each metal ball contains the same amount of electrons. Each ball has 5^10 electrons, this is equivalent to a total charge of:

Q1 = Q2 = (1.602 * 10^-19 coulombs / electron) 5^10 electrons = Q

Q = 1.564 * 10^-12 C

 

Now using the Coulombs law to find for the electric force:

F = k q1 q2 / r^2 = k (Q)^2 / r^2

where k is a contant = 9 * 10^9 N m^2 / C^2

r = the distance of the two metals = 0.2 m

So,

F = (9 * 10^9 N m^2 / C^2) (1.564 * 10^-12 C)^2 / (0.2 m)^2

F = 5.51 * 10^-13 N

 

Since the two metals repel therefore they are the one which exerts the force hence the magnitude must be negative:

<span>F = - 5.51 * 10^-13 N</span>
