Answer:
4.163 m
Explanation:
Since the length of the bridge is
L = 380 m
And the bridge consists of 2 spans, the initial length of each span is
Due to the increase in temperature, the length of each span increases according to:
where
is the initial length of one span
is the temperature coefficient of thermal expansion
is the increase in temperature
Substituting,
By using Pythagorean's theorem, we can find by how much the height of each span rises due to this thermal expansion (in fact, the new length corresponds to the hypothenuse of a right triangle, in which the base is the original length of the spand, and the rise in heigth is the other side); so we find:
Answer:
2.11 m/s
Explanation:
Take north to be positive and south to be negative.
Average velocity = displacement / time
v = (82 m + -44 m) / (14 s + 4 s)
v = 2.11 m/s
The velocity is positive, so it is 2.11 m/s north. The magnitude of the velocity is 2.11 m/s.
The lemon battery hypothesis states that a lemon is acidic enough to carry an electric charge and act as a battery.
Gravitational potential energy ...
= (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) x (height)
= (20 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (30 m)
= (20 x 9.8 x 30) kg-m²/sec²
= 5,880 joules
