Answer:

28.7 m.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the coin is dropped from the rest condition at which the initial velocity is 0 m/s, we can compute the height of the precipice via the following equation:

y=y_0+v_0*t-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Whereas the final height is 0, the initial one is to be computed and the gravity is considered as 9.8 m/s², therefore the height turns out:

y=y_0+v_0*t-\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\y_0=\frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}*9.8m/s^2*(2.42s)^2 \\\\y_0=28.7m

It means that the height of the cliff is 28.7 m.

Regards.

Two uncharged metal spheres, #1 and #2, are mounted on insulating support rods. A third metal sphere, carrying a positive charge
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

The question is incomplete as some details are missing, here is the details ;

In this final state

a) spheres #1 and #2 both carry negative charge.

b) sphere #1 carries negative charge and #2 carries positive charge.

c) spheres #1 and #2 are still uncharged.

d) sphere #1 carries positive charge and #2 carries negative charge.

e) spheres #1 and #2 both carry positive charge.

Explanation:

From the concept of electrostatics, if a positively charged sphere is brought close to #2, there will be attraction of the opposite charges(-ve) towards it.

Now connecting a copper wire between #1 and #2, opposite charges will flow from #1 towards #2. disconnecting the copper wire makes #1 to be positively charged and #2 to be negatively charge and from the laws of attraction ; Like charges repel and unlike charges attract. the correct option is d.

If the mass of block B is 2kg, the gravitational force exerted on block B is most nearly which of the following?
Katen [24]

Answer:

20 N.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of block B (m) = 2 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Gravitational force (F) =..?

Force is simply defined as the product of mass and acceleration i.e

Force = mass (m) × acceleration (a)

F = ma

Thus, we can say that the gravitational force on block B will be the product of the mass of block B and acceleration due to gravity i.e

Gravitational force (F) = mass of block B (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g)

F = mg

Mass of block B (m) = 2 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Gravitational force (F) =..?

F = mg

F = 2 × 10

F = 20 N

The, the gravitational force exerted on block B is 20 N
