A hot-air balloon is descending at a rate of 2.3 m/s when a pas- senger drops a camera. If the camera is 41 m above the ground w

hen it is dropped, (a) how much time does it take for the cam- era to reach the ground, and (b) what is its velocity just before it lands? Let upward be the positive direction for this problem.

Answer:

a) time taken = 2.66 s

b) v = 28.34

Explanation:

given,

rate of descending = 2.3 m/s

height of camera above ground = 41 m              

using equation of motion                      

h = u t + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2              

41 =2.3t + \dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2

4.9 t² + 2.3 t - 41 =0                      

t = 2.66 ,-3.13                    

time taken = 2.66 s

b) v² = u² + 2 g h

v² = 0 + 2× 9.8 × 41

v = 28.34

How can you make the moon go around in a bigger circle
zlopas [31]

You would have to give it more mechanical energy.

Like, strap a bunch of powerful rockets to one side of the moon, with all of them pointing in the direction that the moon is already moving in its orbit.  Then blast away.

NOTE:  There aren't enough rockets or rocket fuel on Earth to make a difference, even if you used ALL of them.  The mass of the moon is about

<em>73,476,730,900,000,000,000,000 kilograms</em>

(rounded to the nearest hundred trillion kilograms.)

That's a lot.

Explain the following behaviour of molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes but mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narr
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

The capillarity of water molecules is different from the mercury molecules.

What is capillarity ?

This is the tendency of a liquid substance to rise in a capillary tube.

Molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes because of the force of adhesion between the water molecules and the tube molecules is greater than the force of cohesion between the water molecules. This helps water to wet the tube and rise. While mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narrow tubes to level below the outside surface because the force of cohesion between the mercury molecules is greater than the force of adhesion between the mercury molecules and the tube molecules. Mercury does not wet.
