Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Average velocity is the ratio of total displacement and time taken for that displacement:

$average \space\ velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}$

This means if displacement is zero, then average velocity will also be zero.

Displacement is zero when an object moves some distance in one direction, and then moves the same distance but in the opposite direction.

∴ As it is possible for displacement to be zero, it is also possible for average velocity to be zero.

A ball is projected horizontally from the top of a bertical building 25.0m above the ground level with an initial velocity of 8.

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Solution given:

height [H]=25m

initial velocity [u]=8.25m/s

g=9.8m/s

now;

a. How long is the ball in flight before striking the ground?

Time of flight =?

Now

Time of flight= $\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}$

substituting value

= $\sqrt{\frac{2*25}{9.8}}$
=2.26seconds

<h3>the ball is in flight before striking the ground for 2.26seconds.</h3>

b. How far from the building does the ball strike the ground?

Horizontal range=?

we have

Horizontal range=u* $\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}$

=8.25*2.26
=18.63m

<h3>The ball strikes 18.63m far from building. </h3>

In a pig caller can produce a sound intensity level of 107 dB. How many pig callers would be needed to generate an intensity lev

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

20 pig callers

Explanation:

Given that:

A pig caller produced intensity level of a sound = 107 dB

To find how many pig callers required to generate an intensity level of 120 dB;

we have:

120 dB - 107 dB = 13 dB

Taking the logarithm function;

$10 \ log \bigg(\dfrac{I}{I_o} \bigg) = 13 \ dB$

where;

$I_o$ = initial intensity

$log \bigg(\dfrac{I}{I_o} \bigg) = 1.3$

$\dfrac{I}{I_o}= 10^{1.3 }$

I = 19.95 $I_o$

I ≅ 20 pig callers
