The velocity of the boy when he hits the water at the bottom of the slide is 14 m/s.

<h3>Velocity of the boy at the bottom of the slide</h3>

The velocity of the boy when he hits the water at the bottom of the slide is calculated from the principle of conservation of energy.

K.E = P.E

¹/₂mv² = mgh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

where;

  • h is height of the boy
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 10)

v = 14 m/s.

Thus, the velocity of the boy when he hits the water at the bottom of the slide is 14 m/s.

Sunitha can type 1800 words in half an hour. What is her typing speed in words per minute?
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

60words/minute

Explanation:

If Sunitha can type 1800 words in half an hour, this can be expressed as;

1800 words = 30 minutes

To get her typing speed per minute, we will use the formula

Speed = Number of words/Time used

Typing speed = 1800/30

Typing speed = 60words/minute

Hence her typing speed in words per minute is 60words/minute

A large container contains a large amount of water. A hole is drilled on the wall of the container, at a vertical distance h = 0
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Velocity = 3.25[m/s]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved if we use the Bernoulli equation: In the attached image we can see the conditions of the water inside the container.

In point 1, (surface of the water) we have the atmospheric pressure and at point 2 the water is coming out also at atmospheric pressure, therefore this members in the Bernoulli equation could be cancelled.

The velocity in the point 1 is zero because we have this conditional statement "The water surface drops very slowly and its speed is approximately zero"

h2 is located at point 2 and it will be zero.

(P_{1} +\frac{v_{1}^{2} }{2g} +h_{1} )=(P_{2} +\frac{v_{2}^{2} }{2g} +h_{2} )\\P_{1} =P_{2} \\v_{1}=0\\h_{2} =0\\v_{2}=\sqrt{0.54*9.81*2}\\v_{2}=3.25[m/s]

Does anyone know what #2 and #3 is
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

He can figure out if they heat to the same temp with the thermometer.

Explanation:

They have different boiling points and heat up at different rates so they would have different temps at the same time

A 9.0-V battery (with nonzero resistance) and switch are connected in series across the primary coil of a transformer. The secon
qwelly [4]

Answer:

N₂ / N₁ = 13.3

Explanation:

A transformer is a system that induces a voltage in the secondary due to the variation of voltage in the primary, the ratio of voltages is determined by the expression

           ΔV₂ = N₂ /N₁  ΔV₁

where ΔV₂ and ΔV₁ are the voltage in the secondary and primary respectively and N is the number of windings on each side.

In this case, they indicate that the primary voltage is 9.0 V and the secondary voltage is 120 V

therefore we calculate the winding ratio

         ΔV₂ /ΔV₁ = N₂ / N₁

         N₂ / N₁ = 120/9

         N₂ / N₁ = 13.3

s good clarify that in transformers the voltage must be alternating (AC)

Your experiment should keep one thing constant and measure the other. So vary the temp and measure the pressure. You will get a set of data that relates pressure with temp.

So
P and T are directly proportional.
