Answer:

The height of the cliff is found to be 176.4 m

Explanation:

Since, the body is being dropped from a certain height and reaches the ground in some time. Thus, we can apply the equations of motion (modified for vertical motion) in this case, due to constant accelerated motion. We have the following data:

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 m/s²

Time to reach ground = t = 6 sec

Initial Velocity of the Rock = Vi = 0 m/s (Because, the rock will be at rest, initially)

Height of cliff = H = ?

Now, applying second equation of motion (modified for vertical motion), to the rock, between the top of the cliff and ground, we get:

H = Vi t + (1/2)gt²

Using values:

H = (0 m/s)(6 sec) + (1/2)(9.8 m/s²)(6 sec)²

<u>H = 176.4 m</u>

Using the balanced chemical equation below, calculate how many moles of ammonia would be produced when 9.1 moles of hydrogen gas
strojnjashka [21]

6.07 moles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of reacting hydrogen gas = 9.1 moles

Unknown:

Number of moles of ammonia produced = ?

Solution:

  Balanced chemical equation:

           N₂   +     3H₂    →      2NH₃

We should work from the known to the unknown specie. We known the number of moles of hydrogen gas reacting. We simply relate this to that of the ammonia.

 From the reaction:

   3 mole of hydrogen gas produced 2 mole of ammonia

     9.1 moles of the hydrogen gas will produce:  \frac{2 x 9.1}{3}

                                                                            = 6.07 moles

a ball is projected horizontally from the top the building.One second later another ball is projected horizontally from the same
stellarik [79]

The point In the motion that the balls will be closest to each other is as at the time as the second ball is thrown or lunched.

<h3>Will the first ball always be travelling faster than the second ball?</h3>

No, The two motions are said to be parallel to one another, so they that they both the same timing. Hence, the time it takes for both balls to be able to fall to the ground is said to be the same.

Yes, the both balls have the same speed because of  two balls are said to hit the ground, they are said to be done at the same height as well as the same energy and so they have the same speed.

Note that balls will take about 2 seconds to be able to hit the ground.

The horizontal projection velocity of the second ball can be changed so that the balls arrive at the ground at the same time and so the balls will be closest to one another if the second ball is thrown.

it took 3.5 hours for a train to travel the distance between two cities at a velocity of 120 miles per hour. How many miles lie
Art [367]

Given:

Time: 3.5 hrs

Velocity: 120 miles/hr

Now Distance=  Speed × Time

Now Velocity and speed have the same magnitude. Velocity being a vector quantity has a definite direction. Whereas speed is a scalar quantity,it indicates only the magnitude an doesn't define any direction.

Hence Distance = Velocity x time

Distance = 3.5 × 120 = 420 miles

Electrical power companies sell electrical energy
mixer [17]

Heat used by electric heater :

Q = m • c • ∆T

Q = (75 kg)(4200 J/kg°C)(43°C - 15°C)

Q = 8.82 × 10⁶ J

Cost of electrical energy :

Cost = (8.82 × 10⁶ J)/(3.6 × 10⁶ J) • ($ 0.15)

Cost = $ 0.3675
