The time after being ejected is the boulder moving at a speed 20.7 m/s upward is 2.0204 s.

<h3>What is the time after being ejected is the boulder moving at a speed 20.7 m/s upward?</h3>

The motion of the boulder is a uniformly accelerated motion, with constant acceleration

a = g = -9.8 $$$m / s^2$

downward (acceleration due to gravity).

By using Suvat equation:

v = u + at

where: v is the velocity at time t

u = 40.0 m/s is the initial velocity

a = g = -9.8 $$$m/s^2$ is the acceleration

To find the time t at which the velocity is v = 20.7 m/s

Therefore,

$$t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{20.7-40}{-9.8}=2.0204 \mathrm{~s}$

The time after being ejected is the boulder moving at a speed 20.7 m/s upward is 2.0204 s.

The complete question is:

A large boulder is ejected vertically upward from a volcano with an initial speed of 40.0 m/s. Ignore air resistance. At what time after being ejected is the boulder moving at 20.7 m/s upward?

How much more light does an 8-meter telescope gather than a 2-meter telescope? view available hint(s)?

trasher [3.6K]

The light gathering of a telescope goes as the area of the telescope, therefore as the square of the aperture:
$P= \frac{D_1^2}{D_2^2}$
where D is the aperture of the telescope.
Therefore, using D1=8 m and D2=2 m, we find
$P= \frac{8^2}{2^2}=16$
So, the larger telescope will collect 16 times more light than the smaller one.

To understand the relationships between the parameters that characterize a wave. It is of fundamental importance in many areas o

Answer:

1) c.

2) a.)

Explanation:

At any wave, if its waveform repeats itself every time interval T, it is said that the wave is periodic, with a period T, which is the time needed to complete an entire cycle. The other options refer at the way in the waves propagates (longitudinal or transversal) and to the type of waveform (sinusoidal), so the right answer is c).

At any wave that propagates at a constant speed, there exists a fixed relationship between the velocity v, the frequency f and the wavelength λ, as follows:

$v = \lambda * f (1)$
