A dropped object only fall 5 meters down after 1 second of freefall, yet achieve a speed of 10m/s due to acceleration due to gravity.

s = vt - 1 / 2 at²

s = Displacement

v = Final velocity

t = Time

a = Acceleration

s = 5 m

t = 1 s

a = 10 m / s²

5 = ( v * 1 ) - ( 1 / 2 * 10 * 1 * 1 )

5 = v - 5

v = 10 m / s

The equation used to solve the given problem is an equation of motion. In a free fall motion, usually air resistance is not considered for easier calculation. If air resistance is considered acceleration cannot be constant throughout the entire motion.

Therefore, a dropped object only fall 5 meters down after 1 second of freefall, yet achieve a speed of 10m/s due to acceleration due to gravity.

f a single circular loop of wire carries a current of 45 A and produces a magnetic field at its center with a magnitude of 1.50
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Radius of the loop is 0.18 m or 18 cm

Explanation:

Given :

Current flowing through the wire, I = 45 A

Magnetic field at the center of the wire, B = 1.50 x 10⁻⁴ T

Number of turns in circular wire, N = 1

Consider R be the radius of the circular wire.

The magnetic field at the center of the current carrying circular wire is determine by the relation:

B=\frac{N\mu_{0} I}{2R}

Here μ₀ is vacuum permeability constant and its value is 4π x 10⁻⁷ Tm/A.

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

1.50\times10^{-4} =\frac{4\pi \times10^{-7}\times45 }{2R}

R = 0.18 m

When a parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery: a ___ is stored on one plate, and a ____ is stored on the other.
Ronch [10]

Answer:

a.) negative charge, positive charge

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we will need to see the image that can be seen in the attached image.

The point a has a higher potential than point B of the resistance R as the current flows from a to b.

The positive plate of capacitor b has higher potential than the negative plate c.

Once the capacitor has been charged to the nominal value, it will have the same potential of the battery, its terminals will open interrupting the flow of current. But keeping the potential or voltage differential through its points. This will allow the capacitor to work as a battery while discharging.

Dancers experience large forces associated with the jumps they make. For example, when a dancer lands after a vertical jump, the
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The head decelerates from 4 m /s to zero in .2 sec so deceleration = 4 - 0 / .2

= 20 m/s²

If F be the average force acting on head

F - mg = ma

F = m ( g + a )

= 65 ( 9.8 + 20 )

= 1937 N .

This force will be uniformly acting on head in upward direction . So during first half and second half , deceleration is same hence force F will also be same .

Can y'all please help me with this question​
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

D) Magma with low viscosity

Explanation:

Pressure is needed for a volcanic eruption to occur. When the viscosity or thickness of the magma is low or absent, only a limited amount of pressure can build within the magma chamber, resulting in a less than spectacular eruption.
