For a body falling freely from rest​ (disregarding air​ resistance), the distance the body falls varies directly as the square o

f the time. If an object is dropped from the top of a tower 490 ft high and hits the ground in 7 ​sec, how far did it fall in the first 5 ​sec?

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The object would fall 57.625 m in the first 5 seconds

Explanation:

To solve the question, we note that

the height of fall = 490 ft = ‪149.352‬ m

Time to touch the ground = 7 seconds

We are required to find out how far the object falls in the first 5 seconds

We apply the relation

S = u·t + 0.5×g·t ² = We then have

‪149.352‬ = U×7+0.5*9.81*49 From where u = -13 m/s

Therefore to find how far it falls in the first 5 seconds, we have

-13*5 + 0.5*9.81*25 = 57.625 m

What causes an electrical current in a wire? Question 1 options: Electric fields cause atoms to move in a wire Electrons build u
Mademuasel [1]

The cause of electric current in a wire is that there is electron flow due to electrical attraction and repulsion.

What is Electric current?

The rate of flow of electric charge through a point is known as electric current. The electric current is nothing but the flow of electrons in general.

Consider a space, when electrons of charge (e) is flowing through the space in a given time interval t. Then,

I = e/t

here,

I is the electric current.

Moreover, there is a flow of electrons in a wire due to a potential difference existing at the circuit. Due to that, electrons always flow from high electric potential to low electric potential.

Thus, we can conclude that the cause of electric current in a wire is that there is electron flow due to electrical attraction and repulsion.

Boyles law<br> squeezing a balloon is one way to burst it. Why? ...?
KiRa [710]
According to Boyle's Law,  volume is inversely proportional to pressure. It means if the volume of a gas goes up the pressure goes down and if the volume of the gas goes up the pressure goes down. When the pressure of air inside the inflated balloon is more than the atmospheric pressure outside the balloon. And also when the density inside is greater than the density outside. The molecules inside the balloon move and bang around the inner walls which produces force, which provides the pressure of an enclosed air.
