Answer:

4.4 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

a = -5.5 m/s²

v₀ = 0 m/s

y₀ = 53 m

y = 0 m

Find: t

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

0 = 53 + 0 + ½ (-5.5) t²

0 = 53 − 2.75 t²

t = 4.39

Rounded to two significant figures, it takes 4.4 seconds for the object to land.

(b) During one day, 250 kg of water is pumped through
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: The energy incident on the solar panel during that day is 9.24 \times 10^{7} J.

Explanation:

Given: Mass = 250 kg

Initial temperature = 16^{o}C

Final temperature = 38^{o}C

Specific heat capacity = 4200 J/kg^{o}C

Formula used to calculate the energy is as follows.

q = m \times C \times (T_{2} - T_{1})

where,

q = heat energy

m = mass of substance

C = specific heat capacity

T_{1} = initial temperature

T_{2} = final temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

q = 250 kg \times 4200 J/kg^{o}C \times (38 - 16)^{o}C\\= 250 kg \times 4200 J/kg^{o}C \times 22^{o}C

As it is given that water absorbs 25% of the energy incident on the solar panel. Hence, energy incident on the solar panel can be calculated as follows.

\frac{25}{100} \times q = 250 kg \times 4200 J/kg^{o}C \times 22^{o}C\\q = 9.24 \times 10^{7} J

Thus, we can conclude that the energy incident on the solar panel during that day is 9.24 \times 10^{7} J.

- A thin film of oil * (n = 1.45) on a puddle of water, producing different colors. What is the minimum thickness of a place whe
Darya [45]

Answer:

There will be a phase change at the first interface and no phase change at the second interface:

If the film is 1/4 wavelength thick this restriction will hold

The wavelength of the light in oil is 545 nm / 1.45 = 376 nm

376 nm / 4 = 94 nm

"D" is correct

How can u tell matched forces act on objects?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,

then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of

these things to happen.

Once in a while, there may be a group of forces (two or more) acting on

an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced".  When

that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed

is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line.  In that case, it's not

possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it

What is the frequency of an ocean wave that is traveling at a speed of 45 m/s if it has a wavelength of 3 meters.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 15 Hz      

Explanation:

We have,

Speed of an ocean wave is 45 m/s

Wavelength of a wave is 3 m

It is required to find the frequency of an ocean wave.

Speed of a wave, v=f\lambda, f = frequency of ocean wave

f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{45}{3}\\\\f=15\ Hz

So, the frequency of an ocean wave is 15 Hz.
