A ball is tossed into the air from height of 8 feet with an initial velocity of 8 feet per second. find the time r(in seconds) i

t takes for the object to reach the ground by solving the equation -16t + 8t + 8 = 0 you trimmed a large strip of wallpaper from a scrap to fit into the corner of a wall you are wallpapering. you trimmed 15 inches from the length

For this case we have the following equation:
 -16t + 8t + 8 = 0
 The first thing we must do is rewrite the equation correctly.
 We have then:
 -16t ^ 2 + 8t + 8 = 0
 Solving the polynomial we have:
 t1 = -1/2
 t2 = 1
 We discard the negative root because we want to find the time.
 Answer:
 it takes for the object to reach the ground about:
 t = 1 second

If you rub a balloon on a sweater, which will have more electrons?
Musya8 [376]
When you rub a balloon on a sweater, for example, some electrons come off and end up on the balloon. The fibers have lost electrons giving them a positive charge. The rubber gained electrons giving it a negative charge.

A ball starts from rest and rolls down a hill at a constant acceleration of 5 m/s2. If it travels for 8 m how fast is it going i
makkiz [27]

Hi there!

We can use the following kinematic equation:

v_f^2 = v_i^2 + 2ad

vf = final velocity (? m/s)
vi = intial velocity (0 m/s)

a = acceleration (5 m/s²)

d = displacement (8 m)

Plug in the givens and solve.

v_f^2 = 0 + 2(5)(8)\\\\v_f = \sqrt{80} = \boxed{8.944 \frac{m}{s}}

Without using a micrometer screw gauge, how do I find the average diameter of a long piece of thin wire using a metre rule and a
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Wind the long piece of thin wire around the uniform glass rod multiple times, find the length of the total diameters using the metre ruler, and divide by the number of times you wound it around the rod.

Explanation:

Since the diameter of one long piece of thin wire is too thin to be measured by a metre ruler, you can wind it multiple times and push it side by side to get a length you can measure.

For example, if you wound it around 20 times and the total length of 20 diameters of the wire side-by-side is 2.0 cm, one winding, which is the diameter would be 2.0cm ÷ 20 = 0.10cm or 1mm.
