Use kinematic equations to solve:

1) yf = yo + vo*t + 1/2at²

yf = final height
yo = initial height
vo = initial velocity
a = acceleration
t = time

yf - yo = vo*t + 1/2at²

yf - yo = h

vo = 0

Thus,

h = 1/2at²

h = 1/2(9.8)(12)² = 705.6 m

2) vf = vo + at

vo = 0

Thus,

vf = at

vf = (9.8)(12) = 117.6 m/s

A gymnast does a one-arm handstand. The humerus, which is the upper arm bone between the elbow and the shoulder joint, may be ap

Answer:

                  = 5.241 \times 10^{-5} m

Explanation:

Given:

 Length of cylinder is, L = 0.27 m

Outer radius of cylinder is, r_out = 1.12×10^{-2} m

Inner radius of cylinder is, r_in = 3.9×10^{-3} m

Mass of person, m = 60 kg

 Young's modulus , Y = 9.4×10^9 N/m2

(a)

     Compressional strain of humerous is,

Strain = \frac{Stress}{Young's\ modulus}

     \frac{\Delta L}{L_0}   = \frac{\frac{F}{A}}{Y}

                  = \frac{(mg)}{\pi(r_out^2 - r_in^2  )Y}

                  = \frac{(60 kg)(9.8 m/s2 )}{(\pi)[( 1.12\times 10^{-2})^2 - (3.9\times 10^{-3} m)^2] (9.4\times 10^9 N/m2 )}[tex]                   [tex]= 1.80\times 10^{-4} m

(b)  Let assume that humerous is compressed by ΔL

       Since,   strain = ΔL/L0

      (1.80 \times 10^{-4} m) = ΔL / 0.29 m

     Thus,

           ΔL = (4.56 \times 10^{-4} m)(0.29 m)

                  = 5.241 \times 10^{-5} m

How does an impulse propagate down the axon
kolezko [41]

When action potentials reach the end of the axon, they stimulate opening of Ca2+ channels, causing a release of neurotransmitters to the post-synaptic cell. How does and impulse propagate down the axon? The stimulus causes a start of the action potential and it moves down the axon without the ions moving down

What is the significance of the discovery of exoplanets?
polet [3.4K]
For only through exploration of the unknown we have come as far as we are now.

Discoveries are what laid the foundation for the technology and all advancement of the society we have today. Similar to how we continue to voyage into the unknowns of this world to find resources to supply for our needs, studies through new materials, species we encounter will all benefit the most common problems we have such as energy resource, medical needs and cure for the incurable diseases. These explanetary exploration may be the next key which holds potential to solve these problems.

Since many wavelengths of light are measured in nanometers, it's useful to know that planck's constant (h) multiplied with the s
MrRa [10]

Answer:

E = h f      and since f = c / λ     we have E = h c / λ

Thus  λ = h c / E

Also, 1 ev = 1.6E-19 C

λ = 6.63E-34 * 3.0E8 / (1.6 * 1.6E-19)

λ = 6.63 * 3.0 / (1.6 * 1.6) * E-7

λ = 7.77E-7 = 777 nanometers

(B) is correct
