The distance covered by an object accelerating from rest is

D = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)² .

In this particular case, 'acceleration' is 9.8 m/s² ... due to gravity.

D = (1/2) · (9.8 m/s²) · (1.67 s)²

D = (4.9 m/s²) · (2.789 s²)

D =  13.67 meters

Which example has the least kinetic energy
Stells [14]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Let’s calculate the kinetic energy for all of the choices.

a. (1/2)(100)(100)^2 = 50(10000)=500,000

b. (1/2)(100)(1)^2 = 50

c. (1/2)(10)(100)^2 = 5(10000) = 50,000

d. (1/2)(1)(1)^2 = 0.5

We can see that (d) has the least kinetic energy.

Given that an electric field of 3×106V/m3×106V/m is required to produce an electrical spark within a volume of air, estimate the
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Length, l = 33.4 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Electrical field, E=3\times 10^6\ V/m

Let the electrical potential is, V=10^8\ V

We need to find the length of a thundercloud lightning bolt. The relation between electric field and the electric potential is given by :

V=E\times d\\\\d=\dfrac{V}{E}\\\\d=\dfrac{10^8}{3\times 10^6}\\\\d=33.4\ m

So, the length of a thundercloud lightning bolt is 33.4 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Three point charges lie in a straight line along the y-axis. a charge of q1 = -9.10 µc is at y = 6.30 m, and a charge of q2 = -7
inysia [295]

Answer:

 Electric field E = kQ/r^2  

Distance between charges = 6.30 - (-4.40) = 10.70m  

Say the neutral point, P, is a distance d from q1. This means it is a distance (10.70 - d) from q2.  

Field from q1 at P = k(-9.50x^10^-6) / d^2  

Field from q2 at P = k(-8.40x^10^-6) / (10.70-d)^2  

These fields are in opposite directions and are equal magnitudes if the resultant field = 0  

k(-9.50x^10^-6) / d^2 = k(-8.40x^10^-6) / (10.70-d)^2  

9.50 / d^2 =8.40 / (10.70-d)^2  

d^2 / (10.70-d)^2 = 9.50/8.40 = 1.131  

d/(10.70-d) = sqrt(1.1331) = 1.063  

d = 1.063 ((10.70-d)  

= 10.63 - 1.063d  

2.063d = 10.63  

d = 5.15m  

The y coordinate where field is zero is 6.30 - 5.15 = 1.15m

How much heat is needed to boil 120 kg of water ?
nekit [7.7K]
Q = mc<span>∆t, where:
q = energy flow
m = mass, 120 000 g
c = specific heat capacity, 4.81 J/gC
</span><span>∆t = change in temperature, ~75 (100 - 25, which is room temperature)

Substituting in the values, we get:
q = 120000 x 4.81 x 75 = 43290000 Joules = 43.29 MJ

Hope I helped!! xx
