In a projectile, the horizontal acceleration is zero. The velocity remains constant at all times. However, the <u>vertical acceleration</u> is -9.81m/s^2.

Hope this helps!

Newton's Law of Cooling states that the rate of cooling of an object is proportional to the temperature difference between the o
julsineya [31]

Answer:

1) k=-\frac{1}{46}\approx -0.02 

2) \textit{Limiting value} = 24

3) T(10)\approx \frac{494611944}{6436343}\approx 76.8

Explanation:

First of all note that  

T_s=24 is the surroundings temperature, the temperature of the room where the cup of coffee is. Then, the differential equation is:  

\frac{dT}{dt}=k(T-24)

Also, note that all units are in degrees celsius and minutes. Then, we don't have to convert units. Let's not write units explicitly from now on.  

Explanation  

1) We have that  

\textit{rate of cooling}=\frac{dT}{dt}=1,\quad T=70

at some point - the exact time at which this is true doesn't really play any role because the equation doesn't have t on the right hand side. Then, from the equation we get  

1=-(70-24)=46k\Rightarrow k=-\frac{1}{46}\approx -0.02

The minus comes from considering the temperature must decrease. With this value we can write the equation more explicitely:  

\frac{dT}{dt}=-\frac{1}{46}(T-24)

2) The coffee is cooling off as time goes by, and it won't get any cooler than 24 degrees celsius because that's the temperature of the room. Then, in the long run, the temperature of the coffee is 24 degrees celsius.  

3) Remember that Euler's method consists of using an initial exact measurement to predict what will happen in the future, approximately. There is a formula to make those predictions an it depends on the time step they gave us. Let's compute things first and then I tell you the equations we used.  

In this case we know that we start with a 90 degrees celsius cup of coffee, or, in terms of math,  

T(0)=90

Then, we can predict:  

T(2)\approx 90+2\left[-\frac{1}{46}(90-24)\right]=\frac{2004}{23}\approx 87.1

Let's use fractions so we don't lose accuracy from now. With this number we can make an approximation of the temperature after 2 more seconds:  

T(4)\approx \frac{2004}{23}+2\left[-\frac{1}{46}\left(\frac{2004}{23}-24\right)\right]=\frac{44640}{529}\approx 84.4

and then  

T(6)\approx \frac{44640}{529}+2\left[-\frac{1}{46}\left(\frac{44640}{529}-24\right)\right]=\frac{994776}{12167}\approx 81.8

and then  

T(8)\approx \frac{994776}{12167}+2\left[-\frac{1}{46}\left(\frac{994776}{12167}-24\right)\right]=\frac{22177080}{279841}\approx 79.2  

and finally, the number we wanted to find:

T(10)\approx \frac{22177080}{279841}+2\left[-\frac{1}{46}\left(\frac{22177080}{279841}-24\right)\right]=\frac{494611944}{6436343}\approx 76.8  

I hope you noticed the pattern to compute the next prediction:  

\textit{next prediction} = \textit{previous one (or exact value if it's the first step)}\\+ h\ast(\textit{right hand side of the differential equation at the previous one})

How is the L-section filter useful at both low and high frequencies?​
Gnom [1K]

Answer: High pass filters, and in particular LC high pass filters are used in many RF applications where they block the lower frequencies and allow through higher frequency signals. Typically LC filters are used for the higher radio frequencies where active filters are not so manageable, and inductors more appropriate.

Two resistors with resistance values of 4.5 Ω and 2.3 Ω are connected in series or parallel
kenny6666 [7]

Explanation:

Given that,

Two resistors 4.5 Ω and 2.3 Ω .

Potential difference = 30 V

When they are in series, the current through each resistor remains the same. First find the equivalent resistance.

R' = 4.5 + 2.3

= 6.8 Ω

Current,

I=\dfrac{V}{R'}\\\\I=\dfrac{30}{6.8}\\\\=4.41\ A

So, the current through both lightbulb is the same i.e. 4.41 A.

When they are in parallel, the current divides.

Current flowing in 4.5 resistor,

I_1=\dfrac{V}{R_1}\\\\=\dfrac{30}{4.5}\\\\I_1=6.7\ A

Current flowing in 2.3 ohm resistor,

I_2=\dfrac{V}{R_2}\\\\=\dfrac{30}{2.3}\\\\I_2=13.04

In parallel combination, are brighter than bulbs in series.
