Answer:

6.7*10^8 mi/hr

Explanation:

(3*10^8 m)/1s * (3600 s)/ 1 hr * (1 mi)/ 1609 m

6.7*10^8 mi/hr

1. The current in a wire is 0.72A. Calculate the charge that passes through the wire in; a. 4 s b. 60 s c. 180 s d. 7 s e. 0.5 s
Vlad [161]
Let current be I, charge be Q and time be t.
Here we are provided with,
I = 0.72A
t = 4s / 60s / 180s / 7s / 0.5s
We know,
I = Q/t

Case I
---------
When, t = 4s
0.72 = Q/4
Q = 0.72 * 4 = 2.88C

Case II
----------
When, t = 60s
0.72 = Q/60
Q = 0.72 * 60 = 43.2C

Case III
-----------
When, t = 180s
0.72 = Q/180
Q = 0.72 * 180 = 129.6C

Case IV
-----------
When, t = 7s
0.72 = Q/7
Q = 0.72 * 7 = 5.04C

Case V
----------
When, t = 0.5s
0.72 = Q/0.5
Q = 0.72 * 0.5 = 0.36C

Jack and Jill are on two different floors of their high rise office building and looking out of their respective windows. Jack s
Maru [420]

Answer:

a) speed when Jack sees the pot : 12.92 meters per second

b) height difference 163.115 meters

Explanation:

First to calculate te initial speed we use the acceleration formula:

a= v1-v0/t

Acceleration being gravity's acceleration (9.8 m/s^2)

v1 being the speed when Jill sees the pot

v0 when Jack sees it

and t the time between

Solving for v0 it would be

v1 - a*t = v0

replacing

58 m/s -  9.8 m/s^2 *4.6 s = v0 = 12.92 m/s

For the second question we use the position formula setting y0 and t0 as the position and time when jack sees the pot. (and setting the positive axis downward I.E. one meter below jack would be 1m not -1m)

The formula is

y0 + v0*t + 1/2 g *t^2 = yt

replacing

0m + 12.92m/s* 4.6 s + 1/2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * (4.6 s)^2 = 163.115 m

Answer: i think c

Explanation:QA: “What is ordinary glass made of ?”

Glass is mostly silica, or silicon dioxide, present as quartz in many types of sand. Pure silica forms a highly transparent glass, but has a very high melting or softening temperature, around 1700°C. Even at such high temperatures it is highly viscous and difficult to work. Its use is largely confined to applications requiring high transparency to ultra-violet and infra-red radiation, stability at elevated temperatures or low thermal expansion coefficient.

“Ordinary glass” windows and drinking vessels are typically made from soda-lime glass, containing silica with around 25% sodium, calcium and other oxides, which together reduce the softening temperature to roughly 500–600°C

Positive ions have blank protons than electrons
grandymaker [24]
Postitive ions have more protons than electrons, because protons are positively charged. Electrons have a negative charge, so if there were less protons than electrons the job would be negative. If there were the same amount of both, then the positive and negative charges balance each other out, making a neutral charge.

A cell phone weighing 80 grams is flying through the air at 15 m/s. What is its kinetic energy
Contact [7]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the cell phone is 9J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of motion.

The kinetic energy is expressed as

KE= 1/2m(v)²

Given data

Mass of cell phone m= 80g--to kg=80/1000= 0.08kg

Velocity of cell phone v= 15m/s

Substituting our given data we have

KE= 1/2*0.08(15)²

KE= (0.08*225)/2

KE=18/2

KE= 9J
