Answer:

h = 23.716 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The time taken by the stone to hit the water is, t = 2.2 s

Height of the bridge above the ground, h = ?

The distance that the body will fall through the time is given by the formula

S = 1/2 gt² m

Where,

g - acceleration due to gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation

S = 1/2 x 9.8 m/s² x (2.2 s)²

= 23.716 m

Therefore, the height of the bridge from the surface of the water is h = 23.716 m

A Carnot engine whose high-temperature reservoir is at 464 K has an efficiency of 25.0%. By how much should the temperature of t

nexus9112 [7]

Answer

given,

high temperature reservoir (T_c)= 464 K

efficiency of reservoir (ε)= 25 %

temperature to decrease = ?

increase in efficiency = 42 %

now, using equation

$\epsilon = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{T_H}$

$0.25 = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{464}$

$T_C= (1 - 0.25) \times 464$

$T_C= 0.75 \times 464$

T_C = 348 K

now,

if the efficiency is equal to 42$ = 0.42

$T_C= (1 - 0.42) \times 464$

$T_C= 0.58 \times 464$

$T_C= 269.12\ K$

A converging lens of focal length 20 cm is placed in contact with, and to the left of, a diverging lens of focal length 30 cm. I

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Magnification will be equal to 3

Explanation:

We have given focal length of the converging lens $F_1=20cm$

Focal length of the diverging lens $F_2=30cm$

Object is placed 40 cm to the length of the converging lens d = 40 cm

Combination of the focal length will be equal to

$\frac{1}{F}=\frac{1}{F_1}+\frac{1}{F_2}$

$\frac{1}{F}=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{-30}=\frac{1}{20}-\frac{1}{30}=\frac{1}{60}$

F = 60 cm

So combination of the focal length will be 60 cm

Magnification is given by

$M=\frac{F}{F-d}=\frac{60}{60-40}=3$

So magnification will be equal to 3

In an Atwood's machine, one block has a mass of 602.0 g, and the other a mass of 717.0 g. The pulley, which is mounted in horizo

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The acceleration of the both masses is 0.0244 m/s².

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of one block = 602.0 g

Mass of other block = 717.0 g

Radius = 1.70 cm

Height = 60.6 cm

Time = 7.00 s

Suppose we find the magnitude of the acceleration of the 602.0-g block

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Where, s = distance

t = time

a = acceleration

Put the value into the formula

$60.0\times10^{-2}=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times a\times(7.00)^2$

$a=\dfrac{60.0\times10^{-2}\times2}{(7.00)^2}$

$a=0.0244\ m/s^2$

Hence, The acceleration of the both masses is 0.0244 m/s².
