Answer:

t = 2 s

Explanation:

In order to find the time taken by the stone to fall from the top of the building to the ground we can use 2nd equation of motion. 2nd equation of motion is as follows:

s = Vit + (0.5)gt²

where,

t = time = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 20 m/s

s = height of building = 60 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

60 m = (20 m/s)t + (0.5)(9.8 m/s²)t²

4.9t² + 20t - 60 = 0

solving this quadratic equation we get:

t = -6.1 s   (OR)   t = 2 s

Since, the time cannot be negative in magnitude.

Therefore,

<u>t = 2 s</u>

What is the frequency of sound waves whose wavelength is 0.25 m on a day when the air temperature is 25 degree Celsius? Group of
Dvinal [7]

Answer:1384 Hz

Explanation:

Given

wavelength(\lambda )=0.25 m

Temperature T=25^{\circ}

at T=25^{\circ} velocity of sound is 346 m/s

and we know

velocity=frequency\times \lambda

v=f\times \lambda

346=f\times 0.25

f=1384 Hz

What is the electrical force between q2 and q3? Recall that k = 8. 99 × 109 N•meters squared over Coulombs squared. 1. 0 × 1011
nlexa [21]

Force on the particle is defined as the application of the force field of one particle on another particle. the electrical force between q₁ and q₃ will be –1. 1 × 10¹¹ N.

<h3>What is electric force?</h3>

Force on the particle is defined as the application of the force field of one particle on another particle. It is a type of virtual force.

The electric force in the second case will be the same as in the first case. Therefore the force on the particle will be the same.

\rm F= K\frac{q_2q_3}{r^2}

\rm F= 9\times 10^9 \times \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-13}\times 1.6\times10^{-13}}{(0.5)^2}

\rm F=  - 1. 1 \times 10^{11 }N

Hence the electrical force between q₁ and q₃ will be –1. 1 × 10¹¹ N.

A negative charge is at rest at the origin of an axis system. Location x is at coordinate point (2m,3m) while location y is at (
Sergeu [11.5K]
The magnitude of the E-field decreases as the square of the distance from the charge, just like gravity.

Location ' x ' is  √(2² + 3²) = √13 m  from the charge.

Location ' y ' is √ [ (-3)² + (-2)² ] = √13 m from the charge.

The magnitude of the E-field is the same at both locations.

The direction is also the same at both locations ... it points toward the origin.
