Water drips from the nozzle of a shower onto the floor 190 cm below. The drops fall at regular (equal) intervals of time, the fi
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Second drop: 1.04 m

First drop: 1.66 m

Explanation:

Assuming the droplets are not affected by aerodynamic drag.

They are in free fall, affected only by gravity.

I set a frame of reference with the origin at the nozzle and the positive X axis pointing down.

We can use the equation for position under constant acceleration.

X(t) = x0 + v0 * t + 1/2 * a *t^2

x0 = 0

a = 9.81 m/s^2

v0 = 0

Then:

X(t) = 4.9 * t^2

The drop will hit the floor when X(t) = 1.9

1.9 = 4.9 * t^2

t^2 = 1.9 / 4.9

t = \sqrt{0.388} = 0.62 s

That is the moment when the 4th drop begins falling.

Assuming they fall at constant interval,

Δt = 0.62 / 3 = 0.2 s (approximately)

The second drop will be at:

X2(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 1*0.2)^2 = 0.86 m

And the third at:

X3(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 2*0.2)^2 = 0.24 m

The positions are:

1.9 - 0.86 = 1.04 m

1.9 - 0.24 = 1.66 m

above the floor

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Hey there!

Biotic factors are living organisms. This includes plants, animals, and bacteria. Climate, water, and natural disasters are abiotic factors, which means they are nonliving factors that affect the environment. Disease is caused by bacteria, which is a biotic factor.

Therefore, your answer is B) Disease.

Hope this helps!

An orbiting satellite can become charged by the photoelectric effect when sunlight ejects electrons from its outer surface. Sate
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm

Explanation:

Given data

Φ = 5.32 eV

to find out

the longest wavelength

solution

we know that

hf = k(maximum) +Ф   ...............1

here we consider k(maximum ) will be zero because photon wavelength max when low photon energy

so hf = 0

and hc/ λ = +Ф

so λ = hc/Ф  ................2

now put value hc = 1240 ev nm and Φ = 5.32 eV

so hc = 1240 / 5.32

hc = 233 nm

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm
