Answer:

8.9 m NorthEast

Explanation:

a² + b² = c²

8² + 4² = c²

64 + 16 = c²

80 = c²

c = √80

c ≈ 8.9 m NorthEast

Against the park ranger's advice, a visitor at a national park throws a stone horizontally off the edge of a 86 m high cliff and
Drupady [299]

The initial horizontal velocity of the rock, in m/s is 21.241 m/s.

<h3>What is projectile?</h3>

When an object is thrown at an angle from the horizontal direction, the object is said to be in projectile motion. The object which follows the projectile motion.

Time taken by the stone to reach the ground is

t = √2h/g

t = √(2x 86)/9.81

t = 4.19s


The horizontal velocity is

V(x)  = Horizontal distance traveled / Time taken t

Put the values, we get

V(x) = 89 m/4.19 s

V(x) = 21.241 m/s

Thus, the horizontal velocity is 21.241 m/s

What's the dielectric constant of ceramic?<br> A. 1,200<br> B. 900<br> C. 80<br> D. 7.500
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

7.5

Explanation:

The dielectric constant of ceramics is about 7.5.

The dielectric constant of a substance is the ratio of the electric permeability of a substance to the electric permeability of free space.

Dielectric constant gives a good overview about the ability of substance to store charges compared to another.

Most substances have their electric constant and they suggest the ease by which they can store electrical energy. This is very important in developing capacitors.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

q=6.22*10^-10C

Explanation:

Two large metal plates of area 0.88 m2 face each other, 4.8 cm apart, with equal charge magnitudes but opposite signs. The field magnitude E between them (neglect fringing) is 80 N/C. Find |q|

E=α/∈, electric field within the plate

α=q/A

A=area of the plate

∈=is the permittivity

substituting , we have

The field magnitude E between them (neglect fringing)

E=q/A∈

q=EA∈

q=0.88*80*8.84*10^-12

q=6.22*10^-10C

Measurements show that the enthalpy of a mixture of gaseous reactants decreases by during a certain chemical reaction, which is
snow_tiger [21]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Measurements show that the enthalpy of a mixture of gaseous reactants decreases by 338 kJ during a certain chemical reaction, which is carried out at a constant pressure. Furthermore, by carefully monitoring the volume change it is determined that 187 kJ of work is done on the mixture during the reaction. Calculate the change in energy of the gas mixture during the reaction. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic ?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    Change in enthalpy (\Delta H) = -338 kJ (as it is a decrease)

    Work done = 187 kJ,

    Change in energy (\Delta E) = ?

Now, according to the first law of thermodynamics the formula is as follows.

          \Delta H = \Delta E + P \Delta V

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

        \Delta H = \Delta E + P \Delta V

Also, we know that W = P \Delta V

so,           \Delta H = \Delta E + W      

              -338 kJ = \Delta E + 187

              \Delta E = -151 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that the change in energy of the gas mixture during the reaction is -151 kJ.
