Answer:

80 meters high

Explanation:

The velocity of the balloon would be g*t (I won't calculate, but will us this later)

We know that the kinetic energy at the bottom equals the potential at the top.

KE = PE

1/2 * m * v^2 = m * g * h

1/2 * m * (g * t)^2 = m * g * h (substitution)

1/2 * m * g^2 * t^2 = m * g * h

1/2 * g * t^2 = h (simplification by dividing the commons between both sides)

h = 1/2 * 9.81 * 4^2

h = 78.48 m (roughly 80 m)

A car traveling at a speed of 13 meters per second accelerates uniformly to a speed of 25 meters per second in 5.0 seconds. 11-
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

a=2.4\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a car, u = 13 m/s

Final speed of a car, v = 25 m/s

Time, t = 5 s

We need to find the acceleration of the car during this 5.0 second time interval. Let a is the acceleration. It can be calculated as :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{25-13}{5}\\\\=2.4\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is 2.4\ m/s^2.

A small lead ball, attached to a 1.10-m rope, is being whirled in a circle that lies in the vertical plane. The ball is whirled
hjlf

Answer:

1.84 m

Explanation:

For the small lead ball to be balanced at the tip of the vertical circle just before it is released, the reaction force , N equal the weight of the lead ball W + the centripetal force, F. This normal reaction ,N also equals the tension T in the string.

So, T = mg + mrω² = ma where m = mass of small lead ball, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², r = length of rope = 1.10 m and ω = angular speed of lead ball = 3 rev/s = 3 × 2π rad/s = 6π rad/s = 18.85 rad/s and a = acceleration of normal force. So,

a = g + rω²

= 9.8 m/s² + 1.10 m × (18.85 rad/s)²

= 9.8 m/s² + 390.85 m/s²

= 400.65 m/s²

Now, using v² = u² + 2a(h₂ - h₁)  where u = initial velocity of ball = rω = 1.10 m × 18.85 rad/s = 20.74 m/s, v = final velocity of ball at maximum height = 0 m/s (since the ball is stationary at maximum height), a = acceleration of small lead ball = -400.65 m/s² (negative since it is in the downward direction of the tension), h₁ = initial position of lead ball above the ground = 1.3 m and h₂ = final position of lead ball above the ground = unknown.

v² = u² + 2a(h₂ - h₁)

So, v² - u² = 2a(h₂ - h₁)

h₂ - h₁ =  (v² - u²)/2a

h₂ =  h₁ + (v² - u²)/2a

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

h₂ =  1.3 m + ((0 m/s)² - (20.74 m/s)²)/2(-400.65 m/s²)

h₂ =  1.3 m + [-430.15 (m/s)²]/-801.3 m/s²

h₂ =  1.3 m + 0.54 m

h₂ =  1.84 m

How long can you keep string cheese in the fridge?
allsm [11]
Cheese attributes its sour taste because of its lactic acid content. However, this should not be an indication to whether the cheese is spoiling already. We can tell its expiry date through the manufacturing details of the product. The product should be good to consume before the manufacturing expiry date. Every package must include expiry date in order to inform the consumer about the range of its consumability attributes. In the case where molds are present on the cheese already, cheese on some parts may not be edible already. Molds are due to the oxidation of glucose through the action of specific bacteria.
