Answer:

 v = 42.92 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

initial speed of the ball, v = 11 m/s

time taken to hit the ground = 5.5 m/s

velocity of the ball just before it hit the ground, v = ?

time taken by the ball to reach the maximum height

using equation of motion

 v = u + at

final velocity = 0 m/s  

 0 = 11 - 9.8 t

  t = 1.12 s.

time taken by the ball to reach the water from the maximum height

 t' - 5.5 -1.12 = 4.38 s

using equation of motion for the calculation of speed just before it hit the water.

 v  = u + a t

 v = 0 + 9.8 x 4.38

 v = 42.92 m/s

Velocity of the ball just before it reaches the water is equal to v = 42.92 m/s

what volume of alcohol will have the same mass as 4.2m^3 of petrol? (density of alcohol 0.4kg/m^3 and petrol is 0.3kg/m^3)​
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

3.15m³

Explanation:

To solve this problem, let us first find the mass of the petrol from the given dimension.

       Mass  = density x volume

Volume of petrol  = 4.2m³

Density of petrol  = 0.3kgm⁻³  

       Mass of petrol  = 4.2 x 0.3  = 1.26kg

So;

      We can now find the volume of the alcohol

 Volume of alcohol = \frac{mass}{density}  

Mass of alcohol  = 1.26kg

Density of alcohol  = 0.4kgm⁻³  

  Volume of alcohol  = \frac{1.26}{0.4}   = 3.15m³

What is the average power consumption in watts of an appliance that uses 5.00 kWh of energy per day? How many joules of energy d
denpristay [2]

Answer:

(A)  power  = 0.208 kW = 208 watts

(B)  energy = 6.6 x 10^{9} joules

Explanation:

energy consumed per day = 5 kWh

(a) find the power consumed in a day

         1 day = 24 hours

        power = \frac{energy}{time}

        power = \frac{5}{24}

          power  = 0.208 kW = 208 watts

         

(b) find the energy consumed in a year

    assuming it is not a leap year and number of days = 365 days

     1 year = 365 x 24 x 60 x 60 = 31,536,000 seconds

            energy = power x time

            energy = 208 x 31,536,000

            energy = 6.6 x 10^{9} joules
