Select the correct answer. A ball is thrown straight down from the top of a building at a velocity of 16 ft/s. The building is 4

80 feet tall, and the acceleration due to gravity is 32 ft/s2. This problem can be represented using the following equation. How much time will the ball take to reach the ground

Answer:

The ball takes 5s to reach the ground

Explanation:

in order to solve this problem we use the kinematics equation with gravity as acceleration:

h=v_0t+1/2*gt^2

we replace the values

0=1/2*32t^2+16t-480

We solve this quadratic equation:

t=5s

t=-6s   (this solution has not physical sense)

What is terminal velocity and how is it reached?
Ber [7]
He thermal velocity or thermal speed is a typical velocity of the thermal motion of particles which make up a gas, liquid, etc. Thus, indirectly, thermal velocity is a measure of temperature. Technically speaking it is a measure of the width of the peak in the Maxwell–Boltzmann particle velocity distribution.

Assume that the amplifiers on the stage operate at a combined power of 5,000 Watts, and that 80% of this is converted to sound.
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

0.04

Explanation:

Fraction of power converted to sound = 80% = 0.08

Fraction incident upon each eardrum onstage = 0.08/2 = 0.04

niobium metal becomes a superconductor when cooled below 9 k. its superconductivity is destroyed when the surface magnetic field
Furkat [3]

Niobium wire with a 2.60 mm diameter has a maximum current capacity of 500 A while still remaining superconducting.

<h3>Describe the present.</h3>

Current is the rate at which charge passes from one point on a circuit to another. In a circuit, a significant current flows when several coulombs or charge pass over the cross section of a wire. When the charge carriers are firmly packed inside the wire, high currents can be generated at low speeds.

<h3>What do current and electron actually mean?</h3>

Electron movement is referred to as electron current. The positive terminal receives electrons that are released by the negative terminal. Traditional current, usually referred to as just current, exhibits behavior consistent with positive charge carriers being the source of current flow. Regular current is received at the positive end and then flows to a negative terminal.

If a water wave completes one cycle in 2 seconds, what is
Novay_Z [31]

The period of a wave is the time it takes the wave to complete one cycle (at a fixed location).

So if a wave completes one cycle in <em>2 seconds</em>, then that is its period.
