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)

The lightning bolt discharge lasts one millisecond. What is the average current flowing from the cloud to ground? Answer in unit
denpristay [2]

Answer:

25100A

Explanation:

t= 1ms = 0.001s

q = 25.1C

From the relationship between charge and current , the charge is equal to the product of current and time

q = i×t

Where q = charge

i = current

t = time

i = q/t = 25.1/0.001

i = 25100A.

The electric field strength E is measured as:
soldi70 [24.7K]
The correct answer is
<span>force per unit charge.

In fact, the electric field strength is defined as the electric force per unit charge experienced by a positive test charge located in the electric field. In formula:
</span>E= \frac{F}{q}
where
E is the electric field strength
F is the electric force experienced by the charge
q is the positive test charge.
