Make the base of the building zero. Then the initial distance is 100m, final distance unknown x. Use gravity, time and initial velocity to solve for final distance.
x - 100 = (0)(5) +(1/2)(-9.81)(5^2)
x - 100 = 0 - 122.625
x = -122.625 + 100
x = -22.625 m below ground

Air that enters the pleural space during inspiration but is unable to exit during expiration creates a condition called a. open
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is d. tension pneumothorax.

Explanation:

The increasing build-up of air that is in the pleural space is what we call the tension pneumothorax and this happens due to the lung laceration that lets the air to flee inside the pleural space but it does not return.

The 68-kg crate is stationary when the force P is applied. Determine the resulting acceleration of the crate if (a) P = 0, (b) P
bogdanovich [222]

Explanation:

Mass of the crate, m = 68 kg

We need to find the resulting acceleration if :

(a) Force, P = 0

P = m a

⇒ a = 0

(b) P = 181 N

a=\dfrac{P}{m}

a=\dfrac{181\ N}{68\ kg}

a=2.67\ m/s^2

(c) P = 352 N

a=\dfrac{P}{m}

a=\dfrac{352\ N}{68\ kg}

a=5.17\ m/s^2

Hence, this is the required solution.

A scientist directs monochromatic light toward a single slit in an opaque barrier. The light has a wavelength of 580 nm and the
vredina [299]

Answer:

a) 9.72 mm

b) 4.86 mm

Explanation:

wave length of light  λ is  580 nm = 580 \times 10⁻⁹ m

Width of slit d = 0.215\times 10⁻³ m

Distance of screen D  = 1.8 m.

Width of one fringe = \frac{\lambda\times D}{d}

Putting the values we get fringe width

= \frac{580\times10^{-9}\times1.8}{.000315}

=4.86 mm.

a) Width of central maxima = 2 times width of one fringe

= 2 times 4.86

=9.72 mm

b) width of each fringe except central fringe  is same , no matter what the order is.Only brightness changes .

So width of either of the two first order bright fringe will be same and it will be  

= 4.86 mm.

You are at the top of the Empire State Building on the 102nd floor, which is located 373 m above the ground, when your favorite
Liula [17]

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

H = actual height of the superhero = ?

H₀ = height of the superhero as observed = 1.73 m

v = speed of the superhero = 0.50 c

Using the equation

H = H_{o} \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{c} \right )^{2}}

Inserting the values

H = 1.73 \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{0.50 c}{c} \right )^{2}}

H = 1.5 m
