Answer:

t=\sqrt{h/g}

Explanation:

We use the kinematics equation to solve this question:

y(t)=y_{o}+v_{o}t+1/2*a*t^{2}

v_{o}=0    because the ball is dropped

a=-g         the acceleration is the gravity, negative because it points downwards

y_{o}=h     initial height

y(t)=h/2     final height

So:

h/2=h-1/2*g*t^{2}

t=\sqrt{h/g}

notka56 [123]

Explanation:

A metal such as copper is a <u>conductor</u> because it provides a pathway for electric charges to move easily. A material such as rubber is an <u>insulator</u> because it <u>resists</u> the flow of electric charges. A material that partially conducts electric current is a <u>semiconductor</u>. These materials include <u>group 3 and group 5</u> elements.

If the radius of a blood vessel drops to 84.0% of its original radius because of the buildup of plaque, and the body responds by
erma4kov [3.2K]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the equations concerning Bernoulli's law of conservation of flow.

From Bernoulli it is possible to express the change in pressure as

\Delta P = \frac{1}{2}\rho (v_1^2-v_2^2)+ \rho g (h_1h_2)

Where,

v_i =Velocity

\rho = Density

g = Gravitational acceleration

h = Height

From the given values the change of flow is given as

R = r^4P

Therefore between the two states we have to

\frac{R_2}{R_1} = \frac{r_2^4 P_2}{r_1^4 P_1} *100\%

\frac{R_2}{R_1} = \frac{84^4 (110)}{100^4*(100)} *100\%

\frac{R_2}{R_1} = 54.77\%

The flow rate will have changed to 54.77 % of its original value.

Help me with this physics math?
solong [7]
Ok. PEMDAS tells us to take care of the square first. When we do that, the denominator becomes

(6.4)^2 x 10^12

= 40.96 x 10^12 .

Now it's just a matter of mashing out the fraction.

The 'mantissa' (the number part) is

6/40.96 = 0.1465

and the order of magnitude is

10^24 / 10^12 = 10^12 .

Put it all together and you've got

1.465 x 10^11 .
