According to the conservation of mechanical energy, the kinetic energy just before the ball strikes the ground is equal to the potential energy just before it fell. 

Therefore, we can say KE = PE
We know that PE = m·g·h

Which means KE = m·g·h

We can solve for h:

h = KE / m·g
   = 20 / (0.15 · 9.8) 
   = 13.6m

The correct answer is: the ball has fallen from a height of 13.6m.

An alternative to CFL bulbs and incandescent bulbs are light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs. A 16-W LED bulb can replace a 100-W inc
Yanka [14]

Answer:

LED bulb = 0.145 A

Incandescent bulb = 0.909 A

CFL bulb = 0.218 A

Explanation:

Given:

Power rating of LED bulb (P₁) = 16 W

Power rating of incandescent bulb (P₂) = 100 W

Power rating of CFL bulb (P₃) = 24 W

Terminal voltage across the circuit (V) = 110 V

We know that, power is related to terminal voltage and current drawn as:

P=VI

Express this in terms of 'I'. This gives,

I=\frac{P}{V}

Now, calculate the current drawn in each bulb using their respective values.

For LED bulb, P_1=16\ W, V=110\ V

So, current drawn is given as:

I_1=\frac{16\ W}{110\ V}=0.145\ A

For incandescent bulb, P_2=100\ W, V=110\ V

So, current drawn is given as:

I_2=\frac{100\ W}{110\ V}=0.909\ A

For CFL bulb, P_3=24\ W, V=110\ V

So, current drawn is given as:

I_3=\frac{24\ W}{110\ V}=0.218\ A

Therefore, the currents drawn through LED bulb, incandescent bulb and CFL bulb are 0.145 A, 0.909 A and 0.218 A respectively.

20 miles per hour north is an example of ______
timofeeve [1]
B. It's an example of velocity due to the fact that it has a measurement of speed, divided by time, and has a specific direction. Acceleration doesn't have any direction on it, but has speed divided by time. C and D have a different mode of measurement despite of the fact that it still needs meters/miles/km.

A trooper is moving due south along the freeway at a speed of 30.1 m/s when a red car passes the trooper. The red car moves with
romanna [79]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "41.87 m".

Explanation:

The given values are:

The speed of trooper = 30.1 \ m/s

The velocity of red car = 45.4 \ m/s

Now,

A red car goes as far as possible until the speed or velocity of the troops is the same as that of of the red car at

t=\frac{45-30}{2.7}                                                              (∵ time=\frac{distance}{time})

t=5.56 \ sec

then,

The distance covered by trooper,

t1=30\times 5.56+\frac{1}{2}\times 2.7\times (5.56)^2

   =208.33 \ m

The distance covered by red car,

= 45\times 5.56

= 250.2 \ m

Maximum distance = 250.2-208.33

                                = 41.87 \ m
