Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Let us consider 40 meter above ground as origin.

Initial velocity = 17 m/s

Final velocity = 24 m/s

Acceleration = 9.81 m/s

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Substituting

         24² = 17² + 2 x 9.81 x s

           s = 14.63 m

Distance traveled by rock = 14.63 m down.

Height of rock from ground = 40 - 14.63 = 25.37 m = 25.4 m

Option B is the correct answer.

Anni [7]

Answer:

\frac{dQ}{dt} = 966 W

Explanation:

As we know that the rate of heat transfer due to temperature difference is given by the formula

\frac{dQ}{dt} = \frac{KA(\Delta T)}{L}

here we know that

K = 0.69 W/m-K

A = 4 m x 7 m

thickness = 30 cm

temperature difference is given as

\Delta T = 20 - 5 = 15 ^oC

now we have

\frac{dQ}{dt} = \frac{(0.69W/m-K)(28 m^2)(15)}{0.30}

\frac{dQ}{dt} = 966 W

GenaCL600 [577]
A dish shaped large muscle which moves up and down when there is contraction and expansion of lungs is the diaphragm which is present between the chest cavity and lower abdominal region. The action of the diaphragm is affected by an inflammation occurring below the muscular disc which will affect the process of breathing. The forceful breathing may result in strain and stress in the back muscles of the human body. This in turn causes pain in the shoulder.

If you lose control of your vehicle and collide with a fixed object, such as a tree, at 60 m.p.h., the force of impact is the sa
My name is Ann [436]
You can compare the velocity of the car, 60 mph, with the velocity that a mass would acquire when falls from certain height.

First, convert 60 mph to m/s:

60 miles/h * 1.60 km/mile * 1000 m/km * 1h/3600s = 26.67 m/s

Second, calculate from what height a body in free fall reachs 26.67 m/s velocity when hits the floor.

free fall => Vf^2 = 2g*H => H = Vf^2 / (2g)

H = (26.67m/s)^2 / (2*9.8 m/s) = 36.2 m

If you consider that the height between the floors of a building is approximately 3.6 m, you get 36.2 m / 3.6 m/floor = 10 floors.

Then, you conclude that the force of impact is the same as driving you vehicle off a 10 story building.

What is the speed that is measured in speedometer to track speed violation?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The officer's unit detects this 135-mile-per-hour speed and should subtract the patrol car's 70-mile -per-hour ground speed to get your true speed of 65 miles per hour. Instead, the officer's ground-speed beam fixes on the truck ahead and measures a false 50-mile-per-hour ground speed.

Explanation:

A speedometer or speed meter is a gauge that measures and displays the instantaneous speed of a vehicle. Now universally fitted to motor vehicles, they started to be available as options in the early 20th century, and as standard equipment from about 1910 onwards.

Two resistors with values of 6.0 ohms and 12 ohms are connected in parallel. This combination is connected in series with a 2.0
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

4A

Explanation:

According to ohm's law;

E = IRt where;

E is the source voltage = 24volts

I is the total current flowing in the circuit = ?

Rt is the total effective resistance in the circuit.

To find Rt, we will resolve the resistors in parallel first.

Since 6ohms and 12ohms resistors are in parallel, their effective resistance will give;

1/R = 1/6+1/12

1/R= 2+1/12

1/R = 3/12

3R = 12

R = 4ohms.

This resistor will now be in series with the 2.0ohms resistor to finally have;

Rt = 4+2

Rt = 6ohms

From the ohms law formula;

I = E/Rt

I = 24/6

I = 4Amperes

The total current in the circuit is 4A

This same currents will flow in the 2ohms resistor since same current flows in a series connected resistors.
