A great, helpful, useful definition of acceleration is

<em>A = (change in speed) / (time for the change)</em> . <== you should memorize this

This simple tool will directly solve all 3 problems.

The REASON for assigning these problems for homework is NOT to find the answers. It's to help YOU find out whether you know this definition, to let you go back and review it if you don't, and to give you a chance to practice using it if you do. Noticed that if you get the answers from somebody else, you lose all of these benefits.

The only wrinkle anywhere here is in #3, because when you use this definition, the unit of time has to be the same in both the numerator and the denominator.

So for #3, you have to EITHER change the km/hr to km/sec, OR change the 4sec to a fraction of an hour, before you plug anything into the definition.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Here, he is able both to share his own suffering and—in a way that Mammy cannot—insist on his love for Laila. Babi's dream for leaving Afghanistan is, ironically, based in his love for the country—a love he thinks can be better kept alive by continuing to celebrate its culture and cuisine abroad.JThe nucleus of some isotopes will spontaneously undergo nuclear decay. These isotopes are said to be radioactive. What causes the nucleus of an isotope to be radioactive?

The electric force and nuclear forces are in opposition to each other

Nuclear forces disintegrate protons

There are too many electrons in its orbitals

The electric force causes electrons to be released

(please help i genuinely cant find out why)Babi had wanted Laila and Tariq to understand their country's living, breathing heritage—a heritage quite apart from the violence and turmoil of the national wars. The Buddhas, testimony to an ancient community of monks that lived in caves within the cliffs, symbolize the cultural richness of this national heritageAs an unstable atom tries to reach a stable form, energy and matter are released from the nucleus. This spontaneous change in the nucleus is called radioactive decay. When there is a change in the nucleus and one element changes into another, it is called transmutation.Carbon-14 is unstable and undergoes radioactive decay with a half-life of about 5,730 years (meaning that half of the material will be gone after 5,730 years). This decay means the amount of carbon-14 in an object serves as a clock, showing the object's age in a process called “carbon dating.”Nuclear decay occurs when the nucleus of an atom is unstable and spontaneously emits energy in the form of radiation. The result is that the nucleus changes into the nucleus of one or more other elements. These daughter nuclei have a lower mass and are more stable (lower in energy) than the parent nucleus.

81. A 560-g squirrel with a surface area of 930cm2 falls from a 5.0-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use a

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of squirrel $m=560 gm$

Surface area of squirrel $A=930 cm^2$

and the area which face $A_f=\frac{A}{2}=465 cm^2$

height of tree $h=5 m$

Coefficient of drag $C=1$

drag Force $F_d=\frac{1}{2}C\cdot \rho \cdot A\cdot v^2$

Terminal velocity is given

$F_d=mg$

$\frac{1}{2}C\cdot \rho \cdot A\cdot v^2=mg$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times m\times g}{\rho \times C\times A_f}}$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.560\times 9.8}{1.2\times 1\times 465\times 10^{-4}}}$

$v=13.9 m/s$

(b)Mass of person $m=56 kg$

$v^2-u^2=2gh$

$u=0$

$v=\sqrt{2gh}$

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5}$

$v=9.89 m/s$
