Answer:

               h= 45.87 m.

Explanation:

Data given:

Vf= 30m/s ,     and we know that g = 9.8 m/s²    

The ball has an initial velocity of zero      Vi = 0 m/s²    

To Find:

Height of the building = ?

Solution:

       According to 3rd law of the motion;

                                      2aS= Vf² - Vi²                      ( S= h , a=g)

                                     2*9.81*h = (30)² - (0)²

                                      h= 45.87 m.

The three forces acting on a hot-air balloon that is moving vertically are its weight, the force due to air resistance and the u
irinina [24]

Explanation :

The forces acting on hot- air balloon are:

Weight, (W)

Force due to air resistance, (F)

Upthrust force, (U)

Its weight W is acting in downward direction. The upthrust force U acts in upward direction. When the balloon is moving upward, the air resistance is in downward and vice versa.

In this case, the hot-air balloon descends vertically at constant speed.

so, a=0

and F=ma=0

so, W = F + U ....................(1)

when it is ascending let the weight that it is releasing is R, so

(W-R) + F = U..........(2)

solving equation (1) and (2)

(W-R)+F=W-F

R=2F            

2F is the weight of material that must be released from the balloon so that it ascends vertically at the same constant speed.

Simon is riding a bike at 12 km/h away from his friend Keesha.He throws a ball at 5 km/h back to Keesha, who is standing still o
Tems11 [23]

I notice that even though we're working with frames of reference
here, you never said which frame the '5 km/hr' is measured in.

In fact !  You didn't even say which frame the '12 km/hr' of his
bike is measured in.

So there are several different ways this could go.  I'll do it the way
I THINK you meant it, but that doesn't guarantee anything.

-- Simon is riding his bike at 12 km/hr relative to the sidewalk,
away from Keesha.

-- He throws a ball at Keesha, at 5 km/hr relative to his own face.

-- Keesha sees the ball approaching her at (12 - 5) = 7 km/hr
relative to the ground and to her.

Find the magnitude of the electric field due to a charged ring of radius "a" and total charge "Q", at a point on the ring axis a
34kurt

Answer:

E=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}

Explanation:

We are given that

Charge on ring= Q

Radius of ring=a

We have to find the magnitude of electric filed on the axis at distance a from the ring's center.

We know that the electric field at distance x from the center of ring of radius R is given by

E=\frac{kQx}{(R^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

Substitute x=a and R=a

Then, we get

E=\frac{KQa}{(a^2+a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

E=\frac{KQa}{(2a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

E=\frac{KQa}{2\sqrt 2a^3}

E=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}

Where K=9\times 10^9 Nm^2/C^2

Hence, the magnitude of the electric filed due to charged ring on the axis of ring at distance a from the ring's center=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

C) Burmese pythons lack natural predators and can utilize a wide variety of food sources in the Everglades.

Explanation:

Due to it being an invasive specie (naturally found in South Asia), and also one of the five largest species of snakes in the world, the Burmese pythons lack natural predators in this new territories.

The Burmese viper is also an opportunistic hunter and would eat anything it can overpower, it easily made a wide range of food varieties in these swamps.

Two light bulbs have resistances of 400 Ω and 800 ΩThe two light bulbs are connected in series across a 120- V line. Find the cu
Natasha2012 [34]

1) Current in each bulb: 0.1 A

The two light bulbs are connected in series, this means that their equivalent resistance is just the sum of the two resistances:

R_{eq}=R_1 + R_2 = 400 \Omega + 800 \Omega=1200 \Omega

And so, the current through the circuit is (using Ohm's law):

I=\frac{V}{R_{eq}}=\frac{120 V}{1200 \Omega}=0.1 A

And since the two bulbs are connected in series, the current through each bulb is the same.

2) 4 W and 8 W

The power dissipated by each bulb is given by the formula:

P=I^2 R

where I is the current and R is the resistance.

For the first bulb:

P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (400 \Omega)=4 W

For the second bulb:

P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (800 \Omega)=8 W

3) 12 W

The total power dissipated in both bulbs is simply the sum of the power dissipated by each bulb, so:

P_{tot} = P_1 + P_2 = 4 W + 8 W=12 W
