On both the spring and fall equinoxes, the sun's rays are vertically overhead at the _______

1 answer:

5 0

It is overhead at the equator, it is because the sun ray’s will be moving vertically as this will be directed at the equator. It is because if it moves vertically, it will hit or overhead the equator and this usually happens in spring and fall.

maksim [4K]

(a) The ball’s maximum speed over the net is v(max) = √2gh.

(b) The maximum speed of the horizontally moving ball clearing the net is about 27 m/s.

<h3>Time of motion of the ball</h3>

The time of motion of the ball is calculated as follows;

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

1 = 0 + ¹/₂(9.8)t²

1 = 4.9t²

t² = 1/4.9

t² = 0.204

t = 0.452 s

<h3>Horizontal speed of the ball</h3>

The horizontal speed of the ball is calculated as follows;

X = vt

v = X/t

v = (12 m)/(0.452)

v = 26.6 m/s ≈ 27 m/s (proved)

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

P.E = K.E

mgh = ¹/₂mv²

gh = ¹/₂v²

2gh = v²

√2gh = v(max)

Speed of the ball is independent of its mass.

You are given a parallel plate capacitor that has plates of area 27 cm^2 which are separated by 0.0100 mm of nylon (dielectric c

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Applied voltage should be 13.5396 kV

Explanation:

The charge stored by a capacitor when subjected to a potential difference 'v' across it's plates is given by

$Q=\frac{K\epsilon _{o} A}{d}V$

Solving for V we get

$V=\frac{Qd}{K\epsilon _{o}A}$

thus to store a charge of 0.11mC we solve for V as follows

Applying values we get

$V=\frac{0.11\times 10^{-3}\times 0.01\times 10^{-3}}{27\times 10^{-4}\times 3.4\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}$

$\therefore V=13.5396kV$
