Answer:

v = a/√(2h/g) m/s

Explanation:

Lets say the distance away from the cliff is a.

then, a = v t

where v is velocity with which it was thrown and t is time taken to fall.

Using equations of motion, we can also say that

h=1/2gt^2

where h is the height of the cliff

Thus, t^2 = 2h/g and t = √(2h/g)

Thus, v = a/√(2h/g).

the vehicle was pushed off the cliff with the velocity , v = a/√(2h/g). m/s

How does water flowing over a waterfall involve both kinetic energy and potential energy?

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

While the water falls v increases and h decreases, so the kinetic energy increases and the gravitational potential energy decreases, and this happens in a way that the total energy is always the same. (If there is no friction)

A square plate of copper with 55.0 cm sides has no net charge and is placed in a region of uniform electric field of 82.0 kN/C d

Alex73 [517]

Answer

given,

Side of copper plate, L = 55 cm

Electric field, E = 82 kN/C

a) Charge density,σ = ?

using expression of charge density

σ = E x ε₀

ε₀ is Permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹² C²/Nm²

now,

σ = 82 x 10³ x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

σ = 725.7 x 10⁻⁹ C/m²

σ = 725.7 nC/m²

change density on the plates are 725.7 nC/m² and -725.7 nC/m²

b) Total change on each faces

Q = σ A

Q = 725.7 x 10⁻⁹ x 0.55²

Q = 219.52 nC

Hence, charges on the faces of the plate are 219.52 nC and -219.52 nC

On a balanced seesaw, a boy three times as heavy as his partner sits

slega [8]

Answer:

1/3 the distance from the fulcrum

Explanation:

On a balanced seesaw, the torques around the fulcrum calculated on one side and on another side must be equal. This means that:

$W_1 d_1 = W_2 d_2$

where

W1 is the weight of the boy

d1 is its distance from the fulcrum

W2 is the weight of his partner

d2 is the distance of the partner from the fulcrum

In this problem, we know that the boy is three times as heavy as his partner, so

$W_1 = 3 W_2$

If we substitute this into the equation, we find:

$(3 W_2) d_1 = W_2 d_2$

and by simplifying:

$3 d_1 = d_2\\d_1 = \frac{1}{3}d_2$

which means that the boy sits at 1/3 the distance from the fulcrum.

A Carnot engine's operating temperatures are 240 ∘C and 20 ∘C. The engine's power output is 910 W . Part A Calculate the rate of

scoray [572]

Answer:1200

Explanation:

Given data

Upper Temprature $\left ( T_H\right )=240^{\circ}\approx 513$

Lower Temprature $\left ( T_L\right )=20^{\circ}\approx 293$

Engine power ouput $\left ( W\right )=910 W$

Efficiency of carnot cycle is given by

$\eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}$

$\eta =\frac{W_s}{Q_s}$

$1-\frac{293}{513}=\frac{910}{Q_s}$

$Q_s=2121.954 W$

$Q_r=1211.954 W$

rounding off to two significant figures

$Q_r=1200 W$
