Why is it more comfortable to fall onto a big pillow than onto a wooden floor ?

1 answer:

6 0

I believe the answer to this question is C. The pillow distributes the decelerating force over a greater amount of time .

sudden stops are damaging, not the fall itself.

When falling on a mat it will take longer since a smaller force=longer falling time

when falling on a wooden floor it will take shorter since a larger force=smaller falling time

Hence, if the sudden fall is what causes impact and discomfort, and a smaller force equals longer falling time, and a larger force equals shorter falling time and smaller falling time equals less impact, then, C. must be the answer.

Problem #3: 3.6. A diode has wdo = 0.4 µm and φj = 0.85 V. (a) What reverse bias is required to triple the depletion-layer width

Alchen [17]

Answer:

a) 6.8 Volt

b) 1.21Цm

Explanation:

We are given from the question that

The zero -bias depletion layer width( $W_{do}$ ) is 0.4Цm

The built in voltage φj is 0.85V

Now to calculate the reverse voltage( $V_{R}$ ) that would be required to triple the depletion - layer width.

The depletion - layer width ( $W_{d}$ ) of the diode has the formula

$W_{d} = W_{do} \sqrt{1 + \frac{V_{R} }{Qj} }$

For three times of $W_{d}$ we have

$3W_{d} = W_{do} \sqrt{1 +\frac{V_{R} }{Qj} }$

=> $\frac{V_{R} }{Qj} = 3^{2} -1$

=> $V_{R} = 8Qj$

Substituting value of φj

We have

$V_{R} = 8(0.85V)$

= 6.8 V

The required bias voltage $V_{R}$ is 6.8 V

The earth travels around the sun once a year in an approximately circular orbit whose radius is 1.50x10^11 m. From this data det

seraphim [82]

(a) Determine the circumference of the Earth through the equation,
C = 2πr
Substituting the known values,
C = 2π(1.50 x 10¹¹ m)
C = 9.424 x 10¹¹ m

Then, divide the answer by time which is given to a year which is equal to 31536000 s.
orbital speed = (9.424 x 10¹¹ m)/31536000 s

orbital speed = 29883.307 m/s

Hence, the orbital speed of the Earth is ~29883.307 m/s.

(b) The mass of the sun is ~1.9891 x 10³⁰ kg.

F F= {mango, apple, banana, orange)

Stels [109]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cardinality of a set is the number of elements in that set. Given the set.

F= {mango, apple, banana, orange), we are to determine the cardinality of the set i.e the amount of fruit present in the set. Cardinality of the set F is represented as n(F).

Since there are 4 different fruit in the given set F, hence the cardinality of the set F is n(F) = 4

Enrique is given information about a satellite orbiting Earth. R = 3. 8 Ă— 108 m T = 18 days In order to calculate the tangentia

NISA [10]

The first step that Enrique must take in order to calculate the tangential speed of the satellite is to convert the period from days to seconds.

We know that the SI unit of speed is meter per second and now, we with to obtain the tangential speed of the satellite.

Since the period is given in days, the first step is to convert the period from days to seconds.
