Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall Motion </u>

When a body is left to move in the air with no friction, the motion is ruled only by the force of gravity. The vertical distance a body travels in the air after a time t is .

$\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}$

We know the egg takes 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. The height it was launched from is

$\displaystyle y=\frac{(9.8)(3.474)^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle y=68.54\ m$

The closest correct option is

B. 68.6m

asambeis [7]

Answer:

The deceleration is 4 times higher for 0.5sec than for 2 sec.

Explanation:

If the deceleration happens from 1800deg/sec to zero in 2 sec we have that the magnitude is:

$a_{1}=w/t_{1}=(1800deg/sec)/2sec=900 deg/sec^{2}$

if now the time to decelerate is 0.5sec:

$a_{2}=w/t_{2}=(1800deg/sec)/0.5sec=3600 deg/sec^{2}$

The deceleration is now 4 times higher than the previous situation.

A coaxial cable consists of an inner conductor with radius ri = 0.20 cm and an outer radius of ro = 0.4 cm and has a length of 1

N76 [4]

Answer:

$R = 1.69*10^{11} ohm$

Explanation:

ri = 0.20cm

ro = 0.4 cm

length L = 13m

resistivity \rho = 2.00*10^13 ohm m

resistance can be determine by using following relation

$R = \frac{\rho}{2\pi L} ln\frac{ro}{ri}$

$R = \frac{2.00*10^{13}}{2\pi *10} ln\frac{.004}{.002}$

$R = 1.69*10^{11} ohm$

One or more calcium ions (Ca+2) combine with one or more chlorine ions (Cl-1). What is the resulting formula?

N76 [4]

The formula is CaCl2 as you need two Cl ions in order to combine with one Ca ion in order to form a neutral compound i.e. You need to have the same amount of charges therefore you have two Cl ions which have -1 charges for one +2 Ca ion.
Hope this helps :).
