Two trees have perfectly straight trunks and are both growing perpendicular to the flat horizontal ground beneath them. The side

s of the trunks that face each other are separated by 1.1 m. A frisky squirrel makes three jumps in rapid succession. First, he leaps from the foot of one tree to a spot that is 0.9 m above the ground on the other tree. Then, he jumps back to the first tree, landing on it at a spot that is 1.7 m above the ground. Finally, he leaps to the other tree, now landing at a spot that is 2.3 m above the ground. What is the magnitude of the squirrel's displacement?

Answer:

2.55 m.

Explanation:

Displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position . In the present case this distance forms the hypotenuse of the triangle having base equal to 1.1 m and perpendicular equal to 2.3 m .

Hypotenuse H then

H² = 1.1² + 2.3²

H = 2.55 m.

jonny [76]

Answer:

1.) Covering the ceiling and walls with soft perforated boards

2.) Hanging curtains round the hall

3.) Having more opening in the wall.

Explanation:

This is due to what we called Reverberation due to poor acoustic properties.

Reverberation can be reduced by;

1.) Covering the ceiling and walls with soft perforated boards

2.) Hanging curtains round the hall

3.) Having more opening in the wall.

When a fork is placed in a hot piece of lasagna, thermal energy is transferred up the fork by...
Gnom [1K]
Because it's placed in the lasagna, the thermal energy is transferred by conduction. Remember, convection is transfer of heat through fluids (liquids and gases), and radiation is just transfer of heat through air.

A hot-air balloon consists of a basket hanging beneath a large envelope filled with hot air. A typical hot-air balloon has a tot
Deffense [45]

Answer:

1.05045 kg/m³

Explanation:

\rho_a = Density of air = 1.26 kg/m³

\rho_{ha} = Density of hot air

m_a = Mass of balloon = 539 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v = Volume of air in balloon = 2.62\times 10^3\ m^3

The net force on the balloon will be

F_n=(\rho_a-\rho_{ha})vg

Also

F_n=m_ag

\\\Rightarrow 549g=(\rho_a-\rho_{ha})vg\\\Rightarrow 549=(1.26-\rho_{ha})2.62\times 10^3\\\Rightarrow -\rho_{ha}=\frac{549}{2.62\times 10^3}-1.26\\\Rightarrow \rho_{ha}=1.05045\ kg/m^3

The density of hot air inside the envelope is 1.05045 kg/m³
