Answer:

80m, assuming g=10m/s^2

Explanation:

40m/s will be reduced to 0m/s in 4 seconds. 4 seconds x 40m/s would be 160m up, but you will only get half of that because you decelerate linearly to 0m/s. This leaves you with 4 x 20 = 80m.

Answer:

80m

Explanation:

According to the equation of motion, v²= u²+2as

Where v is the final velocity of the body at maximum height= 0m/s

u is the initial velocity of the body = 40m/s

a = -g (negative acceleration due to gravity since the object is thrown upward) = -10m/s²

S = H = the height of the ball above the ground

Substituting the values into the equation given, we will have;

0² = 40²-2(10)H

0 = 1600-20H

-1600 = -20H

H = -1600/-20

H = 80m

The height of the ball above the ground where it stops will be 80m

The maximum electric field strength in air is 3.0 Mv/m . Stronger electric fields ionize the air and create a spark. What is the

adoni [48]

Answer:

The value is $P_{max} = 2.11 * 10^{6} \ W$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The maximized electric field strength is $E = 3.0 \ MV/m = 3.0 *10^{6} \ V/m$

The diameter is $d = 1.5\ cm = 0.015 \ m$

Generally the cross -sectional area is mathematically represented as

=> $A = \frac{\pi * d^2 }{4}$

=> $A = \frac{3.142 * 0.015^2 }{4}$

=> $A = 0.0001767 \ m^2$

Generally the maximum power is mathematically represented as

$P_{max} = \frac{E_{max}^2}{ 2 * \mu_o * c } * A$

Here c is the speed of light with value $c = 3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s$

$\mu_o$ is the permeability of free space with value $\mu_o = 4 \pi *10^{-7} \ H/m$

$P_{max} = \frac{ (3.0 *10^{6})^2}{ 2 * (4 \pi *10^{-7}) * 3.0 *10^{8} } * 0.0001767$

=> $P_{max} = 2.11 * 10^{6} \ W$

What type of specialized cell in the eye is used for detecting low levels of light?

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

There are about six to seven million cones in a human eye and are most concentrated towards the macula. Cones are less sensitive to light than the rod cells in the retina (which support vision at low light levels), but allow the perception of color.
