Answer:

Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

Final Velocity = 34.6 m/s

time = 3.5 s

Explanation:

The initial velocity must be zero since, the egg must be at rest initially, before dropping.

<u>Initial Velocity = 0 m/s</u>

Now, for time we use 2nd equation of motion:

h = Vi t + (1/2)gt²

where,

h = Height = 61 m

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

t =time = ?

Therefore,

61 m = (0 m/s)(t) + (1/2)(9.8 m/s²)t²

t² = (61 m)(2)/(9.8 m/s²)

t = √(12.45 s²)

Now, for final velocity we will use 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + gt

Vf = 0 m/s + (9.8 m/s²)(3.5 s)

Vf = 34.6 m/s

Radda [10]

Answer:

Neither technician

Explanation:

Neither technician is correct.

two bulbs are connected in series one bulb burn out

If one bulb in the series burns out then the circuit will break.

In a series circuit same current passes each resistor.

so, both the technician is incorrect bulb B will not work and current will not increase in the other bulb.

Volcanic eruptions are natural phenomena in the . They sometimes erupt, spilling out lava and dust. The lava solidifies, forming

solniwko [45]

Answer:

B. Geosphere

A. Biosphere

A. Atmosphere

Explanation:

Volcanic eruptions occurs within the Geosphere. The geosphere is the rock solid earth make up of rocks that extends into the deep interior.

Magma formed deep within the crust rises to elevated parts and finally erupts as lava on the surface. When they cool, they solidify to form volcanic rocks.

The volcanic eruptions affects the biosphere significantly. The biosphere is the portion of the earth where all life forms exists.

Gases and ash spewed during an eruption into the atmosphere causes severe changes to weather and leads to pollution. The atmosphere is the gaseous envelope round the earth.

A car is traveling at 39.7 mi/h on a horizontal highway. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . If the coefficient of fricti

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The minimum distance in which the car will stop is

x=167.38m

Explanation:

$39.7\frac{mi}{h}*\frac{1km}{0.621371mi}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=17.747\frac{m}{s}$

∑F=m*a

∑F=u*m*g

The force of friction is the same value but in different direction of the force moving the car so it can stop so

$F=m*a\\a=\frac{F}{m}\\a=\frac{u*m*g}{m}\\a=u*g\\a=0.096*-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

$a=-0.9408 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

$v_{f}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*(x_{f}-x_{o})\\v_{f}=0 \\x_{o}=0\\0=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*x_{f}\\x_{f}=\frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2*a} \\x_{f}=\frac{(-17.747\frac{m}{s})^{2}}{2*(-0.9408)} \\x_{f}=167.38m$

Consider a long rod of mass, m, and length, l, which is thin enough that its width can be ignored compared to its length. The ro

ehidna [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rod will act as pendulum for small oscillation .

Time period of oscillation

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

angular frequency ω = 2π / T

= $\omega=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }$

b )

ω = 20( given )

velocity = ω r = ω l

Let the maximum angular displacement in terms of degree be θ .

1/2 m v ² = mgl ( 1 - cosθ ) ,

[ l-lcosθ is loss of height . we have applied law of conservation of mechanical energy .]

.5 ( ω l )² = gl( 1 - cos θ )

.5 ω² l = g ( 1 - cosθ )

1 - cosθ = .5 ω² l /g

cosθ = 1 - .5 ω² l /g

θ can be calculated , if value of l is given .
