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

Einstein’s theory of general relativity describes how space and time are connected. What makes this idea a theory?

vredina [299]

B. A hypothesis is just an idea. And can become a Theory if there is some evidence. However a Theory is not a law, but an idea with supportive evidence

You drag a crate across a floor with a rope. The force applied is 750 N and the angle of the rope is 25.0° above the horizontalH

frez [133]

The work done by a constant force along a rectilinear motion when the force and the displacement vector are not colinear is given by:

$W=F\cos\theta\cdot d$

where F is the magnitude of the force, theta is the angle between them and d is the distance.

The problen gives the following data:

The magnitude of the force 750 N.

The angle between the force and the displacement which is 25°

The distance, 26 m.

Plugging this in the formula we have:

$\begin{gathered} W=\left(750\right)\left(\cos25\right)\left(26\right) \\ W=17673 \end{gathered}$

Therefore the work done is 17673 J.

The power is given by:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

the problem states that the time it takes is 6 s. Then:

$\begin{gathered} P=\frac{17673}{6} \\ P=2945.5 \end{gathered}$

Therefore the power is 2945.5 W

A line of charge starts at x = +x0 and extends to positive infinity. The linear charge density is λ = λ0x0/x. Determine the elec

kari74 [83]

Explanation:

it is given that, the linear charge density of a charge, $\lambda=\dfrac{\lambda_ox_o}{x}$

Firstly, we can define the electric field for a small element and then integrate for the whole. The very small electric field is given by :

$dE=\dfrac{k\ dq}{x^2}$ ..........(1)

The linear charge density is given by :

$\lambda=\dfrac{dq}{dx}$

$dq=\lambda.dx=\dfrac{\lambda_ox_o}{x}dx$

Integrating equation (1) from x = x₀ to x = infinity

$E=\int\limits^\infty_{x_o} {\dfrac{k\lambda_ox_o}{x^3}}.dx$

$E=-\dfrac{k\lambda_ox_o}{2}\dfrac{1}{x^2}|_{x_o}^\infty}$

$E=\dfrac{k\lambda_o}{2x_o}$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 5.45-g combustible sample is burned in a calorimeter. the heat generated changes the temperature of 555 g of water from 20.5°c

Y_Kistochka [10]

Given:
m = 555 g, the mass of water in the calorimeter
ΔT = 39.5 - 20.5 = 19 °C, temperature change
c = 4.18 J/(°C-g), specific heat of water

Assume that all generated heat goes into heating the water.
Then the energy released is
Q = mcΔT
= (555 g)*(4.18 J/(°C-g)*(19 °C)
= 44,078.1 J
= 44,100 J (approximately)

Answer: 44,100 J
