I believe that solar energy would be the best energy for my town.  Solar energy is advantageous because the sun is up every day, and because it takes up much less space than than some other sources of renewable energy.  Some disadvantages of solar energy are that if there is cloud cover, hardly any energy will be gained at all.  Another disadvantage is that it is a long term investment that can take a while for it to pay for itself.

Standing on top of a building, Bob tosses a baseball straight up with an initial speed of 15 m/s. It takes 4.0 s for the ball to
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

48.26 m

Explanation:

time to goes up (till stop for a while in the air - maximum height)

vt = vo + a t

0 = 15 + g . t

0 = 15 + (-9.8) . t

9.8t = 15

t = 1.531 s

so the time left to goes down is

4.0 - 1.531 = 2.469 s

height from the top of building can find it by using

vo =√(2gh)

15 = √(2)(9.8).h

15² = 19.6h

h = 225/19.6 = 11.48 m

so the distance of maximum height to the ground is

t = √(2H/g)

2.469 = √(2H/9.8)

2.469² = 2H/9.8

6.096 = 2H/9.8

2H = 6.096 x 9.8 = 59.74 m

so the vertical distance of the building (or the building height's is)

H - h = 59.74 - 11.48 = 48.26 m

. If she
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

9 meters

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of Avi is, m=40\ kg

Spring constant is, k=176,400\ N/m

Compression in the spring is, x=20\ cm=0.20\ m

Let the maximum height reached be 'h' m.

Now, as the spring is compressed, there is elastic potential energy stored in the spring. This elastic potential energy is transferred to Avi in the form of gravitational potential energy.

So, by law of conservation of energy, decrease in elastic potential energy is equal to increase in gravitational potential energy.

Decrease in elastic potential energy is given as:

EPE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\EPE=\frac{1}{2}\times 176400\times (0.20)^2\\EPE=88200\times 0.04=3528\ J

Now, increase in gravitational potential energy is given as:

GPE=mgh=40\times 9.8\times h=392h

Now, increase in gravitational potential energy is equal decrease in elastic potential energy. Therefore,

392h=3528\\\\h=\frac{3528}{392}\\\\h=9\ m

Therefore, Avi will reach a maximum height of 9 meters.

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

1) is equal  to, 2) is equal to, connected and moving along the same track.

Explanation:

1) The speed of the small engine car <em>is equal to</em> the speed of the massive cargo car.

2) The magnitude of the acceleration of the small engine car <em>is equal to</em> the magnitude of the acceleration of massive cargo car because they are <em>connected and moving along the same track</em>.

Calculate the acceleration due to gravity at a point 1000km above the surface of the earth?
klio [65]

Answer:

g' = 6.74 m/s²

Explanation:

R = 6400km

h = 1000km

g = 9.81m/s

g' = g(1 - 2h/R)

Goodluck

Example of first, second and third law of motion.​
statuscvo [17]

Examples of Newton's three law of motion.

First law of motion: A rocket being launched up in the atmosphere.

Second law of motion:while riding a bicycle, a bicycle acts as a mass and our legs pushing on the pedals of the bicycle is the force.

Third law of motion:when we jump off from the boat,the boat moves backward.

Hope,it will helpyouu!
