Distance equals velocity times time:
x = v*t  = 1.7 m/s * 7.7min * 60 s/min = 785.4 m

g A ball thrown straight up into the air is found to be moving at 7.94 m/s after falling 2.72 m below its release point. Find th
kati45 [8]

The ball has height <em>y</em> and velocity <em>v</em> at time <em>t</em> according to

<em>y</em> = <em>v</em>₀ <em>t</em> - 1/2 <em>g</em> <em>t</em> ²

and

<em>v</em> = <em>v</em>₀ - <em>g t</em>

where <em>v</em>₀ is its initial speed and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

The ball is falling with a velocity of 7.94 m/s when it's 2.72 m below the release point, which at time <em>t </em>such that

-2.72 m = <em>v</em>₀ <em>t</em> - 1/2 <em>g</em> <em>t</em> ²

-7.94 m/s = <em>v</em>₀ - <em>g t</em>

Solve for <em>t</em> in the second equation:

<em>t </em>= (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)/<em>g</em>

Substitute this into the first equation and solve for <em>v</em>₀ :

-2.72 m = <em>v</em>₀ (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s) /<em>g</em> - 1/2 <em>g</em> ((<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)/<em>g</em>)²

-2.72 m = <em>v</em>₀²/<em>g</em> + (7.94 m/s) <em>v</em>₀/<em>g</em> - 1/2 (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)²/<em>g</em>

2 (-2.72 m) <em>g</em> = 2<em>v</em>₀² + 2 (7.94 m/s) <em>v</em>₀ - (<em>v</em>₀ + 7.94 m/s)²

2 (-2.72 m) (9.80 m/s²) = 2<em>v</em>₀² + (15.9 m/s) <em>v</em>₀ - (<em>v</em>₀² + (15.9 m/s) <em>v</em>₀ + 63.0 m²/s²)

-53.3 m²/s² = <em>v</em>₀² - 63.0 m²/s²

<em>v</em>₀² = 9.73 m²/s²

<em>v</em>₀ = 3.12 m/s

Because Vf>>Vi, and Vf=nRT/pex, then w=-pex x nRT/pex=-nRT (im assuming n is number of moles of CO2?). 1 mole of CaCO3 makes 1 mole of CO2, so plugging in numbers, I get 8.9kJ, although I dont use the 1 atm pressure at all

Wire 1 has a resistance R1. Wire 2 is made of the same material, with length 1/2 as long and diameter 1/4. What is the resistanc
hodyreva [135]

-- reduce the length of a wire to 1/2 . . . cut the resistance in half

-- reduce the diameter to 1/4 . . . reduce the cross-section area by (1/4²) . . . increase the resistance by 16x .

-- R2 = (R1) · (1/2) · (16)  =  8 · R1

<em>-- R2 / R1  =  8</em>

klasskru [66]

Boyle's law states that when you "shrink"(change its size) a container the pressure increases so the best answer would be D-volume is decreased.
