A) The answer is 11.53 m/s

The final kinetic energy (KEf) is the sum of initial kinetic energy (KEi) and initial potential energy (PEi).
KEf = KEi + PEi

Kinetic energy depends on mass (m) and velocity (v)
KEf = 1/2 m * vf²
KEi = 1/2 m * vi²

Potential energy depends on mass (m), acceleration (a), and height (h):
PEi = m * a * h

So:
KEf = KEi + <span>PEi
</span>1/2 m * vf² =  1/2 m * vi² + m * a * h
..
Divide all sides by m:
1/2 vf² =  1/2 vi² + a * h

We know:
vi = 9.87 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s²
h = 1.81 m

1/2 vf² =  1/2 * 9.87² + 9.8 * 1.81
1/2 vf² = 48.71 + 17.74
1/2 vf² = 66.45
vf² = 66.45 * 2
vf² = 132.9
vf = √132.9
vf = 11.53 m/s


b) The answer is 6.78 m

The kinetic energy at the bottom (KE) is equal to the potential energy at the highest point (PE)
KE = PE

Kinetic energy depends on mass (m) and velocity (v)
KE = 1/2 m * v²

Potential energy depends on mass (m), acceleration (a), and height (h):
PE = m * a * h

KE = PE
1/2 m * v² = m * a * h

Divide both sides by m:
1/2 * v² = a * h
v = 11.53 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s² 
h = ?

1/2 * 11.53² = 9.8 * h
1/2 * 132.94 = 9.8 * h
66.47 = 9.8 * h
h = 66.47 / 9.8
h = 6.78 m

Why does the Sun appear so big, bright, and hot if it is<br> only an average sized star?
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The Sun looks bigger than other stars because it is so much closer to the Earth. The further away an object is, the smaller it appears, even if it is very big.

Explanation:

However, compared to other stars, our Sun is only a medium-sized star, meaning that some stars are much larger than the Sun and some are much smaller.

How many excess electrons are on a ball with a charge of -1.4944 10-16 C?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

There are 934 excess electrons on the ball with charge -1.4944*10^(-16).

Step-by-Step Explanation:

A ball will usually be neutral and have no charge on it.

If it is negatively charged, it means there are excess electrons on it.

If we know the charge on the ball, we can count the excess no. of electrons.

We know that the charge on the ball = c = -1.4944*10^-16

Charge of one electron = e = 1.6*10^-19

Charge of n electrons on the ball = ne = c

⇒ n = c/e

n = (-1.4944*10^-16)/(1.6*10^-19)

n = 934 electrons

A hair dryer is basically a duct of constant diameter in which a few layers of electric resistors are placed. A small fan pulls
nekit [7.7K]

Given:

density of air at inlet, \rho_{a} = 1.20 kg/m_{3}

density of air at inlet, \rho_{b} = 1.05 kg/m_{3}

Solution:

Now,

\dot{m} = \dot{m_{a}} = \dot{m_{b}}

\rho_{a} A v_{a} = \rho _{b} Av_{b}                        (1)

where

A = Area of cross section

v_{a} = velocity of air at inlet

v_{b} = velocity of air at outlet

Now, using eqn (1), we get:

\frac{v_{b}}{v_{a}} = \frac{\rho_{a}}{\rho_{b}}

\frac{v_{b}}{v_{a}} = \frac{1.20}{1.05} = 1.14

% increase in velocity = 1.14\times 100 =114%

which is 14% more

Therefore % increase in velocity is 14%
