While standing at the edge of the roof of a building, you throw a stone upward with an initial speed of 5.55 m/s. The stone subs

equently falls to the ground, which is14.7 m below the point where the stone leaves your hand. At what speed does the stone impact the ground? How much time is the stone in the air? Ignore air resistance and take g = 9.81 m/s2.
What is the Impact Speed:____m/s

What is the Elapsed Time:____s

Let's solve first for the impact speed. The impact speed or velocity of any free-falling body follows the formula written below:

v = √2gy
where
y is the height of the free fall

Now, the length of y includes the distance it took for the upward motion, and the free falling motion that covers the maximum height plus the remaining distance of 14.7 ft. Let's compute first the maximum height reached:

Hmax = v₀²/2g, where v₀ is the initial velocity
Hmax = (5.55 m/s)²/2(9.81 m/s²) = 1.57 m
Thus,
y = 1.57 m + 14.7 m = 16.27 m
v = √2(9.81 m/s²)(16.27 m)
v = 17.87 m/s

For the second question, there are two sections of the total time. The first is the time for the upward motion:
t₁ = 2v₀/g = 2(5.55 m/s)/(9.81 m/s²) = 1.13 s
The second section is the time for the free fall:
t₂ = √2y/g = √2(16.27 m)/9.81 m/s² = 1.82 s
Thus, the total time is:
Time = 1.13 s + 1.82 s = 2.95 s

Which process is represented by the PV diagram shown below?
MrMuchimi

Answer: B. the isovolumetric process

Explanation:

In the graph given, the volume is constant throughout. It represents a constant volume process. Such processes are called the isovolumetric process or isochoric process.

<em>Hence, option B is the correct answer.</em>

Option A is incorrect because in an isobaric process, the pressure is constant.

Option C is incorrect because in an isothermal process, the temperature is constant.

Option D is incorrect because in an adiabatic process there is no heat transfer.

You have a spring-loaded air rifle. When it is loaded, the spring is compressed 0.3 m and has a spring constant of 150 N/m. In j
Feliz [49]

The potential energy of the spring is 6.75 J

The elastic potential energy stored in the spring is given by the equation:

E= \frac{1}{2} kx^2

where;

k is the spring constant

x is the compression/stretching of the string

In this problem, we have the spring as follows:

k = 150 N/m is the spring constant

x = 0.3 m is the compression

Substituting in the equation, we get

E=\frac{1}{2} (150) (0.3)^2

E=6.75J

Therefore. the elastic potential energy stored in the spring is 6.75J .

How are scientists able to predict when and where the next eclipse will occur?
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

When the Earth and sun are perfectly lined up, then it will happen. They can tell when it's going to happen.

Explanation:

This is why it only happens in some places. Some days it's not sunny out, so it's not going to happen.

An average hole drift velocity of 103 cm/sec results when 2 V is applied across a 1 cm long semiconductor bar. What is the hole
Helga [31]

Answer:

ε = 2 V/cm

Explanation:

To calculate the mobility inside this bar, we just need to apply the expression that let us determine the mobility. This expression is the following:

ε = ΔV / L

Where:

ε: Hole mobility inside the bar

ΔV: voltage applied in the bar

L: Length of the bar

We already have the voltage and the length so replacing in the above expression we have:

ε = 2 V / 1 cm

<h2>ε = 2 V/cm</h2><h2></h2>

The data of the speed can be used for further calculations, but in this part its not necessary.

Hope this helps
