Answer: a) 11.76 m/s b) 7.056 m
Explanation:
The described situation is as follows:
An object is dropped from the top of a tower and when measuring the time it takes to reach the ground that turns out to be 0.02 minutes.
This situation is related to free fall, this also means we have constant acceleration, hence the equations we will use are:
(1)
(2)
Where:
Is the final velocity of the object
Is the initial velocity of the object (it was dropped)
is the acceleration due gravity
is the height of the tower
is the time it takes to the object to reach the ground
b) Begining with (1):
(3)
(4)
(5) This is the final velocity of the object
a) Substituting (5) in (2):
(6)
Clearing
:
(7)
(8) This is the height of the tower
Answer:
Whats the question/word problem or where is the graph (if included) representing this problem?
Local winds are driven by temperature differences in areas fairly close to each other. If water and land absorbed and released heat at the same rate, there wouldn't be any temperature differences and nothing to power local winds. See the related link for further information.
Answer:
(a) 43.2 kC
(b) 0.012V kWh
(c) 0.108V cents
Explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- i = current flow = 3 A
- t = time interval for which the current flow =

- V = terminal voltage of the battery
- R = rate of energy = 9 cents/kWh
<u>Assume:</u>
- Q = charge transported as a result of charging
- E = energy expended
- C = cost of charging
Part (a):
We know that the charge flow rate is the electric current flow through a wire.

Hence, 43.2 kC of charge is transported as a result of charging.
Part (b):
We know the electrical energy dissipated due to current flow across a voltage drop for a time interval is given by:

Hence, 0.012V kWh is expended in charging the battery.
Part (c):
We know that the energy cost is equal to the product of energy expended and the rate of energy.

Hence, 0.108V cents is the charging cost of the battery.
