Time taken to reach water :

t = \dfrac{D}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{6.78}{8.06}\ s\\\\t=0.84\ s

Now, initial vertical speed , u = 0 m/s.

By equation of motion :

h = ut +\dfrac{at^2}{2}

Here, a = g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

So,

h = 0(t) +\dfrac{9.8\times 0.84^2}{2}\\\\h=3.46\ m

Therefore, the height of the bridge is 3.46 m.

Hence, this is the required solution.

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

2 m = E / c^2      where m is mass of electron

E = h v     where v is the frequency ( nu) of the incident photon

E = h c / y      where y is the incident wavelength (lambda)

2 m = h / (c y)

y = h / (2 m c)      wavelength required

y = 6.62 * 10E-34 / (2 * 9.1 * 10E-31 * 3 * 10E8)  m

y = 3.31 / 27.3 E-11 m

y = 1.21 E -12 m   = .0121 Angstrom units

Why is it safe to watch an eclipse of the Moon but not an eclipse of the Sun
gavmur [86]
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon crosses in front of the Sun, blocking some or all of its rays. A lunar eclipse happens when the moon is directly behind the earth, blocking the moon from receiving light. The only light comes from the light on earth's reflected shadow.

You can look at a lunar eclipse because there is very little light or none at all. You can't look at a solar eclipse because you are looking directly at the sun unless it is complete. Before totality, only some of the Sun is blocked, causing your pupils dilate to let in more light. Since they do this, more of the Sun's rays can be let in to the eye, which effectively allows your eyes to burn. 

Some doctors and eye care specialists say that after someone complains of blindness after looking at a solar eclipse unaided, they can see what the Sun and moon looked like at the time that they looked at it, as it is burned onto their retinas.

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

18 radians

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Torque = Force × Moment arm

= 1N × 1M

= 1N-M

Torque = I\alpha

\alpha = \frac{torque}{I}\\\\= \frac{1}{100}\\\\= 0.01 rad/s^2

Now

\theta = w_ot + \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2\\\\w_o = 0\\\\\theta = 0 \times 60 + \frac{1}{2} \times 0.01 \times 60^2\\\\= 18\ radians

Here t = 1 minutes = 60 seconds

I got the correct answer, but I don't know what I did. Why is the answer E?
MariettaO [177]

Explanation:

Displacement is the straight line distance from the starting position to the final position.

Person X walks halfway around circle.  So her displacement is 100 m.

Person Y walks 3/4 of the way around.  So his displacement is 50√2 m ≈ 70.7 m.

Person Z walks completely around the circle, so their displacement is 0 m.

Therefore:

Z < Y < X
