Two stones are thrown vertically upward from the ground, one with three times the initial speed of the other. (a) If the faster

stone takes 10 s to return to the ground, how long will it take the slower stone to return? (b) If the slower stone reaches a maximum height of H, how high (in terms of H) will the faster stone go? Assume free fall.

Answer:

t₁ = 3.33s, h = 9 H

Explanation:

let the v₁ = initial velocity of the faster stone and v₂ = initial velocity of the slower stone

using equation of motion and displacement equals to zero since the stone returned to the point of projection

y - y₀ =  v₁ t - 1/2gt²

- v₁ t  = - 1/2gt²

2v₁ t / t² = g

g = 2v₁ / t

repeat the same produce for the slower stone where the time =   t₁

y-y₀ =  v₂t₁ - 1/2 gt₁²

- v₂t₁ = - 1/2 gt₁²

t₁ = 2v₂ / g = 2v₂ / (2v₁ / t) = (2v₂ / 2v₁) × t

and

v₁  = 3v₂

t₁ = (2v₂ / 2v₁) × t  = (v₂ / 3v₂) × 10 = 3.33 s

b) using the equation of motion

vf₂² = v₂² - 2gH

since the body stop momentarily at maximum height

- v₂²  = - 2gH

v₂²  / 2H = g

repeating the same procedure for the faster stone

vf₁² = v₁² - 2gh

- v₁² =  - 2gh

v₁²/ 2g = h

substitute for g

h = v₁² / 2(v₂²  / 2H ) = (v₁² / v₂²) × H = (3v₂)² / (v₂² ) × H = 9H

A skier moving at 4.75 m/s encounters a long, rough, horizontal patch of snow having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.220
disa [49]
First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force, \mu m g. For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:
ma=-\mu m g
Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:
a=-(0.220)(9.81 m/s^2)=-2.16 m/s^2

Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:
2aS=v_f^2-v_i^2
where v_f=0 is the final speed of the skier and v_i=4.75 m/s is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
S=- \frac{v_i^2}{2a}=- \frac{(4.75 m/s)^2}{2(-2.16 m/s^2)}=5.23 m

A real heat engine operates between temperatures tc and th. during a certain time, an amount qc of heat is released to the cold
tino4ka555 [31]

q_{c} = Heat released to cold reservoir

q_{h} = Heat released to hot reservoir

W_{max} = maximum amount of work

t_{c} = temperature of cold reservoir

t_{h} = temperature of hot reservoir

we know that

\frac{q_{c}}{q_{h}}=\frac{t_{c}}{t_{h}}

q_{h} = (\frac{t_{h}}{t_{c}})q_{c}                                eq-1

maximum work is given as

W_{max} = q_{h} - q_{c}

using eq-1

W_{max} =  (\frac{t_{h}}{t_{c}})q_{c} - q_{c}

During oxidation-reduction reactions, a material loses electrons to the oxidizer, which has a positive charge. Which power sourc
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

D. Battery

During the oxidation-reduction(redox) reaction, there is always flow of electrons from one point to another. The electrons are then converted to power through the battery which converts chemical energy to electrical energy. If there is zero flow of electrons then there will also be zero power.

Earth's gravitational field is strongest at _______.
Serga [27]
Earth's gravity is stronger at the poles than the equator for two reasons: The centrifugal "force" cancels out the gravity minimally, more so at the equator than at the poles.
