Geological evidence based on several radiometric techniques has provided a scientifically well-accepted age for the Earth. Repre

sent that age of the Earth as the 100-yard length of a football field, and any time interval can be represented as some distance on the field. (So something that lasted one-tenth of the age of the Earth would be ten yards, and something that lasted one-half of the age of the Earth would be fifty yards.) On this scale, the time from when dinosaur extinction made space for large mammals, until today, would be represented by how far on the football field?
a. A little over 1 yard.
b. Over 90 yards.
c. 60 yards.
d. Over 80 yards.
e. 50 yards.

Verdich [7]

Answer:

a)54L/min

b)0.845

Explanation:

a) A x V=A_1V_1+ A_2V_2+A_3V_3

where suffix 1,2,3 refers to the three pipes.

            =27L/min+16L/min+11 L/min

            =54L/min

b) A x V=54L/min => \frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v

   d= 2 cm

\frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v = 54

v= \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{54}{2^2}

-> A_1 x V_1=27L/min => \frac{\pi }{4} d_1^2 x v_1

d_1= 1.3cm

\frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v_1 = 27

v_1= \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{27}{1.3^2}

Next is to find the ratio of speed i.e \frac{v}{v_1}

\frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{54}{2^2} / \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{27}{1.3^2} => \frac{54}{27} \frac{1.3^2}{2^2}

\frac{v}{v_1}= 0.845

A suspension bridge has twin towers that are 1300 feet apart. Each tower extends 180 feet above the road surface. The cables are
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

y = 17.04 ft

Explanation:

Since the cable touches the road at the mid point of two towers

so here we have vertex at that mid point taken to be origin

now the maximum height on the either side is given as

y = 180 ft

horizontal distance of the tower from mid point is given as

x = \frac{1300}{2} = 650 ft

now from the equation of parabola we have

y = k x^2

180 = k(650^2)

k = 4.26 \times 10^{-4}

now we have

y = (4.26 \times 10^{-4})x^2

now we need to find the height at distance of 200 ft from center

so we have

y = (4.26 \times 10^{-4})(200^2)

y = 17.04 ft

Two equally charged tiny spheres of mass 1.0 g are placed 2.0 cm apart. When released, they begin to accelerate away from each o
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is 0.135 μC

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 1.0

Distance = 2.0 cm

Acceleration = 414 m/s²

We need to calculate the magnitude of charge

Using newton's second law

F= ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

Put the value of F

a=\dfrac{kq^2}{mr^2}

Put the value into the formula

414=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times q^2}{1.0\times10^{-3}\times(2.0\times10^{-2})^2}

q^2=\dfrac{414\times1.0\times10^{-3}\times(2.0\times10^{-2})^2}{9\times10^{9}}

q^2=1.84\times10^{-14}

q=0.135\times10^{-6}\ C

q=0.135\ \mu C

Hence, The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is 0.135μC.
