A physics teacher performing an outdoor demonstration suddenly falls from rest off a high cliff and simultaneously shouts "Help.

" When she has fallen for 3.0 s, she hears the echo of her shout from the valley floor below. The speed of sound is 340 m/s. (a) How tall is the cliff? (b) If we ignore air resistance, how fast will she be moving just before she hits the ground? (Her actual speed will be less than this, due to air resistance.)

Answer:

532.0725 m

102.17270893 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = g

H = Height of cliff

Distance traveled in 3 seconds

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 3^2\\\Rightarrow s=44.145\ m

Distance traveled by sound = 2H-44.145 m

2H-44.145=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2H-44.145=340\times 3\\\Rightarrow H=\dfrac{340\times 3+44.145}{2}\\\Rightarrow H=532.0725\ m

The height of the cliff is 532.0725 m

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 532.0725+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=102.17270893\ m/s

Her speed just before she hits the ground is 102.17270893 m/s

A charge alters the space around it. What is this alteration of space called?
iogann1982 [59]

Answer: electric field

Explanation: when a charge is placed in space, it alters the space around it by creating an electric field.

This electric field has the ability to exert a force (f) on any test charge(q) placed within this vicinity.

This is the reason why a charge can either attract or repel another charge.

What would happen to the earth without carbon dioxide
HACTEHA [7]

The ability for CO2 to warm the surface of a planet through the absorption of infrared radiation is well known.  What is much less appreciated, however, is just how effective of a gas it is in maintaining the greenhouse framework that helps to characterize the modern climate.

What is the Validity measures of a basketball bouncing
kykrilka [37]

This study was aimed at testing the construct validity of the basketball basic motion skills test instrument (ITK GDBB). The research used descriptive method of 3 basketball experts in the city of Cimahi; 3 experts are the expert in basketball. The instrument used was the ITB GDBB developed by Silvy (2019) consisting of top passing, bottom passing, top service, bottom service, chest passing, bounding passing, overhead passing, and leading ball (dribbling). This instrument consists of 76 items that cover 4 domains in basketball, namely chest pass, overhead pass, bound pass, and dribbling. The validity method used the construct validity of different power types. For the reliability method, it used the Kuder Ricardson (KR) and Objectivity analysis. The results of the construct validity analysis of a total of 76 items show that the score is ranged from 0.67 to 1.00. The construct validity value of 71 items in the basketball game is in the high category (= 1.00), 5 items are in the sufficient category, the relativity score is ranged from 0.75 to 0.98, and the objectivity score is ranged from 0.89 to 0.95. The conclusion is that this test instrument can be used as a standardized basic motion skill test for standardized large ball games for validity in basic motion skills in basketball games for grade VII junior high school students.
