If a block of wood dropped from a tall building has attained a velocity of 78.4 m/s how long has it been falling

Gravity adds 9.8 m/s to the speed of a falling object every second.

An object dropped from 'rest' (v = 0) reaches the speed of 78.4 m/s after falling for (78.4 / 9.8) = <em>8.0 seconds</em> .

<u>Note:</u>

In order to test this, you'd have to drop the object from a really high cell- tower, building, or helicopter. After falling for 8 seconds and reaching a speed of 78.4 m/s, it has fallen 313.6 meters (1,029 feet) straight down.

The flat roof of the Aon Center . . . the 3rd highest building in Chicago, where I used to work when it was the Amoco Corporation Building . . . is 1,076 feet above the street.

What is the name given to the initial 150 counts in 2 minutes?

Whitepunk [10]

Divide CFU of Dilution. Divide the CFU of the dilution (the number of colonies you counted) by the result from step 4. For this example, you work out 46 ÷ 1/1000, which is the same as 46 x 1,000. The result is 46,000 CFU in the original sample.

PLSLPSLLPSLPSLPS HELP I ONLY HAVE 5 MINS PLEASE

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

0.19m/s²

Explanation:

Initial velocity(u) = 50×1000/60×60

=13.88 m/s

Final velocity(v) = 36.5×1000/60×60

=10.13 m/s

Acceleration(a) = v-u/t

=10.13-13.88/19.5

a= -0.19m/s²

-a = 0.19m/s²

The magnitude of retar dation is 0.19m/s²

For a particular casting setup, the top of the sprue has a diameter of 0.030 m, and its length is 0.200 m. The volume flow rate

faust18 [17]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter=0.030 m

Length of sprue= $h_1$ =0.200 m

Metal volume flow rate,Q=0.03 $m^3/min$

Q= $\frac{0.03}{60}=5\times 10^{-4}m^3/s$ because 1 minute=60 seconds

Let 1 for the top and 2 for the bottom

$d_=0.030 m$

$h_2=0$

$A_1=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}=\frac{3.14\times (0.030)^2}{4}$

$A_1=7.065\times 10^{-4} m^2$

$v_1=\frac{Q}{A_1}=\frac{5\times 10^{-4}}{7.065\times 10^{-4}}$

$v_1=0.708 m/s$

Pressure at the top and bottom of the sprue is atmospheric

$h_1+\frac{v^2_1}{2g}=h_2+\frac{v^2_2}{2g}$

Substitute the values

$0.2+\frac{(0.708)^2}{2\cdot 9.8}=0+\frac[v^2_2}{2\cdot 9.8}$

$v^2_2=2\cdot 9.8\cdot \frac{0.2\cdot 9.8\cdot 2+0.501264}{2\cdot 9.8}=4.421264$

$v_2=\sqrt{4.421264}=2.1 m/s$

$Q=A_2v_2$

$5\times 10^{-4}=A_2\times 2.1$

$A_2=\frac{5\times 10^{-4}}{2.1}=2.381\times 10^{-4} m^2$

Reynolds number= $\frac{v_2D\rho}{\eta}$

$\eta=0.004 N.s/m^2$

$\rho=2700 kg/m^3$

Substitute the values then we get

Reynolds number= $\frac{2.1\times 0.03\times 2700}{0.004}$

Reynolds number=42525

The Reynolds number is greater than 4000 .Therefore, the flow is turbulent.
