Answer:

Thermal Pollution

Explanation:

Thermal pollution is a <em>term</em> use to describe the <u>final result caused from the  water used as a coolant by power plants and/or industrial companies</u>.<em> It changes the water temperature and its quality. It is usually caused from humans or companies especially manufacturing companies - They use it for their personal needs. The end product of the water after being discarded is Thermal Pollution</em>

A pebble is dropped from rest from the top of a tall cliff and falls 53.4 m after 3.3 s has elapsed. How much farther does it dr
jeka94

Answer:

426.84 m

Explanation:

initial velocity u = 0

time t = 3.3 s

distance travelled s = 53.4 m

acceleration due to gravity = g

s = ut + 1/2 g t²

53.4 = 0 + 1/2 g x 3.3²

g = 9.8 m /s²

For the whole length of fall

distance travelled = h

total time = 6.6 + 3.3 = 9.9 s

h = ut + 1/2 g t²

u again = 0

h = .5 x 9.8 x 9.9²

= 480.24 m

distance travelled in last 6.6 s

= 480.24 - 53.4

= 426.84 m

The frequency of a wave is 200 Hz. The wavelength is 0.1 m. What is the period of the wave?
Aleks04 [339]
The formula for the period of wave is: wave period is equals to 1 over the frequency.waveperiod=\frac{1}{frequency}
To get the value of period of wave you need to divide 1 by 200 Hz. However, beforehand, you have to convert 200 Hz to cycles per second. So that would be, 200 cyles per second or 200/s.
By then, you can start the computation by dividing 1 by 200/s. Since 200/s is in fractional form, you have to find its reciprocal form and multiply it to one which would give you 1 (one) second over 200. This would then lead us to the value 0.005 seconds as the wave period.

wave period= 1/200 Hz
Convert Hz to cycles per second first
200 Hz x 1/s= 200/second
Make 200/second as your divisor, so:

wave period= 1/ 200/s

get the reciprocal form of 200/s which is s/200

then you can start the actual computation:

wave period= 1 x s divided by 200

this would give us an answer of 0.005 s.

slader Question: A Model Rocket Is Launched Straight Upward With An Initial Speed Of 50m/s. Iit Accelerates With A Constant Upwa
xenn [34]

Answer:

Maximum height reached by the rocket is

y_{max} = 308 m

total time of the motion of rocket is given as

T = 16.44 s

Explanation:

Initial speed of the rocket is given as

v_i = 50 m/s

acceleration of the rocket is given as

a = 2 m/s^2

engine stops at height h = 150 m

so the final speed of the rocket at this height is given as

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

v_f^2 - 50^2 = 2(2)(150)

v_f = 55.68 m/s

so maximum height reached by the rocket is given as the height where its final speed becomes zero

so we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0 - 55.68^2 = 2(-9.81)(y - 150)

y_{max} = 308 m

Now the total time of the motion of rocket is given as

1) time to reach the height of 150 m

v_f - v_i = at

55.68 - 50 = 2 t

t_1 = 2.84 s

2) time to reach ground from this height

\Delta y = v_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

-150 = 55.68 t - \frac{1}{2}(9.81) t^2

t_2 = 13.6 s

so total time of the motion of rocket is given as

T = 13.6 + 2.84 = 16.44 s
