Answer:

<h2>a) Vertical speed when it leaves the ground is 7 m/s</h2><h2>b) Kangaroo is in air for 1.43 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Initial velocity, u = ?

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²  

Final velocity, v = 0 m/s  

Displacement, s = 2.50 m

Substituting  

v² = u² + 2as

0² = u² + 2 x -9.81 x 2.50

u = 7 m /s

Vertical speed when it leaves the ground is 7 m/s

b)  We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 7 m/s

        Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²  

        Displacement, s = 0 m   --- Time is calculating for returning to ground    

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      0 = 7 x t + 0.5 x -9.81 x t²

                      t = 1.43 seconds

Kangaroo is in air for 1.43 seconds.

Define the unit of current. Name the device which is used to measure
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

The ampere, symbol A, is the SI unit of electric current. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the elementary charge e to be 1.602 176 634 x 10-19 when expressed in the unit C, which is equal to A s, where the second is defined in terms of ΔνCs.

the device used to measure current in a circuit is ammeter

The elementary particle called a muon is unstable and decays in about 2.20μs2.20μs , as observed in its rest frame, into an elec
vredina [299]

Answer:

5.865 μs

Explanation:

t₀ = Time taken to decay a muon = 2.20 μs

c = Speed of Light in vacuum = 3×10⁸ m/s

v = Velocity of muon = 0.927 c

t = Lifetime observed

Time dilation

t=\frac{t_0}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2.2\times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.927c)^2}{c^2}}}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2.2\times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{1-0.927^2}}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2.2\times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{0.140671}}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2.2\times 10^{-6}}{0.3750}\\\Rightarrow t=5.865\times 10^{-6}\ seconds

∴Lifetime observed for muons approaching at 0.927 the speed of light is 5.865 μs

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!
cluponka [151]

I would say Anthony has more power than Angel. If they are both exerting the same force on the box, which isnt really mentioned here, which is why I believe this is a bit vague, then the both do the same work. So, if the work is equal then the person with the lower time period would have more power. Since Anthony only took 38 seconds, compared to Angel's 42 I would say that Anthony has more power than Angel.

The orbital period of a satellite is 2 × 106 s and its total radius is 2.5 × 1012 m. The tangential speed of the satellite, writ
LenaWriter [7]

The orbital period of the satellite[T] is given as 2*10^{6} S.

The radius of the satellite is given [R] 2.5*10^{12} m.

we are asked here to calculate the tangential speed of the satellite.

Before going to get the solution first we have understand the tangential speed.

The tangential speed of a satellite is given as the speed required to keep the satellite along the orbit. If satellite speed is less than tangential speed,there is the chance of it falling down towards earth. If it is more,then it will deviate from it orbit and can't stick to the orbit further.In a simple way  the tangential speed is the linear speed of an object in a circular path.

Now we have to calculate the tangential speed [V].

Mathematically the tangential speed [V]   written as -

                                V=\frac{2\pi R}{T}

where T is the time period of the satellite and R is the radius of the satellite.

                        V=\frac{2*3.14*10^{12} }{2*10^{6} }

                               = 7.85*10^{6} m/s

There is also another way through which we can get  the solution as explained below-

We know that the tangential speed of a satellite V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R^{2} } }

where G is the gravitational constant and M is the mas of central object.

But we know that g=\frac{GM}{R^{2} }

                               ⇒GM=gR^{2}  where g is the acceleration due to gravity of that central object.


Hence    V=\sqrt{\frac{gR^{2} }{R} }

               ⇒   V=\sqrt{gR}

By knowing the value of g due to that central object we can also calculate its tangential speed.
