A stone is dropped from rest from the top of a building. It takes Δt = 2.2 s for it to reach the ground.

Physics
1 answer:
NeTakaya3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Value of magnitude of acceleration will be 9.8m/sec^2

Explanation:

It is given that when a stone is dropped it takes 2.2 sec to reach the ground

(a) As the stone is dropped from the top of building

So its initial velocity u_i will be 0 m /sec

(b) As the stone is free falling and there is no external force applied on it so its acceleration will be equal to acceleration due to gravity

So value of magnitude of acceleration will be equal to 9.8m/sec^2

The coefficient of linear expansion of steel is 12 × 10-6 K-1 . What is the change in length of a 25-m steel bridge span when it
Westkost [7]

Answer:

0.012-m

Explanation:

∆L = α × Lo × (T-To)

α is the coefficient of linear expansion = 12 × 10-6 K-1

Lo = Initial length = 25-m

∆L = Change in length

(T-To) = 40 K

∆L = 12 × 10-6 × 25 × 40

∆L = 0.012-m

First, you will investigate purely vertical motion. The kinematics equation for vertical motion (ignoring air resistance) is giv
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

2.85 s .

Explanation:

y(t) = y(0) + v₀t + 1/2 gt²

y(t) is vertical displacement , y(0) is initial position , v₀ is initial velocity and t is time required to make vertical displacement and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Here  y(0) is zero , v₀ = 14 m/s , g = 9.8 m s⁻² , y(t ) = 0 , as the pumpkin after time t comes back to its initial position, that is ground .

We shall take v₀ as negative as it is in upward direction and g as positive as it acts in downward direction

Put the values in the equation above,

0 = 0 - 14t + 1/2 x 9.8 t²

14 t = 1/2 x 9.8 t²

t = 28 / 9.8

t = 2.85 s .

This chart lists four examples of two objects that are in contact.
Oxana [17]

Before coming into conclusion first we have to understand the direction of heat flow.

Heat is the transferred thermal energy from one body to another body due to the temperature difference just like water flows from higher level to lower level.

Whenever two bodies having different temperature come closer to each other heat will flow from hotter body to cooler one if no external work is done. The heat flow may be through any of the ways i.e conduction,radiation or convection. Hence temperature difference is the parameter which gives the direction of heat flow.

The temperature is also considered as a measure of average kinetic energy of the substance.The thermal energy does not give the direction heat flow. Heat may  flow from the body  having low thermal energy but at higher temperature to the body having higher thermal energy but at low temperature. The reverse does not happen naturally .

In example 1 there is fire and air. Obviously fire is at high temperature and air at low temperature.So heat will flow from object 1 to object 2.

In example 2 there is a metal at 80 degree Celsius and another metal at 12 degree Celsius .So heat will flow from object 1 to object 2

In example 3 we have cooler ocean and warm air. So the heat will flow from object 2 to object 1.

In example 4 we have a tool with high thermal energy and a material with little thermal energy.We already know that thermal energy can not determine the direction of heat flow. Here the temperature of each substance is not given.The kinetic energy is  part of thermal energy.So there is the chance of higher kinetic energy of the tool for having higher thermal energy .At that time the heat will flow object 1 to object 2.Otherwise the reverse will occur. So it is a special case.

As per the question only option 4 is correct which tells that heat will flow from object 1 to object 2 in examples 1,2,4, and heat will flow from object 2 to 1 in example 3. Other options violate the fundamental law of thermodynamics.

Suppose astronomers built a 20-meter telescope. How much greater would its light-collecting area be than that of the 10-meter Ke
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

4 times greater

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Calculate light-collecting area of a  20-meter telescope (A₁) by using area of a circle.

Area of circle = π*r² =\frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}

Where d is the diameter of the circle = 20-m

A_{1} = \frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}

A_{1} = \frac{\pi (20^{2})}{4}

A₁ = 314.2 m²

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate light-collecting area of a  10-meter Keck telescope (A₂)

A_{2} = \frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}

Where d is the diameter of the circle = 10-m

A_{2} = \frac{\pi (10^{2})}{4}

A₂ = 78.55 m²

<u>Step 3</u>: divide A₁ by A₂  

= \frac{314.2 m^2}{78.55 m^2}

= 4

Therefor,  the 20-meter telescope light-collecting area would be 4 times greater than that of the 10-meter Keck telescope.
