You are climbing in the High Sierra when you suddenly find yourself at the edge of a fog-shrouded cliff. To find the height of t

his cliff, you drop a rock from the top; 8.60 s later you hear the sound of the rock hitting the ground at the foot of the cliff.Part AIgnoring air resistance, how high is the cliff if the speed of sound is 330 m/s?Suppose you had ignored the time it takes the sound to reach you. In that case, would you have overestimated or underestimated the height of the cliff?a. underestimatedb. overestimated

Answer:

Height with sound ignored = Gravity x Time taken = 9.8 x 8.60 = 84.28 meters

Time taken by the sound = 84.28/330 = 0.255 seconds

Height with sound involved = (84.28 x 0.255) + 84.28 = 105.80 meters

a. Underestimated

A yo-yo of mass M has an axle of radius b and a spool of radius R. Its moment of inertia can be taken to be MR2/2 and the thickn
kow [346]

Answer:

The tension in the cord is T=\frac{MR^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2}  }

Explanation:

Given:

M = mass

b = radius

R = spool of radius

The equation is:

bT=(\frac{MR^{2} }{2} )(\frac{a}{b} )\\T=\frac{MR^{2}a }{2b^{2} } (eq. 1)

The sum of forces in y:

∑Fy = Mg - T = Ma

Mg=(M+\frac{MR^{2} }{2b^{2} }  )a\\a=\frac{2b^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2}  }

Replacing in eq. 1

T=\frac{MR^{2} }{2b^{2} } (\frac{2b^{2}g }{2b^{2} +R^{2} } )\\T=\frac{MR^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2}  }

Which kind of force do you exert on an object when you pull it toward you?
jarptica [38.1K]

By definition we have to:

Applied force: It is the external force that acts directly on a body.

Therefore, we can say that if you have an object and push it towards yourself, you are exerting an external force on the object.

This external force was not acting on the object previously, therefore, it is a force that you are applying at that moment.

Answer:

you exert an Applied Force on an object when you pull it towards you

A. Applied Force

If a receiver is overly selective:
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

C) only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results.

Explanation:

Selectivity is the ability of a receiver to respond only to a specific signal on a wanted frequency and reject other signals nearby in frequency.

If a receiver is overly selective, only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results. Whereas, if a receiver is underselective, the receiver can pick different signals on different frequencies at the same time.

How many excess electrons must be present on each sphere if the magnitude of the force of repulsion between them is 4.57×10−21 n
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

891 excess electrons must be present on each sphere

Explanation:

One Charge = q1 = q

Force = F = 4.57*10^-21 N  

Other charge = q2 =q

Distance = r = 20 cm = 0.2 m  

permittivity of free space = eo =8.854×10−12 C^2/ (N.m^2)  

Using Coulomb's law,

F=[1/4pieo]q1q2/r^2

F = [1/4pieo]q^2 / r^2

q^2 =F [4pieo]r^2

q =  r*sq rt F[4pieo]

 q=0.2* sq rt[ 4.57 x 10^-21]*[4*3.1416*8.854*10^-12]

q = 1.42614*10^ -16 C

number of electrons = n = q/e=1.42614*10^ -16 /1.6*10^-19

n =891

 891 excess electrons must be present on each sphere
