b. is equally as toxic as carbon monoxide (CO).

Explanation:

Hydrogen Cyanide is a product of combustion that is equally as toxic as carbon monoxide CO.

The gas is a product of combustion in blast furnances, coke ovens, e.t.c

  • Just like carbon monoxide, they are blood agents that are toxic in the body
  • Prolonged exposure to hydrogen cyanide can lead to death eventually.
  • The gas is a able to produce cyanide ion that seriously impacts the process of cellular respiration and bringing it to a halt.
  • It is listed as one of the dangerous chemical weapons.

A gang of robbers is escaping across city roofs at night. They come to the edge of one building and need to drop down to their g
REY [17]

Answer:

a) They will hit the ground with a speed of 19.6 m/s.

b) They are at a height of 20 m.

c) It is not a safe jump.

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The equations of height and velocity in function of time of a free falling body are the following:

h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

h = height of the object at time t.

h0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering downward as negative direction).

v = velocity of the object at time t.

Using the equation of velocity, let's find the velocity at which they will hit the ground. The pebble is dropped (initial velocity = 0) and it takes 2 s to reach the ground:

v = v0 + g · t     (v0 = 0)

v = g · t

v = -9.8 m/s² · 2.0 s

v = -19.6 m/s

They will hit the ground with a speed of 19.6 m/s.

b)Now, we have to use the equation of height:

h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

If we place the origin of the frame of reference on the ground, we have to find the initial height (h0) knowing that at t = 2.0 s, h = 0 m

0 m = h0 - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (2.0 s)²

h0 = 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (2.0 s)²

h0 = 20 m

They are at a height of 20 m.

c)According to a NASA paper (Issues on Human Acceleration Tolerance After Long-Duration Space Flights, figure 10), if you fall with a vertical velocity greater than 17 m/s it is unlikely that you will survive. So, it is not a safe jump.

Two guitarists attempt to play the same note of wavelength 6.48 cmcm at the same time, but one of the instruments is slightly ou
k0ka [10]

The answer is λ₂ = 6.48 cm or  6.52 cm.

The out-of-tune guitar may have a wavelength between "6.48 cm" and "6.52 cm."

fb = |f2 − f1|

f₁ = 343/0.064

= 5276Hz

f₂ = 5276.9 Hz ± 17 Hz

f₂ = 5293.9 Hz or 5259.9 Hz

Now, calculating the possible wavelengths:

λ = 343/ 5259.9  or 343/ 5293.9

λ₂ = 6.48 cm or 6.52 cm

<h3>Why is beat frequency important?</h3>

When two waves with almost identical frequencies traveling in the same direction collide at a certain location, beats are produced. The opposing beneficial and harmful disruption causes the sound to alternatively be loud and weak whenever two sound waves with different frequencies reach your ear. This is referred to as beating.

The entire value of the frequency difference between the two waves is the beat frequency.

The following formula yields the beat frequency:

fb = |f2 − f1|

A ball is dropped off the roof of a tall building. If the ball reaches the ground in 8 seconds, how tall is the building, in met
Ghella [55]

Let <em>b</em> be the height of the building, and <em>y</em> the height of the ball at time <em>t</em>, given by

<em>y</em> = <em>b</em> - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²

where <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

It takes the ball 8 s to reach the ground, at which point <em>y</em> = 0, so that

0 = <em>b</em> - 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

<em>b</em> = 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

<em>b</em> = 313.6 m
