Answer:

Fuel cells have a higher efficiency than diesel or gas engines.

Most fuel cells operate silently, compared to internal combustion engines.

Fuel cells can eliminate pollution caused by burning fossil fuels.

In a local diner, a customer slides an empty coffee cup down the counter for a refill. The cup slides off the counter and strike

zysi [14]

a) $t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

b) $v=\frac{d}{\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}}$

c) $v=\sqrt{d^2(\frac{g}{2h})+(2gh)}$

d) $\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{2h}{d})$ (radians)

Explanation:

The motion of the cup sliding off the counter is the motion of a projectile, consisting of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion along the horizontal direction

- A uniformly accelerated motion (free fall) along the vertical direction

The time of flight of the cup is entirely determined by the vertical motion, therefore we can use the suvat equation:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where here:

$s=h$ (the vertical displacement is the height of the counter)

$u=0$ (the initial vertical velocity of the cup is zero)

$a=g$ (the vertical acceleration is the acceleration of gravity)

Solving for t, we find the time of flight of the cup:

$h=0+\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

To solve this part, we just analyze the horizontal motion of the cup.

Here we know that the horizontal motion of the cup is uniform: this means that is horizontal speed is constant during the whole motion, and it is actually equal to the speed at which the mug leaves the counter.

For a uniform motion, the speed is given by

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time taken

Here, the distance covered is $d$ , the distance from the base of the counter, while the time taken is the time of flight:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

Substituting into the previous equation, we find the speed of the mug as it leaves the counter:

$v=\frac{d}{\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}}$

Here we want to find the speed of the cup immediately before it hits the floor.

Here we have to consider that while the mug falls, its vertical speed increases, while the horizontal speed remains constant.

Therefore, the horizontal speed of the cup before it hits the ground is:

$v_x=\frac{d}{\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}}=d\sqrt{\frac{g}{2h}}$

The vertical speed instead is given by the suvat equation:

$v_y=u_y + at$

where:

$u_y=0$ is the initial vertical velocity

$a=g$ is the acceleration

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$ is the time of flight

Substituting,

$v_y = 0 +g(\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}})=\sqrt{2gh}$

The actual speed of the cup just before it hits the floor is the resultant of the horizontal and vertical speeds, so it is:

$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{d^2(\frac{g}{2h})+(2gh)}$

Just before hitting the floor, the velocity of the cup has two components:

$v_x=d\sqrt{\frac{g}{2h}}$ is the horizontal component (in the forward direction)

$v_y=\sqrt{2gh}$ is the vertical component (in the downward direction)

Since the two components are perpendicular to each other, the angle of the direction is given by the equation

$tan \theta = \frac{v_y}{v_x}$

where here $\theta$ is measured as below the horizontal direction.

Substituting the expressions for $v_x,v_y$ , we find:

$tan \theta = \frac{\sqrt{2gh}}{d\sqrt{\frac{g}{2h}}}=\frac{2h}{d}$

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{2h}{d})$ (radians)

Answer - The given statement is false.

Explanation-

The members of knight of labour were opposing strikes and had a belief or boycott or arbitration.

A secret society was formed in 1869 by the tailors in Philadelphia and named Knights of labour. This union Organisation was formed to to get rights over equal pay if work is equal, abolish child labour, Work time of 8 hours and some graduated income tax reforms.

If the trend changed toward traditional (pre-World War II) families, how would that affect women’s rights?

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

If the trend changed toward traditional (pre-World War II) families, the women’s rights are employment in manufacturing sector.

<h3>What is World war?</h3>

The war between two countries to take over each other's kingdom using weapons to kill each other.

Before the world war, the army needs armor, weapons, guns and tanks. Their manufacturing is only possible with many workers to work for long hours. If the men are not enough, then women are given opportunities to work with them.

Thus, the women’s rights are employment in manufacturing sector when trend changed traditional families.

31. Draw a free body diagram for a 15.5N box that is being pushed to the right with a 18. N force while experiencing 4.30 N of r

posledela

Answer:

See answers below

Explanation:

F = mg,

15.5 N = m(9.8 m/s²)

m = 1.58 kg

Fnet = Applied force - resistance,

Fnet = 18 N - 4.30 N,

Fnet = 13.70 N

Fnet = ma

13.70 N = (1.58 kg)a

a = 8.67 m/s²

For the free body diagram, draw a box with an upward arrow labeled 15.5 N, a downward label labeled 15.5 N, a right label labeled 18 N, and a left label labeled 4.30 N.
