30C/20min = 30C/1200sec

= 0.025 C/sec

= 0.025 Ampere of current.

I can't imagine where you got this question, and I'd very much like to know.

It says it's describing a lightning bolt, but it's got the current about a million times too small, and the time at least a million times too long. Also, the voltage doesn't matter, but it's also in the neighborhood of a million times too small for lightning. It's actually more like 108 volts FOR EVERY FOOT OF DISTANCE between the cloud and the ground.

Can someone please help me with this question?

The answer is B because, the farther the goes the speed starts to decrease and stops it depends on the frequency of the wave.

Your spaceship lands on an unknown planet. To determine the characteristics of this planet, you drop a wrench from 5.00 m above
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

g = 15.5 m/s²

Explanation:

In order to find the acceleration due to gravity near the surface of this planet can be calculated by using 2nd equation of motion. The 2nd equation of motion is given as:

h = Vi t + (0.5)gt²

where,

h = height covered by the wrench = 5 m

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

t = Time Taken to hit the ground = 0.804 s

g = acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet = ?

Therefore,

5 m = (0 m/s)(0.804 s) + (0.5)(g)(0.804 s)²

g = (5 m)/(0.3232 s²)

<u>g = 15.5 m/s²</u>

Complete the paragraph to compare Uranus and Neptune.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Uranus and Neptun are outer planets od the Solar system, since they are located after the asteroid belt. All of these outer planets are much larger then the inner ones so they are called the "ice giants". The other reason for this name is that they are very far from the Sun, so their temperature is low. Another feature they have in common is their atmosphere which is composed of gases, including methane, which is responsible for their blue color, since methane absorbs red light. However Neptune is known for very fast winds and storms in its atmosphere which is responsible for its high activity and changes.

So, the blanks should be filled with:

Sun

methane

Neptune

outer planets

A ball rolls horizontally off a table and a height of 1.4 m with a speed of 4 m/s. How long does it take the ball to reach the g
Hitman42 [59]

For vertical motion, use the following kinematics equation:

H(t) = X + Vt + 0.5At²

H(t) is the height of the ball at any point in time t for t ≥ 0s

X is the initial height

V is the initial vertical velocity

A is the constant vertical acceleration

Given values:

X = 1.4m

V = 0m/s (starting from free fall)

A = -9.81m/s² (downward acceleration due to gravity near the earth's surface)

Plug in these values to get H(t):

H(t) = 1.4 + 0t - 4.905t²

H(t) = 1.4 - 4.905t²

We want to calculate when the ball hits the ground, i.e. find a time t when H(t) = 0m, so let us substitute H(t) = 0 into the equation and solve for t:

1.4 - 4.905t² = 0

4.905t² = 1.4

t² = 0.2854

t = ±0.5342s

Reject t = -0.5342s because this doesn't make sense within the context of the problem (we only let t ≥ 0s for the ball's motion H(t))

t = 0.53s
