Answer:

The speed of the stone just before it hits the ground is 18.54 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the stone, u = 8 m/s

The stone is thrown downward from a height of 14 m

We need to find the speed of the stone just before it hits the ground. It can be calculated using third equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2ah

v is the speed of the stone just before it hits the ground

v^2=2ah+u^2

v^2=2\times 10\times 14+(8)^2

v = 18.54 m/s

So, the speed of the stone just before it hits the ground is 18.54 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A wrecking ball of mass 500 kg hangs form a crane by a cable of length 25 mit
Ne4ueva [31]

Given :

A wrecking ball of mass 500 kg hangs form a crane by a cable of length 25 m

this wrecking ball is released from an angle of 40 degrees.

To Find :

The height  from the lowest point of the arc.

Solution :

From the attached image we have to find the value of  h.

So,

cos \ 40^o = \dfrac{L-h}{L}\\\\0.76=\dfrac{25-h}{25}\\\\h = 25( 1- 0.76)\\\\h = 6 \ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

A typical atom has a diameter of about 1.32 x 10-10 m. (a) what is this in inches (b) approximately how many atoms arethere alon
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

A ) 5.197 \times 10 ^{-9} inches

b) There are approximately 100,000,000 atoms on the 1.32 cm lines

Explanation:

To ensure the accuracy of our answer, we will have to make sure we work in the appropriate units.

A

To convert    1.32 \times 10^{-10}   m to inches, we can use this factor.

1 m = 39.3701 inches

Therefore 1.32 \times 10^{-10}   m =  

B

To find the number of atoms on a 1.32 cm line, we will first of all need to convert 1.32 cm to meters.

1.32 cm = 0.0132 metres (divided 1.32 by 100 to convert to metres)

Assuming all the atoms are arranged side by side, with their edges touching on the 0.0132m line, the number of atoms present will be

0.0132/1.32\times 10^{-10} = 100,000,000 atoms

A sled whose total mass with cargo is 30.0 kg rests on ice. The coefficient of static friction is 0.20 and the coefficient of ki
romanna [79]

when sled just start to move the force on the sled will be equal to the static friction

So here we need to find the value of static friction

We know that

m = 30 kg

\mu_s = 0.20

now we know that normal force on the block is counterbalanced by weight of the block

F_n = mg

F_n = 30*9.8

now in order to find the friction force we can use

F_s = \mu_s * F_n

F_s = 0.20 * 30 * 9.8

F_s = 59 N

so it requires 59 N of force to move the sled

How do Leeuwenhoek’s observations of animalcules compare to Hooke’s observations of cells in the cork?
fomenos

Answer:

Robert Hooke

Was the first to use the word "cell"

Observed cork cells

Anton van Leeuwenhoek

Observed "animalcules"

Used polished lens .

Explanation:

Anton van Leeuwenhoek is known as father of microbiology. He is credited to improve the quality of lens in microscope. His first observation of organisms called animalcules.

He is credited to have build microscope that could get magnified by 200 times. He used word animalcules for small organisms from pond water when first observed in microscope. He discovered protozoa and named it animalcules".

Robert Hooke is famed for discovering cell from a cork of plant. He observed a compartment or honey comb like divisions when observed these cork cells under the microscope and named it cell. He was only able to see the cell wall as the cork cells are dead cells.
