We can use 3rd equation of motion to find the velocity of the stone just before it strikes the ground.

Height = S = 318 meters
Acceleration = a= 9.8 m/s²
Initial velocity = u = 0
Final velocity = v = ?

According to the 3rd equation of motion:

2aS = v² - u²

2(9.8)(318)=v²

v²=6232.8

⇒

v = 78.95 m/s

So, the velocity rounded of to nearest integer will be 79 meters per second.

Thus, C option is the correct answer

Answer:

Copper

Explanation:

Capacitance is directly proportional to dielectric constant

Aluminium and zinc are highly reactive and have high dielectric contact.

Copper has less dielectric constant hence capacitance will decrease

A sled of mass m is being pulled horizontally by a constant horizontal force of magnitude F. The coefficient of kinetic friction
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The average velocity of the sled is vavg = s/t.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The average velocity is calculated as the traveled distance over time:

vavg = Δx/Δt

Where:

vavg = average velocity.

Δx = traveled distance.

Δt = elapsed time.

We already know the traveled distance (s) and also know the time it takes the sled to travel that distance (t). Then, the average velocity can be calculated as follows:

vavg = s/t

Have a nice day!

If the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s and the wavelength of this note is 2.62 m, what is the frequency of this C3 note? (Round
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

<em>The frequency of of the note = 131 Hz.</em>

Explanation:

<em>Frequency:</em><em> Frequency can be defined as the number of complete oscillation completed by a wave in one seconds. The S.I unit of frequency is Hertz ( Hz)</em>

v = λf ............................ Equation 1

Making f the subject of the equation,

f = v/λ .......................... Equation 2

Where v = Speed, λ = wavelength, f = frequency

<em>Given: v = 343 m/s, λ = 2.62 m.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 2</em>

<em>f = 343/2.62</em>

<em>f = 131 Hz</em>

<em>Thus the frequency of of the note = 131 Hz.</em>

Cora, an electrician, wraps a copper wire with a thick plastic coating. What is she most likely trying to do?
alukav5142 [94]
The correct answer among the choices given is the last option. Cora wrapping the copper wire with a thick plastic coating keeps a current from passing out a wire. The plastic wire here serves as an insulator. An insulator is a material that prevents electricity or current to flow out the circuit. In order to lessen the loss of energy.
