Ksenya-84 [330]3 years ago

Explanation:

It is given that,

A ball hits the ground at 40 m/s

Let h is the height from where you drop a ball. It is based on the conservation of energy as :

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\\\text{Putting all the values in above formula}\\\\h=\dfrac{40^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\\h=81.63\ m

It is dropped from a height of 81.63 m.

Let it take t seconds to hit the ground. When it hits the ground, its final speed, v = 0 and u = 40 m/s. So,

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\t=(\dfrac{2h}{g})^{1/2}\\\\t=(\dfrac{2\times 81.63}{9.8})^{1/2}\\\\t=4.08\ s

So, it will take 4.08 seconds to hit the ground.

A 300 g glass thermometer initially at 23 ◦C is put into 236 cm3 of hot water at 87 ◦C. Find the final temperature of the thermo
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

74^{\circ} C

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of glass,m=300 g

T_1=23^{\circ}

Volume,V=236cm^3

Mass of water=density\times volume=1\times 236=236 g

Density of water=1g/cm^3

Temperature of hot water,T=87^{\circ}

Specific heat of glass,C_g=0.2cal/g^{\circ}C

Specific heat of water,C_w=1 cal/g^{\circ}C

Q_{glass}=m_gC_g(T_f-T_1)=300\times 0.2(T_f-23)

Q_{water}=m_wC_w(T_f-T)=236\times 1(T_f-87)

Q_{glass}+Q_{water}=0

300\times 0.2(T_f-23)+236\times 1(T_f-87)

60T_f-1380+236T_f-20532=0

296T_f=20532+1380=21912

T_f=\frac{21912}{296}=74^{\circ} C

Allushta [10]

No.

Since repeated measurements are taken and the average and 95% confidence interval are calculated, the possibility of the lack of agreement being a random error has been minimized or even eliminated.

<h3>What is a random error?</h3>

Random error is defined as the deviation of the total error from its mean value due to chance.

Random errors can result from the instrument not being precise or from mistakes by the researcher.

Random errors can be minimized by taking multiple readings and averaging the results.

Since repeated measurements are taken and the average and 95% confidence interval are calculated, the possibility of the lack of agreement being a ransom error has been minimized.

sergeinik [125]
The best way in handling in this situation is that in order for the astronaut to be able to get back to the shuttle is that he or she should take an object from his or her tool belt and to be thrown out away from the shuttle. This will allow her to weight lightly and safely return to the shuttle and would be easier for his or her to do so.

Explanation:

George focus on promotion rather than using the other stores strategy of word-of-mouth. Different types of promotion: advertising, public relations, direct selling and sales promotions.A temporary reduction in the price, such as 50% off. Reduction amount  may be a percentage that can be marked on the package.A coupon booklet is inserted into the local newspaper for delivery. Also on checkout  the customer can be given a coupon based on products purchased. The consumer is automatically entered into the contest/event by purchasing the product.

A railroad train is traveling at a speed of 26.0 m/s in still air. The frequency of the note emitted by the locomotive whistle i
olga55 [171]

Answer: 0.757m; 0.881m; 432.70Hz; 371.89Hz

Explanation:

Give the following :

Velocity of train (Vt) = 26m/s

Frequency of sound (Fs) = 420Hz

Speed of sound (Vs) = 344m/s

1) wavelength = (Vs - Vt) / Fs

Wavelength = (344 - 26) / 420 = 318/420 = 0.757m

11) Wavelength = (Vs + Vt) / Fs

Wavelength = (344 + 26) / 420 = 370/420 = 0.881m

111) According to the doppler effect :

Fl = [(V + Vl) / (V + Vs)] * fs

Fl = frequency of listener ; fs = frequency of sound source ; V = speed of sound ; Vl = Velocity of listener ; Vs = speed of sound source

Vs = - ve (train moving towards listener)

Fl = [(V + Vl) / (V + Vs)] * fs

Fl = [(344 + 0) / (344 - 26)] * 400

Fl = (344 / 318) * 400 = 432.70Hz

1V) Vs = + ve (train moving away listener)

Fl = [(V + Vl) / (V + Vs)] * fs

Fl = [(344 + 0) / (344 + 26)] * 400

Fl = (344 / 370) * 400 = 371.89Hz
