<span>Greek philosophers had a basic approach to studying the world. They like to question the world and incite debates but they never really bothered to gather any real information, just discussions. Due to this, many ideas about matters were put out to be discussed, but they were never resolved.</span>

A completely inelastic collision occurs between two balls of wet putty that move directly toward each other along a vertical axi
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

h = 2.64 meters      

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of one ball, m_1=3\ kg

Speed of the first ball, v_1=20\ m/s (upward)

Mass of the other ball, m_2=2\ kg

Speed of the other ball, v_2=-12\ m/s (downward)

We know that in an inelastic collision, after the collision, both objects move with one common speed. Let it is given by V. Using the conservation of momentum to find it as :

V=\dfrac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

V=\dfrac{3\times 20+2\times (-12)}{3+2}

V = 7.2 m/s

Let h is the height reached by the combined balls of putty rise above the collision point. Using the conservation of energy as :

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mV^2

h=\dfrac{V^2}{2g}

h=\dfrac{7.2^2}{2\times 9.8}

h = 2.64 meters

So, the height reached by the combined mass is 2.64 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

A tank is full of water. Find the work W required to pump the water out of the spout. (Use 9.8 m/s2 for g. Use 1000 kg/m3 as the
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

W = 1.06 MJ

Explanation:

- We will use differential calculus to solve this problem.

- Make a differential volume of water in the tank with thickness dx. We see as we traverse up or down the differential volume of water the side length is always constant, hence, its always 8.

- As for the width of the part w we see that it varies as we move up and down the differential element. We will draw a rectangle whose base axis is x and vertical axis is y. we will find the equation of the slant line that comes out to be y = 0.5*x. And the width spans towards both of the sides its going to be 2*y = x.

- Now develop and expression of Force required:

                                             F = p*V*g

                                             F = 1000*(2*0.5*x*8*dx)*g

                                             F = 78480*x*dx

- Now, the work done is given by:

                                             W = F.s

- Where, s is the distance from top of hose to the differential volume:

                                             s = (5 - x)

- We have the work as follows:

                                            dW = 78400*x*(5-x)dx

- Now integrate the following express from 0 to 3 till the tank is empty:

                                           W = 78400*(2.5*x^2 - (1/3)*x^3)

                                           W = 78400*(2.5*3^2 - (1/3)*3^3)

                                           W = 78400*13.5 = 1058400 J

Which statement is not a good practice when working inside a computer case?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

a. be sure to hold expansion cards by the edge connectors

Explanation:

Removal of loose jewelry is a good safety practice. Also not touching a microchip with a magnetized screwdriver is also a good practice.

But holding expansion cards by the edge connectors is not a good practice, so it is the odd one in the question. Therefore answer option a provides the correct and best answer to the question

The body contains many small currents caused by the motion of ions in the organs and cells. Measurements of the magnetic field a
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

270 μA

Explanation:

Use the magnetic field due to long, straight wire and solve for current I.

B= \frac{\mu_0I}{2\pi r}

I= \frac{2\pi r B}{\mu_0}

plug in the values

I= \frac{2\pi(5.40\times10^{-2})\times10\times10^{-6}\times10^{-4}}{4\pi\times10^{-7}}

= 2.7×10^{-4)×10^6

=270 μA

The current that flows in the  heart is 270 μA
