Answer:

1.43 s

Explanation:

The time it takes for the container to reach the ground is determined only by the vertical motion of the container, which is a free-fall motion, so a uniformly accelerated motion with a constant acceleration of g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground.

The vertical distance covered by an object in free fall is given by

S=ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

u = 0 is the initial vertical speed

t is the time

a= g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

since u=0, it can be rewritten as

S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

And substituting S=10.0 m, we can solve for t, to find the duration of the fall:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(10.0 m)}{9.8 m/s^2}}=1.43 s

Virty [35]

Answer:

1.76m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Final velocity  = 65m/s

Distance traveled  = 1200m

Unknown:

Acceleration  = ?

Solution:

This is linear velocity and we apply the appropriate motion equation to solve this problem.

      V²  = U² + 2as

S is the distance

u is the initial velocity

V is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

Now, insert the parameters and solve;

             65²  =  0² + 2 x a x 1200

             4225 = 2400a

                  a  = 1.76m/s²

IrinaK [193]
Answer: 0.0138 m^2  = 138 cm^2

Explanation:

The thermal expansion is the term use for the physical phenomena of dilation of the objects when they are exposed to changes in temperature.

The objects dilate when they are heated and contract when they are cooled.

The dilation is proportional to the change in temperatur.

For linear dilation, the proportionality constant is called linear dilation coefficient of the materials, it is named α and is measured in °C ^-1.

ΔL = α * Lo * ΔT, which means that the dilation (or contraction) is proportional to the product of the original length (Lo) and the change of temperature (ΔT).

There is also superficial dilation, for which the dilation is:

ΔA = β * Ao * ΔT, which means that the superficial dilation (or contraction) is proportional to the product of the original area (Ao) and the change of temperature (ΔT).

It is very interesting and important to solve problems that β = 2α, because regularly you will find the values of α for different materials and so, you just to multiply it times 2 to use β.

For this problem:

- Original area, Ao = area of the flat roof at - 10°C = 2.0m * 3.0m = 6.0 m^2.
- α for aluminum = 24 * 10^ -6 °C^-1.
- ΔT = 38°C - (-10°C) = 48°C

So, ΔA = 6.0m^2 * (2 * 24*10^-6 °C&-1) * 48°C = 0.0138 m^2

And that is the area that should stick out in summer to fit the structure during cold winter nights.

You can pass that number to cm^2 to grasp better the idea of this size:

0.0138 m^2 * (100 cm)^2 / m^2 = 138 cm^2

Sandi believes that people who eat at McDonald's are overweight, so she decides to do a naturalistic observation of people who e
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

observer bias

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question the thing that should concern us the most about Sandi's observations is Observer Bias. This term refers to the tendency of a researcher to see what they want as opposed to what is actually happening. This can be said because of Sandi's belief that McDonald clients are all overweight, by having this belief before actually having come to this conclusion with a series of tests, it might lead her to believe this to be true regardless of what she observes during the experiment.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Consider f(x) = -4x2 + 24x + 3. Determine whether the function has a maximum or minimum value. Then find the
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

The function has a maximum in x=3

The maximum is:

f(3) = 39

Explanation:

Find the first derivative of the function for the inflection point, then equal to zero and solve for x

f(x)' = -4*2x + 24=0

-4*2x + 24=0

8x=24

x=3

Now find the second derivative of the function and evaluate at x = 3.

If f (3) ''< 0 the function has a maximum

If f (3) '' >0 the function has a minimum

f(x)''= 8

Note that:

f(3)''= -8

the function has a maximum in x=3

The maximum is:

f(3)=-4(3)^2+24(3) + 3\\\\f(3) = 39
