What must her minimum speed be just as she leaves the top of the cliff so that she will miss the ledge at the bottom, which is 1

Answer:

1.292 m/s

Explanation:

For her trajectory motion, the time taken to descend to a height of 9 m is given as

t = √(2H/g) = √[(2×9)/9.8] = 1.355 s

Then the range (horizontal distance covered) is related to the time to reach that height and the corresponding horizontal velocity as shown in

R = ut

where u = initial horizontal velocity

1.75 = u × 1.355

u = 1.292 m/s

This is the minimum speed just as she leaves the top of the cliff to miss the ledge described in the question.

How much heat is absorbed by 41 g iron skillet when its temperature varies from 9°C. to 20°C
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

202.95J

Explanation:

The formulae for the energy absorbed by the iron skillet is;

q=m*c*ΔФ   where q=energy absorbed, m is mass of iron skillet, c is specific heat capacity and ΔФ is change in temperature

Given that;

m= 41g

ΔФ=20°-9°=11°

c=0.45 J/g°C

q= 41×0.45×11

q= 202.95 J

The normal boiling point of cyclohexane is 81.0 ℃. what is the vapor pressure of cyclohexane at 81.0 ℃?
Hitman42 [59]
The boiling point is defined as the temperature at which the pressure of the vapor of the liquid is equivalent to the external atmospheric pressure surrounding the liquid. Therefore, the boiling point of the liquid is dependent on the atmospheric pressure.

Based on this, the vapor pressure of cyclohexane at 81 degrees celcius will be equal to atmospheric pressure (based on barometric readings)<span />

A 0.023 kg golf ball moving at 18.9 m/s crashes through the window of a house in 5.4 × 10−4 s. After the crash, the ball contin-
PolarNik [594]
Force can be expressed as the time-rate change of momentum

Mathematically, Force = Change in momentum/change in time

Change in momentum = m(10.1-18.9) = -0.2024

Force = -2024/5.4 = -375N(approx)

The significance of the '-' sign is that the direction of force is the opposite that of the direction of our velocities since we assumed them to be positive.

Also this is the force on the ball, the force on the window will be equal and opposite.
