Answer:

1.4 m/s

Explanation:

The minimum speed will be when the diver's initial velocity is horizontal.

First, find the time it takes for the diver to fall 10 meters.

Given:

Δy = 10 m

v₀ᵧ = 0 m/s

aᵧ = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

10 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.43 s

Now find the initial horizontal velocity.

v = (2 m) / (1.43 s)

v = 1.4 m/s

What happens when a sound wave passes from oil into air? A. the sound wave slows down and bounces back B. the sound wave slows d
Jlenok [28]

Oil is optically denser than water. When sound/light goes from optically denser medium to optically rarer medium, their velocity increase and they moves away for normal.

<h3><u>Appropriate</u><u> </u><u>Answer</u><u>:</u></h3>

The sound wave speeds up and bends

\Large{ \underline{ \boxed{ \pink{ \bf{Option \: (D)}}}}}

As, In optics we learnt that light undergoes refraction when travels from medium of different densities. Similarly, Sound also follows the law of refraction.

  • It is due to the change of speed of water in different mediums, This makes it speed up or down depending upon the medium and their densities.

Three identical resistors are connected in parallel to a battery. If the current of 12. A flows from the battery, how much curre
Doss [256]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

We are given that

R_1=R_2=R_3=4\Omega

I=12 A

We have to find the current flowing through each resistor.

We know that in parallel combination current flowing through different resistors are different and potential difference across each resistor is same.

Formula :

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}

Using the formula

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}

R=\frac{4}{3}\Omega

V=IR

Substitute the values

V=12\times \frac{4}{3}=16 V

I_1=\frac{V}{R_1}=\frac{16}{4}=4 A

I_1=I_2=I_3=4 A

Hence, current flows through any one of the resistors is 4 A.

A wire 6.60 m long with diameter of 2.05 mm has a resistance of 0.0310 Ω.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

1.551×10^-8 Ωm

Explanation:

Resistivity of a material is expressed as shown;.

Resistivity = RA/l

R is the resistance of the material

A is the cross sectional area

l is the length of the wire.

Given;

R = 0.0310 Ω

A = πd²/4

A = π(2.05×10^-3)²/4

A = 0.000013204255/4

A = 0.00000330106375

A = 3.30×10^-6m

l = 6.60m

Substituting this values into the formula for calculating resistivity.

rho = 0.0310× 3.30×10^-6/6.60

rho = 1.023×10^-7/6.60

rho = 1.551×10^-8 Ωm

Hence the resistivity of the material is 1.551×10^-8 Ωm

The formula for average​ speed is S=D/T

1. S=72m/37s

Divide

S= 1.94

Kira's average speed is 1.94m/s.

2. S=7.5km / 1.5h

S=5

Your average speed is 5km/h

3. S=1260km/3.5h

S=360

The airplanes average speed is 360km/h
