It takes 6 seconds for a stone to fall to the bottom of a mine shaft. how deep is the shaft

Margaret [11]

You need the kinematic equation for distance as a function of acceleration:

$d = [v(initial) *t] + 0.5a*t^{2}$

where a = gravitational acceleration 9.8m/s^{2}
v(initial) = starting velocity
t = time of fall

if the stone started at rest then v(initial) = 0 making the equation simply $0.5a * t^{2}$

Let me know if you still need further help :)

A river flows due south with a speed of 2.0 m/s .You steer a motorboat across the river; your velocity relative to the water is

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

a) $v_m =\sqrt{v^2_x + v^2_y} = \sqrt{(2m/s)^2 +(4.8 m/s)^2}= 5.2 m/s$

b) $\theta= tan^{-1} \frac{v_y}{v_x} = tan^{-1} (\frac{2}{4.8})= 22.62$ degrees and on this case to the South of the East.

c) $t= \frac{w}{v_m}= \frac{600m}{4.8 m/s}= 125 s$

d) $Y = 2 m/s * 125 s = 250m$

So it would be 250 to the South

Explanation:

Part a

For this case the figure attached shows the illustration for the problem.

We know that $v_y = 2 m/s$ represent the velocity of the river to the south.

We have the velocity of the motorboard relative to the water and on this case is $V_x= 4.8 m/s$

And we want to find the velocity of the motord board relative to the Earth $v_m$

And we can find this velocity from the Pythagorean Theorem.

$v_m =\sqrt{v^2_x + v^2_y} = \sqrt{(2m/s)^2 +(4.8 m/s)^2}= 5.2 m/s$

Part b

We can find the direction with the following formula:

$\theta= tan^{-1} \frac{v_y}{v_x} = tan^{-1} (\frac{2}{4.8})= 22.62$ degrees and on this case to the South of the East.

Part c

For this case we can use the following definition

$D = Vt$

The distance would be D = w = 600 m and the velocity V = 4.8m/s and if we solve for t we got:

$t= \frac{w}{v_m}= \frac{600m}{4.8 m/s}= 125 s$

Part d

For this case we can use the same definition but now using the y compnent we have:

$Y = v_y t$

And replacing we got:

$Y = 2 m/s * 125 s = 250m$

So it would be 250 to the South

Calculate the energy (in eV/atom) for vacancy formation in some metal, M, given that the equilibrium number of vacancies at 296o

Schach [20]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Temperature of metal = $296^{o}C$ = (296 + 273) K

= 569 K

Density of the metal = 8.85 $g/cm^{3}$ = $8.85 \times 10^{-6} g/m^{3}$ (as $1 cm^{3} = 10^{-6} m^{3}$ )

Atomic mass = 51.40 g/mol

Vacancies = $9.19 \times 10^{23} m^{-3}$

Formula to calculate the number of atomic sites is as follows.

n = $\frac{\rho \times N_{A}}{\text{atomic weight}}$

= $\frac{8.85 \times 10^{-6} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}}{51.40 g/mol}$

= $1.036 \times 10^{17} atom/m^{3}$

Now, we will calculate the energy as follows.

E = $-KT \times ln (\frac{\text{no. of vacancies}}{\text{no. of atomic sites}})$

where, K = $8.62 \times 10^{-5}$

E = $-8.62 \times 10^{-5} \times 569 K \times ln (\frac{9.19 \times 10^{23}}{1.036 \times 10^{17} atom/m^{3}})$

= $78.46 eV/atom$

Therefore, we can conclude that energy (in eV/atom) for vacancy formation in given metal, M, is $78.46 eV/atom$ .

__________ is a type of molding in which thermoplastics are heated above melting temperature and, using an extruder, are forced

Ymorist [56]

Answer: The correct and is

D. Extrusion

Explanation:

What is extrusion?

Extrusion is a manufacturing process used to make basically pipes and hoses.

The pvc granules are melt into a liquid which is forced through a die, forming a long 'tube like' shape. The shape of the die determines the shape of the tube.

The extrusion is then cooled and forms a solid shape

Extrusion moulding is used to create products with a consistent cross-section.
