A rock hits the ground at a speed of 15 m/s and leaves a hole 50 cm deep. After it hits the ground, what is the magnitude of the
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

B) 225 m/s^2

Explanation:

The rock hits the ground at 15m/s and travels 50cm=0.5m through the ground until it stops.

The acceleration is supposed to be uniform, so the formula we have to use is v^2=v_0^2+2ad, which for acceleration is:

a=\frac{v^2-v_0^2}{2d}

Taking the <em>downwards direction as positive</em> (the direction of traveling, so the initial velocity and displacement will be positive), substituting our values for that movement we have:

a=\frac{v^2-v_0^2}{2d}=\frac{(0m/s)^2-(15m/s)^2}{2(0.5m)}=-255m/s^2

Where the <em>negative sign indicates that it is pointing upwards.</em>

Infer whether a circuit breaker should be connected in parallel to the circuit that it is protecting.
Alla [95]
A circuit breaker is to be connected in series in the circuit it is to protect.
Explanation:
Let us understand why do we need circuit breakers.
Circuit breaker is a protective device which will break the circuit in case of emergency like the appliance gets short or the wiring may get shorted in between. Also it is provided to cut-off electricity to a specific part of wiring in a house/building etc. for non-emergency situations, say for the purpose of maintenance.
Invariably it is placed in series with the live wire at the switch board or circuit breaker box, so that as soon as circuit breaker trips/switched off, no electrical wiring in the circuit it is protecting should remain live.
The mains circuit breaker is placed in series with the wiring of the dwelling unit and the Electricity incoming point of the Electric Supply Company.
The remaining circuit breakers are connected in parallel to each other to various distribution points/rooms. If connected in series, it will be impossible to isolate a section/part of circuit.
However, each circuit breaker is to be connected in series in the part circuit it is to protect.

Make p the subject of the relation 3t-pqq<br><br>=2(pn)<br>​
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

Add pqq to both sides

3t = pqq + 2 pn                       Pull out p as a common factor.

3t = p(qq + 2n)                       Divide by qq + 2n

3t/(qq + 2n)
