This is true. The victim could be too embarrassed and would not want others to know because people could bash her for that.

A rock is dropped from a 110-m-high cliff. How long does it take to fall (a) the first 55.0 m and (b) the second 55.0 m?

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

a) t = 3.35[s]; b) t = 1.386[s]

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by dividing it into two parts, for the first 55 [m] and then the second part with the remaining 55 [m].

We will take the initial velocity as zero, as the problem does not mention that the Rock was thrown at initial velocity.

And using kinematics equations:

$v_{f}^{2}= v_{o}^{2}+2*g*y\\where:\\v_{o}=0\\g=gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]\\y=55 [m]\\v_{f}^{2}=0+2*9.81*55\\v_{f}=\sqrt{2*9.81*55} \\v_{f}=32.85[m/s]$

Now we can calculate the time:

$v_{f}=v_{o}+g*t\\t=\frac{v_{f}-v_{o}}{g}\\ t=\frac{32.85-0}{9.81}\\ t=3.35[s]$

Now we can calculate the second time, but using as a initial velocity 32.85[m/s].

The final velocity will be:

$v_{f}^{2}= v_{o}^{2}+2*g*y\\v_{f}=\sqrt{v_{o}^{2}+2*g*y} \\v_{f}=\sqrt{32.85^{2}+2*9.81*55 } \\v_{f}=46.45[m/s]$

Now we can calculate the second time:

$t=\frac{46.45-32.85}{9.81} \\t= 1.386[s]$

Note: The reason the second time is shorter even though it is the same distance is that the acceleration of gravity increases the speed of the rock more and more as it falls.

A petrol engine that transforms 1000J of chemical potential energy into 300J of kinetic energy, and 700J into wasted heat and so

sergey [27]

Answer:

Efficiency = 30% = 0.3

Explanation:

The general formula for efficiency of a device is given as:

Efficiency = (Desired Output/ Input) * 100%

Here, in our case, we have a petrol engine as a device. So, we analyze it for the efficiency calculations. Here, we have:

Chemical Potential Energy = 1000 J

Kinetic Energy = 300 J

Heat and Sound Energy = 700 J

Now, we know that the desired output of a car or the purpose of a car is to provide Kinetic energy, while all other forms of energy such as heat and sound energies are produced as waste. And the chemical energy is provided to car as input, in form of fuel. Therefore,

Input = Chemical Potential Energy = 1000 J

Desired Output = Kinetic Energy = 300 J

Therefore,

Efficiency = (300 J/1000 J) * 100%

<u>Efficiency = 30% = 0.3</u>

g If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance, what should that resi

Anettt [7]

<h2>Question:</h2>

In this circuit the resistance R1 is 3Ω, R2 is 7Ω, and R3 is 7Ω. If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance, what should that resistance be?

Answer:

9.1Ω

Explanation:

The circuit diagram has been attached to this response.

(i) From the diagram, resistors R1 and R2 are connected in parallel to each other. The reciprocal of their equivalent resistance, say Rₓ, is the sum of the reciprocals of the resistances of each of them. i.e

$\frac{1}{R_X} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2}$

=> $R_{X} = \frac{R_1 * R_2}{R_1 + R_2}$ ------------(i)

From the question;

R1 = 3Ω,

R2 = 7Ω

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

$R_{X} = \frac{3 * 7}{3 + 7}$

$R_{X} = \frac{21}{10}$

$R_{X} = 2.1$ Ω

(ii) Now, since we have found the equivalent resistance (Rₓ) of R1 and R2, this resistance (Rₓ) is in series with the third resistor. i.e Rₓ and R3 are connected in series. This is shown in the second image attached to this response.

Because these resistors are connected in series, they can be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance R. Where R is the sum of the resistances of the two resistors: Rₓ and R3. i.e

R = Rₓ + R3

Rₓ = 2.1Ω

R3 = 7Ω

=> R = 2.1Ω + 7Ω = 9.1Ω

Therefore, the combination of the resistors R1, R2 and R3 can be replaced with a single resistor with an equivalent resistance of 9.1Ω
