Answer: 0.53m

Explanation:

According to the equation of motion v²= v₀²+2as

Since the body is launched upward, the final velocity at the maximum height will be "zero" since the body will momentarily be at rest at the maximum height i.e v = 0

Initial velocity given (v₀) = 3.25 m/s

The body is also under the influence of gravity but the acceleration due to gravity will be negative being an upward force (a = -g) and the distance (s) will serve as our maximum height (h)

The equation of motion will.now become

V = v₀² -2gh

Where v = 0 v₀ = 3.25m/s g = 10m/s h = ?

0 = 3.25² - 2(10)h

0 = 10.56 - 20h

-10.56 = -20h

h = 10.56/20

h = 0.53m

Therefore, the maximum height, h (in meters), above the launch point that the basketball will achieve is 0.53m

How can you increase the intensity of sound waves
VladimirAG [237]

Answer

The intensity of a sound wave depends on the pressure of the wave,density of the medium and speed of sound in the medium. Higher density and higher sound speed both give a lower intensity. and may be it is because that sound wave is more characterize by wavelength than frequency..explanation

Explanation:

As decibel levels get higher, sound waves have greater intensity and sounds are louder. For every 10-decibel increase in the intensity of sound, loudness is 10 times greater. Intensity of sound results from two factors: the amplitude of the sound waves and how far they have traveled from the source of the sound.

A long solenoid that has 1,130 turns uniformly distributed over a length of 0.430 m produces a magnetic field of magnitude 1.00
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Given Information:

Number of turns = N = 1130 turns

Length of solenoid = L = 0.430 m

Magnetic field = B =  1.0x10⁻⁴ T

Required Information:

Current = I = ?

Answer:

I = 0.0302 A

Explanation:

The current flowing in the solenoid winding can be found using

I = BL/μ₀N

Where μ₀ is the permeability of free space, N is the number of turns, B is the magnetic field and L is the length of solenoid

I = 1.0x10⁻⁴*0.430/4πx10⁻⁷ *1130

I = 0.0302 A

or

I = 30.28 mA

Thomas Newcomen was the first to produce a working steam engine. Why is the work of James Watt more widely known than the work o
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The steam engine of James watt is more efficient than Newcomen ans more suitable for the industrial revolution.

Explanation:

James Watt is more widely know for working steam engine because Watt has created better engine which is suitable for the industrial revolution. The steam engine of James watt is more efficient than Newcomen. Watt developed the condensing arrangement by using piston which lessen the initial pressure leading to effectively worked than Newcomen's
