Answer:

The height of the building is approximately 156.58 m

Explanation:

The mass of the ball dropped from rest from the building top = 0.660 kg

The time in which the ball falls, t = 5.65 seconds

The height, h, of the building is given from the following equation of motion;

h = u·t + ¹/₂·g·t²

Where;

u = The initial velocity of the ball = 0 m/s

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Plugging in the values, we have;

h = 0 × 5.65 + ¹/₂ × 9.81 × 5.65² ≈ 156.58 m

The height of the building, h ≈ 156.58 m.

Answer:

b.only when the current in the first coil changes.

Explanation:

An induced current flow in the second coil only when there is a change in current in the first cool. A steady current will produce no change in flux (due to magnetic effect of a current) by the first coil, and according to Faraday, induced current is only produced when there is a change in flux linkage.

A girl and a boy are riding on a merry go round that is turning at a constant rate. The girl is near the outer edge, and the boy

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The girl has greater tangential acceleration

Explanation:

The angular acceleration ( $\alpha$ ) of the merry go round is equal to the rate of the change of the angular velocity, $\omega$ :

$\alpha = \frac{d\omega}{dt}$

Since all the points of the merry go round complete 1 circle in the same time, the angular velocity of each point of the merry go round is the same, and so all the points also have the same angular acceleration.

The tangential acceleration instead is given by

$a_t = \alpha r$

where

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

r is the distance from the centre of the merry go round

Since the girl is near the outer edge and the boy is closer to the centre, the value of r for the girl is larger than for the boy, so the girl has greater tangential acceleration.
