An airplane starts from rest at the end of a runway and accelerates at a constant rate. In the first second, the airplane travel
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

v=4.44\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Given that the airplane starts from the rest (this is initial velocity equals to zero)  and accelerates at a constant rate, position can be described like this: x=v_{0}t +\frac{1}{2} at^{2} where x is the position, t is the time a is the acceleration and v_{0} is initial velocity. In this way acceleration can be found. a=\frac{2(x-v_{0}t) }{t^{2} } =\frac{2(1.11m-0)}{1s^{2} } =2.22\frac{m}{s^{2} }.

Now we are able to found velocity at any time with the formula: v=v_{0} +at = 0\frac{m}{s} +(2.22\frac{m}{s^{2}}.2s)=4.44\frac{m}{s}

Which, if any, of the following statements about electric field lines is/are true? A.The electric field is always perpendicular
jonny [76]
The electric field is always perpendicular to the surface outside of a conductor. TRUE

<span> If an electron were placed on an electric field line, it would move in a direction perpendicular to the field. FALSE, it would move in an anti-parallel direction because its charge is negative </span>
 
<span>Electric field lines originate on positive charge and terminate on negative charge. TRUE ; but they can also go to infinity </span>
 
It is possible for two electric field lines to cross each other.
<span> Usually FALSE; though technically possible at special points where field is zero. </span>
 
If an electron and a positron were in the presence of a very strong electric field, they would move away from each other.
<span> TRUE; one is positive, and one is negative. If the field is strong enough, the action of the field will overcome the mutual attraction between them </span>
 
It is not possible for the electric field to ever be zero. FALSE: it IS possible, inside a conductor for instance
   
If a proton were placed on an electric field line, it would move in a direction anti-parallel to the field.
<span> FALSE: being positive, it would move in the SAME direction as the field</span>ic

A person is filling a knee-high bucket with water using a garden hose and holding it such that water discharges from the hose at
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Yes i am agree with this suggestion

Explanation:

Given that we have to assume that there is no any frictional affects.

As we know that when height increases then the discharge level will decreases when discharge level decreases then the time of filling for the bucket will increase.So the  bucket will fill faster if the hose lowered until knee level.

Yes i am agree with this suggestion

If a person climbed Mt. Everest has a mass of 105 kg and a weight of 625 N what would be the acceleration due to gravity?
DanielleElmas [232]

The acceleration due to gravity would be 5.95 m/s²

A force is known to be a push or pull and it is the change in momentum per time. It can be expressed by using the relation.

  • Force = mass × acceleration.

From the parameters given:

  • Mass = 105 kg
  • Force = 625 N

By replacing the given values into the above equation, we can determine the acceleration.

∴

625 N = 105 kg × acceleration.

\mathbf{acceleration = \dfrac{625 \ N}{105 \ kg}}

acceleration = 5.95 N/kg

  • Since 1 N/kg = 1 m/²

acceleration = 5.95 m/s²
