Answer:

The truce ended all wars

Explanation:

The Olympic Truce or the sacred truce, is the declaration made by ambassadors for the laying down of arms and the stop of all hostilities starting from seven days before the Olympic games began and ending seven days after the games to provide safe passage for travelling athletes and also spectators to and from the Olympic games

However, the games were held during Persian wars and also during the Peloponnesian wars. As such the truce stopped mainly conflicts that have direct impact on the Olympic games and there was an attack in Olympia in 364 BC during the games.

Number 5 and 6 i need just give answer

sashaice [31]

Explanation:

voltage = current × resistance

12 V = 4.2 A × resistance

resistance = 12 V / 4.2 A = 2.857142857... Ohm

FYI :

4.2 A would be a lot for a small electronic device like a CD player. that would be 12×4.2 = 50.4 Watt, and the CD player would get really hot.

120 V = current × 12 Ohm

current = 120 V / 12 Ohm = 10 A

A ball of mass 0.120 kg is dropped from rest from a height of 1.25 m. It rebounds from the floor to reach a height of 0.820 m. W

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

1.0752 kgm/s

Explanation:

Considering when the drop was dropped from rest from a height,

mass of the ball, m = 0.120 kg

height, h = - 1.25 m

the initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

the acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s²

From equation of motion

$V^{2} = U^{2} + 2gh$

Substituting the values,

$V^{2} = 0^{2} + 2(-9.8 m/s^{2})(-1.25 m)$

$V^{2} = 24.5 m/s$

$V = \sqrt{24.5} \ m/s$

$V = 4.95 \ m/s$

V = ± 4.95 m/s

V = - 4.95 m/s

Since the ball is moving downward, the final velocity of the ball when it hits the floor is V = - 4.95 m/s

Considering when the ball rebounds from the floor,

assume the mass of the ball still remain, m = 0.120 kg

height, h = 0.820 m

the final velocity, v = 0 m/s

the acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s²

From equation of motion

$V^{2} = U^{2} + 2gh$

Substituting the values,

$0^{2} = U^{2} + 2(-9.8 m/s^{2})(0.820 m)$

$0 = U^{2} - 16.072 m/s$

$U^{2} = 16.072 m/s$

$U = \sqrt{16.072} \ m/s$

U = ± 4.01 m/s

U = + 4.01 m/s

Since the ball is moving upward, the initial velocity of the ball from the bounce from the floor is U = + 4.01 m/s

From Newton's second law of motion, applied force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum.

$F = \frac{mv - mu}{t}$

$F.t = m(v - u)$

⇒ Impulse = Change in momentum

To calculate the impulse, the moment before the ball hits the ground will be the initial momentum while the moment the ball rebounces will be the final velocity,

∴ F.t = 0.120 kg(4.01 m/s - (-4.95 m/s) )

F.t = 0.120 kg(4.01 m/s + 4.95 m/s) )

F.t = 0.120 kg × 8.96 m/s

Impulse = 1.0752 kgm/s

The impulse given to the ball by the floor is 1.0752 kgm/s

What does Coulombs law state?

dedylja [7]

Coulomb's law states that: The magnitude of the electrostatic force of interaction between two point charges is directly proportional to the scalar multiplication of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

A room with 3.1-m-high ceilings has a metal plate on the floor with V = 0V and a separate metal plate on the ceiling. A 1.1g gla

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The ball traveled 0.827 m

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the metal plates of the room, d = 3.1 m

mass of the glass, m = 1.1g

charge on the glass, q = 4.7 nC

speed of the glass ball, v = 4.8 m/s

voltage of the ceiling, V = +3.0 x 10⁶ V

The repulsive force experienced by the ball when shot to the ceiling with positive voltage, can be calculated using Coulomb's law;

F = qV/d

|F| = (4.7 x 10⁻⁹ x 3 x 10⁶) / (3.1)

|F| = 4.548 x 10⁻³ N

F = - 4.548 x 10⁻³ N

The net horizontal force experienced by this ball is;

$F_{net} = F_c - mg\\\\F_{net} = -4.548 *10^{-3} - (1.1*10^{-3} * 9.8)\\\\F_{net} = -15.328*10^{-3} \ N$

The work done between the ends of the plate is equal to product of the magnitude of net force on the ball and the distance traveled by the ball.

$W = F_{net} *h\\\\W = 15.328 *10^{-3} * h$

W = K.E

$15.328*10^{-3} *h = \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\ 15.328*10^{-3} *h = \frac{1}{2}(1.1*10^{-3})(4.8)^2\\\\ 15.328*10^{-3} *h =0.0127\\\\h = \frac{0.0127}{15.328*10^{-3}}\\\\ h = 0.827 \ m$

Therefore, the ball traveled 0.827 m
