Answer:
2) 433 mph
Explanation:
The final velocity of the raindrop as it reaches the ground can be found by using the equation for a uniformly accelerated motion:

where
v is the final velocity
u = 0 is the initial velocity (the raindrop starts from rest)
a = g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity
d = 2 km = 2000 m is the distance covered
Solving for v,

And keeping in mind that
1 mile = 1609 metres
1 hour = 3600 s
The speed converted into miles per hour is

Answer:
Yes, if the system has friction, the final result is affected by the loss of energy.
Explanation:
The result that you are showing is the conservation of mechanical energy between two points in the upper one, the energy is only potential and the lower one is only kinetic.
In the case of some type of friction, the change in energy between the same points is equal to the work of the friction forces
= ΔEm
=
-Em₀
As we can see now there is another quantity and for which the final energy is lower and therefore the final speed would be less than what you found in the case without friction.
=
+ Em₀
Remember that the work of the rubbing force is negative, let's write the work of the rubbing force explicitly, to make it clearer
½ m v² = -fr d + mgh
v = √(-fr d 2/m + 2 gh)
v = √ (2gh - 2fr d/m)
Now it is clear that there is a decrease in the final body speed.
Consequently, if the system has friction, the final result is affected by the loss of energy.
Radioactive "decay" means particles and stuff shoot OUT of a nucleus.
After that happens, there's less stuff in the nucleus than there was before.
So the new mass number is always less than the original mass number.
Answer:
C) Unscrew one light. If the other lights turn off, it's a series circuit.
Explanation:
THIS IS THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW;
A strand of 10 lights is plugged into an outlet. How can you determine if the lights are connected in series or parallel? A) Unscrew one light. If the other lights stay on, it's a series circuit. B) Unplug the strand. If the first light stays on, it's a series circuit. C) Unscrew one light. If the other lights turn off, it's a series circuit. D) Cut the strand in half. If the plugged in half stays on, it's a series circuit.
SERIES CIRCUIT
In this circuit, the components there are in the same path, the entire circuit has the same current, each of the components posses different voltage drop. Hence, failure of one components to work, there will be break in entire circuit then other components cease to work.
PARALLEL CIRCUIT
This circuit has equal voltage drop across all the components, any problem in a component will not has effect on other components.
Therefore, if one want to determine if a light connection is in series or in parallel, one of the light can be unplugged if others stop working it means it's series, if other works it's parallel.
