Answer:

S = 11.025 m

Explanation:

Given,

The time taken by the pebble to hit the water surface is, t = 1.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

Using the II equations of motion

                          S = ut + 1/2 gt²

Here u is the initial velocity of the pebble. Since it is free-fall, the initial velocity

                                u = 0

Therefore, the equation becomes

                            S = 1/2 gt²

Substituting the given values in the above equation

                              S = 0.5 x 9.8 x 1.5²

                                 = 11.025 m

Hence, the distance from the edge of the well to the water's surface is, S = 11.025 m

Answer:

Discharge Rate = 0.2 cubic meters per second

Explanation:

Torricelli's Law is derived from Bernoulli's equation and simply states that the speed of the efflux in a Torricelli apparatus (shown below) is directly proportional to and affected only by the height of the fluid above it.

V = √2g(10-2)

Putting value of g = 9.8 we get:

V = 12.52 m/s

Discharge rate = Q = A × V

= 1.60/100 × 12.52

= 0.2 cubic meter per second

Best Regards!

At a temperature of 250 K, the gas in a cylinder has a volume of 20 L. If the temperature increased to 260 K, what must the volu
masya89 [10]

Answer:b.20.8L

Explanation:

Since pressure is constant we can use the equation V1/T1 = V2/T2

(20/250)=(x/260)

5200=250x

X=20.8

I need help on EM spectrum and waves​
Nutka1998 [239]
<h2>Answer:It is not affected by the change in media.</h2>

Explanation:

Transverse waves are those waves where the medium particles vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

Transverse waves do not require any medium.

They travel with same speed in any medium.

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves where the medium particles vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

So,their speed is same in any medium.

How are electrons represented in orbitals?
Alexxx [7]
Electrons move in atomic orbitals (or subshells). there are four different orbital shapes (s p d f). in each shell, the s subshell is at a lower energy than the p. an orbital diagram is used to determine an atom's electron configurations

What are the spiral arms of the milky way made of?
valentinak56 [21]
In short, those arms are made of "stars, dust and gas". They are visible as spiral arms because they have a higher density of those objects than the space between them.
 
The arms are an area where the density of stars (and planets and other objects) is unusually high and where the start are young - recently formed- and this also gives those starts their visibility as young starts are also very bright.
