Answer:

A.) 62.5 ft

B.) 3.58 seconds

C.) 8.58 seconds

Explanation:

A.) Given that a ball is thrown vertically upward from the top of a building of 60ft with an initial velocity of vA=35 ft/s

To determine how high above the top of the building the ball will go before it stops at B, let us use the third equation of motion.

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

Since the ball is going up, g will be negative. And at maximum height, V = 0

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

0 = 35^2 - 2 × 9.8 × H

19.6H = 1225

H = 1225/19.6

H = 62.5 ft

(B) The time tAB it takes to reach its maximum height will be achieved by using second equation of motion

H = Ut - 1/2gt^2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

62.5 = 35t - 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

62.5 = 35t - 4.9t^2

4.9t^2 - 35t + 62.5 = 0

Let's use quadratic equations to find t

Divide all by 4.9

t^2 - 7.143t + 12.755 = 0

t^2 - 7.143t + 3.57^2 = - 12.755 + 3.57^2

( t - 3.57)^2 = 0.000102

( t - 3.57 ) = +/-( 0.01 )

t = 3.57 + 0.01

t = 3.58 seconds

Ignore the negative one.

(C) the total time tAC needed for it to reach the ground at C from the instant it is released.

When the object is falling back from B, the initial velocity = 0. And the height h will be 60 + 62.5 = 122.5 ft

Using equation 2 of equations of motion again.

h = 1/2gt^2

122.5 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

122.5 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 122.5/4.9

t^2 = 25

t = 5

Total time = 5 + 3.58 = 8.58 seconds

Explanation:

\frac{1}{8}  +  \frac{1}{2}   \\ 1.6 + 1.4 = 3 \\  \frac{1}{3}  +  \frac{1}{9}   \\ 2.25 + 2 = 4.25 \: ohm

R total = 4.25 ohm

I total = Vt/Rt

I total= 17/4.25= 4 A

Ix= 600 mA

\frac{9}{9 + 3}  \times 4 = 3\\   \frac{2}{2 + 8} \times 3 = 0.6a \\  = 0.6 \: milli \: amper

Compute the theoretical density of ZnS given that the Zn-S distance and bond angle are 0.234 nm and 109.5o, respectively. The at
andriy [413]

Answer: the theoretical density is 4.1109 g/cm³

Explanation:  

first the image of one set of ZnS bonding in the crystal structure, we calculate the value of angle θ

θ + ∅ + 90° = 180°

θ = 90° - ∅

θ = 90° - ( 109.5° / 2 )

θ = 35.25°

next we calculate the value of x from the geometry

given that;  distance angle d = 0.234

x = dsinθ

= 0.234 × sin35.25°)

= 0.135 nm = 0.135 × 10⁻⁷ cm

next we calculate the length of the unit cell

a = 4x

a = 4(0.135)

a = 0.54 nm = 0.54 × 10⁻⁷ cm

next we calculate number of formula units

n' = (no of corner atoms in unit ell × contribution of each corner atom in unit cell) + ( no of face center atom in a unit cell × contribution of each face center atom in a unit cell)

n' = 8 × 1/8) + ( 6 × 1/2)

= 1 + 3

= 4

next we calculate the theoretical density using  this equation

P = [n'∑(Ac + AA)] / [Vc.NA]

= [n'∑(Ac + AA)] / [(a)³NA]

where the ∑Ac is sum of atomic weights of all cations in the formula unit( 65.41 g/mol)

∑AA is the sum of weights of all anions in the formula unit( 32.06 g/mol)

Na is the Avogadro’s number( 6.023 × 10²³ units/mole)

so we substitute

P = [4( 65.41 + 32.06)] / [ ( 0.54 × 10⁻⁷ )³ × (6.023 × 10²³)]

= 389.88 / 94.84

= 4.1109 g/cm³

therefore the theoretical density is 4.1109 g/cm³

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

(d) None. No provisions exist.

Explanation:

B&P Code § 6738 prohibits a non-licensed person from being the sole proprietor of an engineering business. The non-licensed can be a partner in an engineering business that offers civil, electrical, or mechanical services. It is mandatory that at least one licensed engineer must be a co-owner of the business.
