Answer:

t = 2.13 s

Explanation:

given,

height of the building = 22.3 m

horizontal distance = 127 m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

time for which ball is in motion = ?

using equation of motion

s = u t + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

initial velocity is zero

s = \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2s}{g}}

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 22.3}{9.8}}

       t = √4.551

        t = 2.13 s

A brass washer has an outside diameter of 4.50 cm with a hole of diameter 1.25 cm and is 1.50 mm thick. The density of brass is
-Dominant- [34]
We will find the mass from 
mass = density x volume 
We are told the density and must find the volume from the dimensions given 
the volume of the washer will be the area x thickness (remembering to convert all measurements to meters) 
if the washer had no hole, its area would be pi (0.0225m)^2 (remember to convert to meters and to use radius) 
the area of the hole is pi(0.00625m)^2 
so the area of the washer is pi[(0.0225m)^2 - (0.00625m)^2] = 1.5x10^-3 m 
the volume of the washer is 1.5x10^-3 m x 1.5x10^-3 m = 2.25x10^-6 m^3 (the thickness of the washer is 1.5 mm = 1.5x10^-3m) 
thus, the mass of the washer = 8598kg/m^3 x 2.25x10^-6m^3 = 0.0189kg = 18.9 grams

While trees are not the largest level in the pyramid of numbers, they are still the base for both the pyramids of biomass and py
Oxana [17]
It is true because <span>A pyramid of biomass is a representation of the amount of energy contained in biomass, at different trophic levels for a given point in time . The amount of energy available to one trophic level is limited by the amount stored by the level below. Because energy is lost in the transfer from one level to the next, there is successively less total energy as you move up trophic levels. Tree is a base as it provides food and energy.</span>

Given a block of glass that is semi-circular, a laser pointer, protractor/ruler, and index card, design your own experiment to o
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

Explanation:

To design the experiment of measuring the critical angle, we describe the phenomenon, when the light passes from a medium with a higher refractive index to one with a lower index, it separates from the normal one and the Critical Angle is defined as the Angle for which the refraction occurs at 90º

            n₂ sin θ₂ = n₁ sin 90

           n₁ / n₂ = sin θ₂

As we can see, we have to measure the angle with which the laser touches the exit surface of the glass block.

Design of the experiment:

    We place the glass block on the ramp and at the top we hit the conveyor for half the angle, we climb the block on the ramp and see that the angle of incidence of lightning on the exit face changes, part of the beam comes out of the glass , we see it by dispersion in the particles of dirty in the air; Maybe the conveyor or the laser should be moved slightly so that the beam touches the point of origin on the conveyor.

   

   When we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.
