Answer:

<em>The velocity of the ball as it hit the ground = 19.799 m/s</em>

Explanation:

Velocity: Velocity of a body can be defined as the rate of change of displacement of the body. The S.I unit of velocity is m/s. velocity is expressed in one of newtons equation of motion, and is given below.

v² = u² + 2gs.......................... Equation 1

Where v = the final velocity of the ball, g = acceleration due to gravity, s = the height of the ball

<em>Given: s = 20 m, u = 0 m/s</em>

<em>Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>v² = 0 + 2×9.8×20</em>

<em>v² = 392</em>

<em>v = √392</em>

<em>v = 19.799 m/s.</em>

<em>Therefore the velocity of the ball as it hit the ground = 19.799 m/s</em>

When an elevator is accelerating downward, the normal force is equal to mg-ma (hence you feel a little lighter when accelerating downwards)

Therefore, the upward force of the elevator floor on the person must be less than 750N

In addition to observing wind speed, wind direction, temperature, air pressure, and humidity, meteorologists observe what?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Precipitation amounts

Explanation:

Meteorologists are scientists whose job is to predict different weather weather conditions. They study the atmosphere of the earth thoroughly so as to make a clear and concise weather forecast.

Meteorologists makes it possible for people to get information on possible rainfall or sunshine, it also enable people to know about a possible hurricance occurrence.

Meteorologists make use of a variety of tools to predict the weather, they include: wind vanes, barometers, anemometers, rain gauges, thermometer, hydrometer, Campbell Stokes Recorder,Transmissometer.

A sample of helium behaves as an ideal gas as energy is
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

0.0321 g

Explanation:

Let helium specific heat c_h = 5.193 J/g K

Assuming no energy is lost in the process, by the law of energy conservation we can state that the 20J work done is from the heat transfer to heat it up from 273K to 393K, which is a difference of ΔT = 393 - 273 = 120 K. We have the following heat transfer equation:

E_h = m_hc_h \Delta T = 20 J

where m_h is the mass of helium, which we are looking for:

m_h = \frac{20}{c_h \Delta T} = \frac{20}{5.193 * 120} \approx 0.0321 g

HELP PLEASE BOYLES LAW
kogti [31]

Answer:

3 L

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 2 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 0.75 atm

Final pressure (P₂) = 0.5 atm

Final volume (V₂) =?

Using the Boyle's law equation, the new volume (i.e final volume) of the Ne gas can be obtained as:

Initial volume (V₁) = 2 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 0.75 atm

Final pressure (P₂) = 0.5 atm

Final volume (V₂) =?

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

0.75 × 2 = 0.5 × V₂

1.5 = 0.5 × V₂

Divide both side by 0.5

V₂ = 1.5 / 0.5

V₂ = 3 L

Thus, the new volume of the Ne gas is 3 L
