A bomb falls with velocity v(t)=C(1−e−kt), where C and k are constants. What is the terminal velocity of the bomb? That is, what

is the maximum valocity the bomb can reach regardless of the height of the bomber?

Answer:

The terminal velocity is equal to C.

Explanation:

Making the assumption that k and t are positive, we then have that -kt is negative. The value of e^(-kt) will be equal to 1/(e^(kt))

If t increases, e^(kt) will increase exponentially and its reciprocal 1/(e^(kt)) will approach zero.

So, we have:

v(t) = C*(1-0)

v(t) = C*(1)

v(t) = C

Therefore, C is the terminal velocity.

How does water get to the tops of the tallest trees against the force of gravity
alexira [117]
Water gets to the leaves in the tops of the tallest trees by something called the cohesion-tension theory. Water has two very unique properties called adhesion and cohesion. Cohesion is the tendency of water molecules to stick together with one another. The water sticks together, leaving no room for air, strengthening the "force" of the water going up the tree. The water also sticks to the sides of the xylem inside the tree. In addition to these properties, there are also the factors of negative and positive water potential. For more information, look up more details of the cohesion-tension theory.

Ksivusya [100]
<span>Diamond slowdown light more than Quartz , because diamonds have a greater index of refraction. Light will bend when its move from one medium to another. The Index of Refraction of Material is found by comparing the speed of light in their respective mediums.</span>

Light travels in a straight line at a constant speed of 300000 m/s. What is the acceleration of light?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

As light travels in a straight line at a constant speed, it's acceleration is <u>0 m/s²</u>.

There is no rate of change of speed, so there is no acceleration.

  • <u>0 m/s²</u> is the right answer.

you toss a bowling ball straight up into the air with a speed of 2.1. how long does it take the bowling ball to reach its highes
omeli [17]
I am going to assume 2.1 metres per second and that we're rounding acceleration due to gravity to -10 metres per second squared. At the highest point, velocity is going to be 0. v= intial velocity + acceleration*time, sub in 0 for velocity, 2.1 for initial velocity and -10 for acceleration to get 0= 2.1-10t. Now solve for t. t=0.21 seconds.
