Answer:

Vi = 24.14 m/s

Explanation:

If we apply Law of Conservation of Energy or Work-Energy Principle here, we get: (neglecting friction)

Loss in K.E of the Rock = Gain in P.E of the Rock

(1/2)(m)(Vi² - Vf²) = mgh

Vi² - Vf² = 2gh

Vi² = Vf² + 2gh

Vi = √(Vf² + 2gh)

where,

Vi = Rock's Speed as it left the ground = ?

Vf = Final Speed = 17 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = height of rock = 15 m

Therefore,

Vi = √[(17 m/s)² + 2(9.8 m/s²)(15 m)]

Vi = √583 m²/s²

<u>Vi = 24.14 m/s</u>

Number 5 and 6 i need just give answer
sashaice [31]

Explanation:

voltage = current × resistance

5.

12 V = 4.2 A × resistance

resistance = 12 V / 4.2 A = 2.857142857... Ohm

FYI :

4.2 A would be a lot for a small electronic device like a CD player. that would be 12×4.2 = 50.4 Watt, and the CD player would get really hot.

6.

120 V = current × 12 Ohm

current = 120 V / 12 Ohm = 10 A

A drop of oil of volume 10m it spread out on water to make a circular firm of radius 10m calculate the tickness of the firm
Effectus [21]

Answer:

h = 3.1 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

The volume of a oil drop, V = 10 m

Radius, r = 10 m

We need to find the thickness of the film. The film is in the form of a cylinder whose volume is as follows :

V=\pi r^2 h\\\\h=\dfrac{V}{\pi r^2}\\\\h=\dfrac{10}{\pi \times 10^2}\\\\h=0.031\ m\\\\h=3.1\ cm

So, the thickness of the film is equal to 3.1 cm.

Why are the wheels on a roller coaster hot after a ride. (I know it’s due to friction but I need more of a detailed answer).
telo118 [61]
2 someone's glasses could fall of because of the inertia
roller coaster is in motion but your glasses are opposing and resisting that motion due to inertia....

1 there is a possibility that electrons move from wheels to the rail and vice versa which also means that it is producing some kind of electrical energy
