<h2>Height of cliff is 66.43 meter.</h2>

Explanation:

Consider the horizontal motion of shell,

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 1770 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²  

        Displacement, s = 6520 m      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                     6520 = 1770 x t + 0.5 x 0 xt²

                      t = 3.68 s

      Time of flight of shell = 3.68 s.

Now consider the vertical motion of shell,

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Time, t = 3.68 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 0 x 3.68 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 3.68²

                      s = 66.43 m

      Height of cliff is 66.43 meter.

erik [133]

Answer:

E_total = 1.30 10¹⁰ C / m²

Explanation:

The intensity of the electric field is

     E = k q / r²

on a positive charge proof

The total electric field at the midpoint is

as q₁= 6 10⁻⁶ C the field is outgoing to the right

for charge q₂ = -3 10⁻⁶ C, the field is directed to the right, therefore

E_total = E₁ + E₂

E_total = k q₁ / r₁² + k q₂ / r₂²

r₁ = r₂ = r = 4 10⁻² m

E_total = k/r² (q₁ + q₂)

 we calculate

E_total = 9 10⁹ / (4 10⁻²)²   (6.0 10⁻⁶ +3.0 10⁻⁶)

E_total = 1.30 10¹⁰ C / m²

What quantities are related by Ohm's law? Check all that apply. voltage conductivity current resistance insulation
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer: Current, resistance and voltage are the quantities which are related by Ohm's law.

Explanation:

A law which states that electric current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance is called Ohm's law.

Mathematically, it is represented as follows.

I = \frac{V}{R}

where,

I = current

V = voltage

R = resistance

This means that the quantities related by Ohm's law include current, voltage and resistance.

Thus, we can conclude that current, resistance and voltage are the quantities which are related by Ohm's law.

Is visible light a form of<br> radiation? Explain.
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Yes,in fact visible 'light' is a form of radiation, which can be defined as an energy that travels in the form of electromagnetic waves. It can also be described as a flow of particle-like 'wave-packets', called photons, that travel constantly at the speed of light (about 300 000 kilometres per second).
