If a ball is dropped from a height its velocity will increase until it hits the ground, assuming that aerodynamic drag due to th

e air is negligible. During its fall, its initial potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. If the ball is dropped from a height of 800 centimeters [cm], and the impact velocity is 41 feet per second [ft/s], determine the value of gravity in units of meters per second squared [m/s2].

Answer:

g = 9.69 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

height from where ball is dropped = 800 cm = 8 m

impact velocity = 41 ft/s = 41 × 0.3048 = 12.45 m/s

acceleration due to gravity = ?    

initial potential energy is given by

PE = m g h                          

     = m g × 8                            

     = 8 mg..............(1)

now final kinetic energy

KE= \dfrac{1}{2}m(v)^2

KE= \dfrac{1}{2}m(12.45)^2

            =77.50 m.....................(2)

comparing equation (1) to (2)

8 mg = 77.50 m

g = 77.5/8

g = 9.69 m/s²

What is the first test you should do when checking the charging system?
yan [13]

Answer:

Connect the test light in series with the negative post, and start pulling feed wires. The first to check is the heavy charging wire from the alternator. A bad or leaky diode in an alternator is a very common source of overnight battery drain. Connect wires one at a time to see what lead is drawing current.

Using the celsius_to_kelvin function as a guide, create a new function, changing the name to kelvin_to_celsius, and modifying th
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

# kelvin_to_celsius function is defined

# it has value_kelvin as argument

def kelvin_to_celsius(value_kelvin):

   # value_celsius is initialized to 0.0

   value_celsius = 0.0

   

   # value_celsius is calculated by

   # subtracting 273.15 from value_kelvin

   value_celsius = value_kelvin - 273.15

   # value_celsius is returned

   return value_celsius

   

# celsius_to_kelvin function is defined

# it has value_celsius as argument

def celsius_to_kelvin(value_celsius):

   # value_kelvin is initialized to 0.0

   value_kelvin = 0.0

   

   # value_kelvin is calculated by

   # adding 273.15 to value_celsius

   value_kelvin = value_celsius + 273.15

   # value_kelvin is returned

   return value_kelvin

   

value_c = 0.0

value_k = 0.0

value_c = 10.0

# value_c = 10.0 is used to test the function celsius_to_kelvin

# the result is displayed

print(value_c, 'C is', celsius_to_kelvin(value_c), 'K')

value_k = 283.15

# value_k = 283.15 is used to test the function kelvin_to_celsius

# the result is displayed

print(value_k, 'is', kelvin_to_celsius(value_k), 'C')

Answer:

The correct option is;

B) Metamorphic Rocks

Explanation:

Zoisite, which is also referred to saualpite, is a metamorphic rock which is a hydroxy sorosilicate mineral formed from other types of rocks such as sedimentary, metamorphic and ingenious rocks in the process of their metamorphism under the presence high temperatures and pressures and mineral fluids which are hot

Zoiste is named after Sigmund Zois by Abraham Gottlob Werner in 1805 when Sigmund Zois sent Abraham Gottlob Werner the mineral specimen from Saualpe in 1805
