Answer:

maximum height = 31.63 m

Explanation:

Please notice that the units of velocity that you were giving are incorrect. They should be m/s. The ones given in the problem are in fact units of acceleration (not velocity). I am assuming that the initial velocity of the rock is 24.9 m/s to solve this problem.

Let's start by finding the time it takes the rock to reach that maximum height at which point, the velocity of the rock will be zero (just before changing its direction of movement and starting heading down.

We can use the fact that the initial velocity (v_i) of the rock is 24.9 m/s, the final velocity (v_f) at the maximum height is zero, and that the only acceleration it is getting is that of gravity (g) slowing down it motion:

v_f-v_i=-g\,*\,t\\0-24.9=-9.8\,*\,t\\t=\frac{-24.9}{-9.8} \\t=2.54\,s

Now we can use this time it takes the rock to reach the maximum height, in the kinematic expression for the distance covered:

y_f-y_i=v_i\,*\,t-\frac{1}{2} \,g\,*\,t^2\\y_f-y_i=24.9\,(2.54)-\frac{1}{2} \,9.8\,*\,(2.54)^2\\y_f-y_i=31.63\,m

The units of height will come directly in meters (m) after evaluating, since we use all the quantities in the SI system.

The volume of a gas is 605 liters at 27.0°C. The new temperature is -3.0°C. What is the new volume?
nlexa [21]
From p1v1/t1 = p2v2/t2
pressure unchanged ... cancelled out
v1=605 , t1=27C = 300K,
t2=-3C = 270K
***remember temperature must be in Kelvin
we got
605/300 = v2/270
v2 = 545

A/An _____ is described as a device used to store electrical energy, usually two conductors separated by an insulator.
Daniel [21]

Answer: A capacitor.

Explanation:

The capacitor is a passive element that is used in electronics to store electrical energy maintaining an electrical field. The simpler case of a capacitor is the parallel plates capacitor.

It consists of two parallel metal plates separated by a distance D, in this case, the air between the plates works as a dielectric, as the plates do not touch each other and are separated by a dielectric, the charge is stored in the surface plates.

There are a lot of other types of capacitors, the most used in actuality may be the cylindrical one, where instead of parallel plates, it uses two concentric cylinders, and the space between the cylinders is filled with a dielectric/insulator.

-- find the horizontal and vertical components of F1.

-- find the horizontal and vertical components of F2.

-- find the horizontal and vertical components of F3.

-- add up the 3 horizontal components; their sum is the horizontal component of the resultant.

-- add up the 3 vertical components; their sum is the vertical component of the resultant.

-- the magnitude of the resultant is the square root of (vertical component^2 + horizontal component^2)

-- the direction of the resultant is the angle whose tangent is (vertical component/horizontal component), starting from the positive x-direction.
