Velocity of a Hot-Air Balloon A hot-air balloon rises vertically from the ground so that its height after t sec is given by the
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the height reached by a balloon after t sec modeled by the equation

h=1/2t²+1/2t

a) To calculate the height of the balloon after 40 secs we will substitute t = 40 into the modeled equation and calculate the value of t

If h(t)=1/2t²+1/2t

h(40) = 1/2(40)²+1/2 (40)

h(40) = 1600/2 + 40/2

h(40) = 800 + 20

h(40) = 820 feet

The height of the balloon after 40 secs is 820 feet

b) Velocity is the change of displacement of a body with respect to time.

v = dh/dt

v(t) = 2(1/2)t²⁻¹ + 1/2

v(t) = t + 1/2

when v = 0sec

v(0) = 0 + 1/2

v(0) = 1/2 ft/sec

at v = 30secs

v(30) = 30 + 1/2

v(30) = 30 1/2 ft/sec

average velocity = v(30) - v(0)

average velocity = 30 1/2 - 1/2

average velocity of the balloon between t = 0 and t = 30 = 30 ft/sec

c) Velocity is the change of displacement of a body with respect to time.

v = dh/dt

v(t) = 2(1/2)t²⁻¹ + 1/2

v(t) = t + 1/2

The velocity of the balloon after 30secs will be;

v(30) = 30+1/2

v(30) = 30.5ft/sec

The velocity of the balloon after 30 secs is 30.5 feet/sec

Two of the types of infrared light, ir-c and ir-a, are both components of sunlight. their wavelengths range from 3000 to 1,000,0
NikAS [45]
The energy of a light wave is calculated using the formula
E = hc/λ
h is the Planck's constant
c is the speed of light
λ is the wavelength
For the ir-c, the range is
<span>6.63 x 10^-34 (3x10^8) / 3000 = 6.63 x 10 ^-29 J
</span>6.63 x 10^-34 (3x10^8) / 1000000 = 1.99 x 10^-31 J

For the ir-a, the range is
6.63 x 10^-34 (3x10^8) / 700 = 2.84 x 10^-28 J
6.63 x 10^-34 (3x10^8) / 1400 = 1.42 x 10^-28 J

Which shows the correct lens equation? The inverse of f equals the inverse of d Subscript o Baseline times the inverse of d Subs
musickatia [10]

Answer:

The inverse of f equals the inverse of d Subscript o Baseline plus the inverse of d Subscript I Baseline.

Explanation:

The lens equation shows the relation among focal length of the lens, image distance and object distance. It can be expressed as:

  \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_{o} } + \frac{1}{d_{I} }

where: f is the focal length of the lens, d_{o} is the object distance to the lens and d_{I} is the image distance to the lens.

The lens equation can be used to determine the unknown value among the variables f , d_{o} and d_{o}.

A closed system’s internal energy changes by 178 J as a result of being heated with 658 J of energy.
statuscvo [17]
Internal energy of the system changes by ΔE = 178 J.
Heat given to the system = Q = +658 J.

According to the first law of thermodynamics, 
ΔE = Q + W
178 = 658 + W 
∴ W = 178-658 = -480 J

Minus sign indicates that work is done by the system.
