A brick is dropped from a high scaffold. a. What is its velocity after 4.0s ?

Physics
1 answer:
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A: 1.962

B: 3.924

Explanation:

g = G *M /R^2

g = 9.807*M/R^2 the gravitational constant of ground level on earth is about 9.807

g = 9.807*5lbs/R^2 the average brick is about 5 pounds.

g = 9.807*5*10^2.   I'm assuming the height is around ten feet to help you out.

with these numbers plugged in you get an acceleration of 0.4905 a final velocity after 4 seconds 1.962. It's height fallen after 4 seconds is 3.924.

( M = whatever the brick weighs it's not specified in the question)

(R = the distance from the ground or how high the scaffold is)

(hopefully you can just plug your numbers in there hope this helps)

Question I. SUHU ULT
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Feathers are great thermal insulators.

Explanation:

Feathers are great thermal insulators. The loose structure of down feathers traps air.

As a result, energy cannot be transmitted easily through down feathers. This means birds are insulated from cold air outside, plus their body heat doesn't escape easily either.

Human beings discovered that down feathers are good for insulation long ago. For example, documents from the 1600s show that Russian merchants sold “bird down" to the Dutch hundreds of years ago.

Today, down is used in all sorts of products, including coats, bedding, and sleeping bags, to help better insulate the user from cold weather. Down can be collected from many different types of birds, but most of today's supply comes from domestic geese.

If you have a down coat or comforter, is it all down? In the United States, laws require that products labeled “100 percent down" contain only down feathers.

If your product is labeled “down," it can contain a mixture of both down feathers and synthetic fibers. Not all down feathers are created equal, though.

Down insulation is rated on a measure called “fill power." The higher the fill power, the more the down insulates.

The highest fill-power rating — 1200 — goes to eiderdown, which comes from the Common Eider duck. Eiderdown tends to be expensive.

In your own words, explain how solar heating works
mestny [16]

Answer:

active solar heating systems use solar energy to heat a fluid either liquid or air and then transfer the solar heat directly to the interior space or to a storage system for later use. If the solar system cannot provide adequate space heating, an auxiliary or back-up system provides the additional heat.

hope this helps : )

Why did the “yielders” conform in Asch’s experiment?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Asch's experiment showed that about 75% of people were "yielders" who conformed and 25% were "independent" who didn't conform. Asch concludes that people ignored reality and gave an incorrect answer in order to follow the rest of the group.
