Here's an interesting challenge you can give to a friend. Hold a $1 bill by the upper corner. Have a friend prepare to pinch the

lower corner, putting their fingers near but not touching the bill. Tell them to try to catch the bill when you drop it simply by closing their fingers. It seems easy but it isn't. It would take them about 0.25 seconds to react and close their fingers— which isn't fast enough to catch the bill. How much time does it take for the bill to fall beyond her grasp? The length of the bill is 16cm.

The formula for falling in gravity from rest is

D = (1/2) (g) (t)²

Distance = (1/2) (gravity) (falling time)²

Solve this for time, and you find that

Time = √(2·distance/gravity)

For this problem, distance = 16 cm, and gravity on Earth always = 9.8 m/s².

Write those numbers in, and we get

Time = √(32 cm) / (9.8 m/s²)

time = √(0.32 / 9.8) (s²)

time = 0.18 second

The whole dollar bill falls through the catcher's fingers before he can pinch.  THAT's why a person can't react fast enough to catch the falling bill.

I would say that it would take her 35 * 2 cashing Bill properly because I multiply 0.25 times 16 which gave me 1.50 + 2.50 equals 3.50

Which statement describes the magnetic field inside a bar magnet? It points from north to south. It points from south to north.
Levart [38]

Inside the bar magnet, the magnetic field points from north to south. Statement A is correct.

Magnetic Field:

It is defined as a vector field or the influence of the magnet on the electric current, charges and ferromagnetic substance.

The strength of magnetic field is depends up on the numbers of magnetic field lines per unit area.

  • Magnetic field lines emerge from the North pole and end in the South pole of a bar magnet.
  • Inside the magnet are also present inside the bar magnet and never intersect at any point.

Therefore, inside the bar magnet, the magnetic field points from north to south.

The mass of a radioactive substance follows a continuous exponential decay model, with a decay rate parameter of 1% per day. A s
Bumek [7]

Answer:

2,38kg

Explanation:

Mass in function of time can be found by the formula: m_{(t)} =m_{0} e^{-kt}, where m_{0} is the initial mass, t is the time and k is a constant.

Given that a sample decay 1% per day, that means that after first day you have 99% of mass.

m_{(1)} =m_{0} e^{-k(1)}, but m_{(1)}=\frac{99m_{0} }{100}, so we have \frac{99m_{0} }{100}=m_{0}e^{-k}, then k=-ln(\frac{99}{100})=0.01

Now using k found we must to find m_{(5)}.

m_{(5)}=m_{0}e^{-(0.01)5}=2.5kge^{-0.05} =2.5x0.951=2.38kg
