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

forsale [732]

Answer:

(1) V = 0.2 J (2) 0.05J

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

K = 160 N/m

x = 0.05 m

Now,

(1) we solve for the  initial potential energy stored

Thus,

V = 1/2 kx² = 0.5 * 160 * (0.05)²

Therefore V = 0.2 J

(2)Now, we solve for how much of the internal energy is produced as the toy springs up to its maximum height.

By using the energy conversion, we have the following

ΔV = mgh

=(0.1/9.8) * 9.8 * 1.5 = 0.15J

The internal energy = 0.2 -0.15

=0.05J

which of these best explains why the hydrogen atoms in a water molecule are attracted to CI ions in sodium chloride
matrenka [14]
The oxygen has more electronegativity (3.44), making hydrogen more 'positive'. Hydrogen will be attracted to Cl since it is more 'negative'. Electronegativity(EN) of H is 2.2 whereas Cl has EN of 3.16

A swan on a lake gets airborne by flapping its wings and running on top of the water. If the swan must reach a velocity of 6.00
ira [324]

Answer:

A. 51.42 m.

B. 17.14 s.

Explanation:

Using equations of motion:

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2 * aS

Where,

vf = final velocity

a = acceleration

S = distance to which swan traveled

vi = 0 m/s

6.00^2 = 2 * 0.350S

S = 36/0.7

= 51.42 m.

B.

vf = vi + at

6 = 0 + 0.35t

t = 6/0.35

= 17.14 s.
