You and your friend throw balloons filled with water from the roof of a several story apartment house. You simply drop a balloon

from rest. A second balloon is thrown downward by your friend 2.2 s later with an initial speed of 43.12 m/s. They hit the ground simultaneously. How high is the apartment house? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Neglect air resistance. Answer in units of m.

Answer:

Height = 53.361 m

Explanation:

There are two balloons being thrown down, one with initial speed (u1) = 0 and the other with initial speed (u2) = 43.12

From the given information we make the following summary

u_{1} = 0m/s

t_{1} = t

u_{2} = 43.12m/s

t_{2} = (t-2.2)s

The distance by the first balloon is

D = u_{1} t_{1}  + \frac{1}{2} at_{1}^2

where

a = 9.8m/s2

Inputting the values

D = (0)t + \frac{1}{2} (9.8)t^2\\ D = 4.9t^2

The distance traveled by the second balloon

D = u_{2} t_{2}  + \frac{1}{2} at_{2}^2

Inputting the values

D = (43.12)(t-2.2)  + \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(t-2.2)^2

simplifying

D = 4.9t^2 + 21.56t -71.148

Substituting D of the first balloon into the D of the second balloon and solving

4.9t^2 = 4.9t^2 + 21.56t -71.148 \\ 21.56t = 71.148\\ t = 3.3s

Now we know the value of t. We input this into the equation of the first balloon the to get height of the apartment

D = 4.9(3.3)^2\\ D = 53.361 m

A horizontal force of 100 N is required to push a 50 kg crate across a factory floor at a constant speed. What is the accelerati
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

a = 2m/s^2

Explanation:

Force (F) = 100 N

Mass (m) = 50 kg

Here,

F = m×a

100 = 50 × a

a = 100÷50

a = 2m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration on the cart is a = 2m/s^2

An experimental tungsten light bulb filament has a length of 5 cm and a diameter of 0.074 cm. The filament is basically just a w
adell [148]

Answer:

power emitted is 1.75 W

Explanation:

given data

length l = 5 cm = 5 ×10^{-2} m

diameter d = 0.074 cm = 74 ×10^{-5} m

total filament emissivity = 0.300

temperature = 3068 K

to find out

power emitted

solution

we find first area that is π×d×L

area = π×d×L

area = π×74 ×10^{-5}×5 ×10^{-2}

area = 1162.3892  ×10^{-5} m²

so here power emitted  is express as

power emitted  = E × σ × area × (temperature)^4

put here all value

power emitted  = 0.300× 5.67 × 1162.3892  ×10^{-5}  × (3068)^4

power emitted = 1.75 W

If you connect two identical storage batteries together in series (" " to "-"), and place them in a circuit, the combination wil
Lelu [443]

Answer:

4 (D): twice the voltage, and the same current will flow through each.

Explanation:

When we have batteries in series in a circuit, the equivalent voltage will be the sum of their voltages, and the current flowing through then will be the same.

These batteries are identical, so they have the same voltage, therefore when they are put in series, the equivalent voltage will be twice the voltage of one battery.

So the correct option is 4 (D): twice the voltage, and the same current will flow through each.
