Distance of fall from rest,
without air resistance              =  (1/2) (gravity) (time)²

                                             = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (95 sec)²

                                             =  (4.9 m/s²) (9,025 sec²)

                                             =        44,222.5 meters  .

The depth of the mine shaft is five times the height of Mt. Everest !

MAVERICK [17]
Protons do not move out of the nucleus of atoms although they repel each other.

Remember that protons are particles with positive charge and they held together in the nucleus of the atom which is a tiny tiny region. As you know, like charges repel each other, which means that the protons exert a repulsion force.

You pull a solid nickel ball with a density of 8.91 g/cm3 and a radius of 1.40 cm upward through a fluid at a constant speed of
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

P = 1.090\,N

Explanation:

The constant speed means that ball is not experimenting acceleration. This elements is modelled by using the following equation of equilibrium:

\Sigma F = P - W + F_{D}

\Sigma F = P - \rho \cdot V \cdot g + c\cdot v = 0

Now, the exerted force is:

P = \rho \cdot V \cdot g - c\cdot v

The volume of a sphere is:

V = \frac{4\cdot \pi}{3}\cdot R^{3}

V = \frac{4\cdot \pi}{3}\cdot (0.014\,m)^{3}

V = 1.149\times 10^{-5}\,m^{3}

Lastly, the force is calculated:

P = (8910\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (1.149\cdot 10^{-5}\,m^{3})\cdot (9.81\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )+(0.950\,\frac{kg}{s})\cdot (0.09\,\frac{m}{s} )

P = 1.090\,N

Choose the scenario in which the sound frequency of the waves is higher.
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

B) the sound source moves towards you at 100 m/sec

Explanation:

The Dopper Effect is a phenomenon that occur when there is relative motion between an observer and a source of a wave. When this situation occurs, there is an apparent shift in frequency of the wave, as observed by the observer.

The apparent frequency observed by the observer is given by

f'=\frac{v\pm v_o}{v\pm v_s}f

where

f is the original frequency of the wave

f' is the apparent frequency

v is the speed of the wave

v_o is the velocity of the observer (positive if moving towards the source of the wave, negative otherwise)

v_s is the velocity of the source (negative if moving towards from the observer, positive otherwise)

In this problem, we want to find the scenario in which the sound frequency is higher.

We see that in all 4 scenarios, the sound source is moving: this means we have to find the scenario in which the denominator of the equation is smaller.

First of all, we notice the sound source moves towards the observer, v_s is negative, so the denominator is higher: this means that the correct option must be either A or B.

Also, we notice that since v_s is negative, a value larger in magnitude will mean a smaller denominator: therefore, the correct answer will be

B) the sound source moves towards you at 100 m/sec

Since this situation will make the denominator of the formula the smallest possible.
