Answer:

Ok, we know that you drop a tomato of mass M from a height h, because you drop it, it has not initial velocity.

Now, the kinetic energy is:

K = (M/2)*v^2

because at the begginig there is not velocity, the kinetic energy is zero.

the potential energy is:

U = M*g*h

where g = 9.8m/s^2

We know that when the tomato hits the ground, the 85.6% of these potential energy is converted in kinetic; so we have:

K = 0.856*M*g*h = (1/2)*M*v^2

M can be canceled in both sides:

v^2 = 2*0.856*g*h

v = √(1.712*g*h)

is the velocity of the tomato when it hits the ground.

Answer:

v = 4.1 \sqrt{h}

Explanation:

Let the mass of tomato is m and the height from which it falls is h.

Let the tomato its the ground with velocity v.

The potential energy of the tomato at height h

U = m x g x h

The kinetic energy of tomato as it hits the ground

K = 1/2 mv^2

According to the question,

85.6 % of Potential energy = Kinetic energy

\frac{85.6}{100}\times m\times g\times h = \frac{1}{2}\times m\times v^{2}

v = 4.1 \sqrt{h}

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The answer is "15.38\%"

Explanation:

Background= 13 \ mv\\\\

corrected signal= 91 \ mv-13\ mv= 78\ mv\\\\

with attenuator=25\ mv-13\ mv= 12\ mv\\\\

\to \frac{p_t}{p_i}=\frac{12}{78}\times 100= 15.38\%

When electric current is flowing in a metal, the electrons are movinga. at nearly the speed of light.b. at the speed of sound in
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Option (d)

Explanation:

The electrons in a conductor moves with the drift velocity when the electric current is flowing through the conductor.

The drift velocity is due to the applied electric field across the conductor.

What does Pascal's Law state? what are the implications of Pascal's law?
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Pascal's Law states that the pressure applied to a fluid in a closed container is transmitted equally to all points in the fluid and act in all directions of the container. ... Therefore, it can rightly be said that since the liquid does not flow, it definitely has equal pressure acting on it at all the points.
