Answer:

Terminal speed= 1,826.51m/s

Explanation:

Volume of a sphere is given by: V=4/3pir^3

Where r is radius of sphere

V=4×3.142×(8)^2/3

V= 2144.66cm^3

Converting to meters

V=2144.66cm^3×(1m^3/ 1×10^-6cm^3)

V= 2.145×10^-3m^3

Area of sphereA= pi(8)^2

A= 3.142×64=210.6cm^3

Converting to meter

201cm^×(1m/10000cm^2)

A=0.0210m^2

Given:

Density of shere= 1.00kg/m^3

Drag coefficient =0.500

Mass of sphere=?

Density of sphere= mass of sphere / volume of shere

Mass= 2144.66cm^3×1.00kgcm^3

Mass= 2144.66kg

Terminal speed,VT= Sqrt(2mg)/(DpA)

VT= Sqrt( 2×( 2144.66)×9.8))/(0.500×1.20×0.021)

VT= Sqrt(42035.34/0.0126)

VT=Sqrt(3,336,137.78)

VT= 1,826.51m/s

Answer:

Explanation:

m = p_sphere*V A = pi*r^2 v_t= sqrt(2mg/Dp_airA)

The Attempt at a Solution

m = (870 kg/m^3)(4/3)pi(0.085 m)^3 = 2.24 kg

A = pi(0.085 m)^2 = 0.0227 m^2 v_t = sqrt[2(2.24 kg)(9.80 m/s^2)/(0.500)(1.20 kg/m^3)(0.0227 m^3)] = 56.8 m/s

why does diving 30m below sea level affect our bodies more than being in a building 30m above sea level
Genrish500 [490]
Imagine you are in a swimming pool 30m deep. Assuming you know that water is denser than air, you would know that the 30m of water above you will carry more weight, and press down on your body. Say you were in a swimming pool 60m deep, you would be sandwiched between 30m of water pressing down on you, and the upthrust created by the 30m of water below you.

In a building 30m up, the pressure will be regulated, as you are in a building. The floor will be strong enough to support the weight of the body, and the body will not recoil into itself.

How do you appreciate sweating mechanism of human body to control the temperature of the body?​
ehidna [41]

Explanation:

When the body temperature tends to rise, such as during physical exercise, the body begins to sweat. The sweat with high water content is secreted in the skin and when it evaporates into the environment, it cools the body. This is due to the property of water having high heat capacity. It carries with it a lot of heat per molecule (because water requires much energy – than most materials - for its temperature to rise by a degree) hence ideal for cooling. This is why on a hot day, sweating makes the skin feel cooler than the surrounding.

A "biconvex" lens is one in which both surfaces of the lens bulge outwards. Suppose you had a biconvex lens with radii of curvat
Stolb23 [73]

Answer: f=150cm in water and f=60cm in air.

Explanation: Focal length is a measurement of how strong light is converged or diverged by a system. To find the variable, it can be used the formula:

\frac{1}{f} = (nglass - ni)(\frac{1}{R1} - \frac{1}{R2}).

nglass is the index of refraction of the glass;

ni is the index of refraction of the medium you want, water in this case;

R1 is the curvature through which light enters the lens;

R2 is the curvature of the surface which it exits the lens;

Substituting and calculating for water (nwater = 1.3):

\frac{1}{f} = (1.5 - 1.3)(\frac{1}{10} - \frac{1}{15})

\frac{1}{f} = 0.2(\frac{1}{30})

f = \frac{30}{0.2} = 150

For air (nair = 1):

\frac{1}{f} = (1.5 - 1)(\frac{1}{10} - \frac{1}{15})

f = \frac{30}{0.5} = 60

In water, the focal length of the lens is f = 150cm.

In air, f = 60cm.

Which process is an example of a physical change?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Option A

Carrots are cut into small pieces and mixed into a salad

Explanation:

When physical changes occur, the actual composition remain the same but the molecules are re-arranged. Therefore, when carrots are cut into smaller pieces and mixed into salad, there will be no chemical reaction hence the actual composition will remain the same despite being cut and molecules in it re-arranged. Considering the other options, new substances are formed hence they are deemed as chemical changes. Therefore, option A is correct.
