To determine the height of a tall building such as Sears Tower in Chicago, Illinois a ball was dropped from the top of the build
Darya [45]

Answer:

The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 feet.

Explanation:

<h3>We apply the free fall formula to the ball: </h3><h3>y=v_{o} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2}</h3><h3>y: The vertical distance the ball moves at time t  </h3><h3>v_{o}i: Initial speed </h3><h3>g=Gravity acceleration=9.8*(\frac{\frac{1ft}{0.305m} }{s^{2} } )</h3>

Known information

We know that the vertical distance (y) that the ball moves in 9,5s  is equal to height of Sears Tower (h).  

Too we know that the ball is released from rest, then,v_{0}=0

Height of Sears Tower calculation:

We replace  in the equation 1 the data following;

y=h

v_{o} =0

g=32,1\frac{ft}{s^{2} }

t= 9,5s

h=0*9.5+\frac{1}{2} *32.1*9.5^{2}

h=1448.5 ft

Answer: The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 ft

How do odd-shaped ceilings, decorative panels, draperies, and glass windows affect echo and noise?
vesna_86 [32]
I think they decrease echo and reduce noise, they do this by either absorbing vibrations or by scattering the sound so that echoes arrive at different times rather than reverberating as a standing wave. An echo is a reflection of a sound that arrives at the listener with a delay after the direct sound. The delay is usually proportional to the distance of the reflecting surface from the source and the listener.
