A piece of aluminium foil is held between a bar magnet and a paperclip. What will happen to the paper clip?

If a rock is dropped from the top of a tower at the front of it and takes 3.6 seconds to hit the ground. Calculate the final vel

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

35.28m/s; 63.50m

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Time, t = 3.6 secs

Since it's a free fall, acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Initial velocity, u = 0

To find the final velocity, we would use the first equation of motion;

$V = u + at$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$V = 0 + 9.8 * 3.6$

V = 35.28m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the penny is 35.28m/s.

To find the height, we would use the second equation of motion;

$S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}$

Substituting the values into the equation;

$S = 0(3.6) + \frac {1}{2}*9.8*(3.6)^{2}$

$S = 0 + 4.9*12.86$

$S = 0.5 *36$

S = 63.50m

Therefore, the height of the tower is 63.50m.

a flag of mass 2.5 kg is supported by a single rope. A strong horizontal wind exerts a force of 12 N on the flag. Calculate the

tatuchka [14]

The free-body diagram of the forces acting on the flag is in the picture in attachment.

We have: the weight, downward, with magnitude
$W=mg = (2.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=24.5 N$
the force of the wind F, acting horizontally, with intensity
$F=12 N$
and the tension T of the rope. To write the conditions of equilibrium, we must decompose T on both x- and y-axis (x-axis is taken horizontally whil y-axis is taken vertically):
$T \cos \alpha -F=0$
$T \sin \alpha -W=$
By dividing the second equation by the first one, we get
$\tan \alpha = \frac{W}{F}= \frac{24.5 N}{12 N}=2.04$
From which we find
$\alpha = 63.8 ^{\circ}$
which is the angle of the rope with respect to the horizontal.

By replacing this value into the first equation, we can also find the tension of the rope:
$T= \frac{F}{\cos \alpha}= \frac{12 N}{\cos 63.8^{\circ}}=27.2 N$

A theory is a framework of ideas and assumptions used to explain some set of observations and to make predictions about the real

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

All the predictions in the impact theory are true.

Explanation:

That’s because of their predictions. Modern computer simulations predict that there happened a collision between Earth and a planet named as Theia. The chunks of both planets conformed into a stable orbit and form the satellite that we know today as our Moon. Similarly, both moon and Earth share similar mantle compositions but cores are dissimilar in terms of their size and composition.

A block slides down a frictionless inclined ramp. If the ramp angle is 17.0° and its length is find the speed of the block as it

SashulF [63]

Answer:

$2.4\sqrt{L}$ where L is the length of the ramp

Explanation:

Let L (m) be the length of the ramp, and g = 9.81 m/s2 be the gravitational acceleration acting downward. This g vector can be split into 2 components: parallel and perpendicular to the ramp.

The parallel component would have a magnitude of

$gsin\theta = 9.81 sin17^o = 2.87 m/s^2$

We can use the following equation of motion to find out the final velocity of the book after sliding L m:

$v^2 - v_0^2 = 2a\Delta s$

where v m/s is the final velocity, $v_0$ = 0m/s is the initial velocity when it starts from rest, a = 2.87 m/s2 is the acceleration, and $\Delta s = L$ is the distance traveled:

$v^2 - 0 = 2*2.87*L$

$v = \sqrt{5.74L} = 2.4\sqrt{L}$

In your own words differentiate Comets Asteroids Meteors Meteoroids and Meteorites

Eddi Din [679]

Thanks for the question,

Asteroids: These are rocky and airless plates from the formation of planets in our solar system. It basically revolves around our sun in the space barrier between Mars and Jupiter and moves in the size of cars to smaller planets.

Comets: comets are the most polluted glaciers of ice and dust created at the time of the birth of the solar system 4.6 billion years ago. Many comets have a fixed orbit around the outer surface of the solar system beyond the planet Neptune.

Meteoroids, Meteorites, Meteorites: Meteoroids are small asteroids or broken comet fragments and sometimes planets. They vary in size from sand dune to three large stones in diameter. When meteoroids collide with the earth's atmosphere, they form meteors. When those meteors survive space and reach the surface of the planet, their remains are called meteorites.
