dimaraw [331]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

Using the principle of conservation of energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, assuming any losses.

Kinetic energy is given by ½mv²

Potential energy is given by mgh

Where m is the mass, v is the velocity, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

Equating kinetic energy to be equal to potential energy then

½mv²=mgh

V

Making v the subject of the formula

v=√(2gh)

Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g and 10 m for h then

v=√(2*9.81*10)=14.0071410359145 m/s

Rounding off, v is approximately 14 m/s

What object best represents a true scale model of the shape of earth?
BabaBlast [244]
Any object that is spherical in shape would best represent a true scale model of the shape of the Earth. Examples are ping pong balls, billiard balls, marble and other smooth spherical objects. The shape of the Earth is called the oblate spheroid. The "oblate" would refer to an oblong shape and "spheroid" would refer to an almost spherical shape. The earth has on almost spherical shape and has a slightly oblong appearance. The diameter from the South pole to the north pole was measured to have a value of 12714 km while the diameter of the equator is approximately 12756 km. As you can see, the values are not equal. This makes the earth not a perfect sphere.

- A capacitor's dielectric material is a vacuum. The capacitor's dielectric constant, or K, will be equal to
dlinn [17]

If  a capacitor's dielectric constant is vacuum its dielectric constant is k will be equal to 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Relative permittivity of  a dielectric substance is referred to as its dielectric constant. Relative permittivity/dielectric constant k is a dimensionless quantity that is the ratio of absolute permittivity and vacuum permittivity.

It is given by the expression

k=k=ε /ε0

where ε denotes absolute permittivity and  ε0 denotes permittivity of vacuuum.

Absolute permittivity  ε of vacuum= ε0

therefore k= ε0/ ε0=1

dielectric constant of vacuum is 1 .

taurus [48]

Answer:

I = 0.483 kgm^2

Explanation:

To know what is the moment of inertia I of the boxer's forearm you use the following formula:

\tau=I\alpha  (1)

τ: torque exerted by the forearm

I: moment of inertia

α: angular acceleration = 125 rad/s^2

You calculate the torque by using the information about the force (1.95*10^3 N) and the lever arm (3.1 cm = 0.031m)

\tau=Fr=(1.95*10^3N)(0.031m)=60.45J

Next, you replace this value of τ in the equation (1) and solve for I:

I=\frac{\tau}{\alpha}=\frac{60.45Kgm^2/s ^2}{125rad/s^2}=0.483 kgm^2

hence, the moment of inertia of the forearm is 0.483 kgm^2
