Sample Response: There is a common ratio of 2/3 between the height of the ball at each bounce. So, the bounce heights form a geometric sequence: 27, 18, 12. Two-thirds of 12 is 8, so on the fourth bounce, the ball will reach a height of 8 feet.

If x is the peak of the ball and y is the peak of the previous bounce, the formula can be used below to describe the sequence:

y * (2/3) = x
12 * (2/3) = x
8 = x

The ball reaches 8 ft on its fourth bounce.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

1.77V

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The electromotive force voltage (E) in a cell, is related to the lost voltage (V_{L}) and the terminal voltage (V_{T}) as follows;

E = V_{T} - V_{L}

Where;

The lost voltage (V_{L}) is the product of the internal resistance (r) of the cell and current (I) in the cell. i.e

V_{L} =  I x r

<em>Substitute </em>V_{L}<em> =  I x r into equation (i) as follows;</em>

E = V_{T} - (I x r)           ----------------------(ii)

<em>According to the question;</em>

E = 1.54V

I = 2.15A

r = 0.105Ω

<em>Substitute these values into equation(ii) as follows;</em>

1.54 = V_{T} - (2.15 x 0.105)

1.54 = V_{T} - (0.22575)

1.54 = V_{T} - 0.22575

<em>Solve for </em>V_{T}<em>;</em>

V_{T} = 1.54 + 0.22575

V_{T} = 1.54 + 0.22575

V_{T} = 1.77V

Therefore, the terminal voltage of the cell is 1.77V

A chair of weight 125 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F = 3
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

N = 148.10N

Explanation:

GIVEN

Weight =125 N

force = 35

angle =42°

since there is no vertical acceleration a_{y} = 0 from

free body diagram

\Sigma fa_{y} = ma_{y} = 0

N-W-Fsin42\degree = 0\\\\N= W+Fsin42\\N = 125+35\times 0.66\\N = 148.10 N
