Answer:

90.6m

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial speed = 8m/s

Time = 4.3 s

In studying the motion of an object, we often make use of kinematic equation

s = ut + 1/2at^2

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

a = (v - u) / t

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

s = distance or height

t = time

a = acceleration due to gravity

Given time to hit the ground as 4.3s, we calculate the height by using

s = ut + 1/2at^2

Since the stone is moving against gravity, a is negative

u = 0

s = 0(4.3) +1/2(-9.8)(4.3)^2

s = -90.6m

The height of the cliff is 90.6m

Cora has some ice cream that she is serving for her friend , if Cora gives1/6 of a quart of ice cream to earth of her 8 friends,
zalisa [80]

Answer:

\frac{4}{3} quarts of ice cream

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of friends = 8

Size of ice cream = 1/6 quarts

Required

Total ice cream served

Let n represent the number of friends, s represent the size of ice cream and t represents total ice cream served;

t is calculated as thus;

t = n * s

t = 8 * \frac{1}{6} quarts

t = \frac{8}{6} quarts

Divide numerator and denominator by 2

t = \frac{4}{3} quarts

Hence, she serves \frac{4}{3} quarts in total

Consider a nuclear power plant that produces 1200 MW of power and has a conversion efficiency of 34 percent (that is, for each u
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The amount of nuclear fuel required is 1.24 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the principle of mass energy equivalence we know that energy generated by mass 'm' in an nuclear plant is

E=m\cdot c^2

where

'c' is the speed of light in free space

Since the power plant operates at 1200 MW thus the total energy produced in 1 year equals

E=1200\times 10^6\times 3600\times 24\times 365=3.8\times 10^{16}Joules

Thus using the energy produced in the energy equivalence we get

3.8\times 10^{16}=mass\times (3\times 10^{8})^2\\\\\therefore mass=\frac{3.8\times 10^{16}}{9\times 10^{16}}=0.422kg

Now since the efficiency of conversion is 34% thus the fuel required equals

mass_{required}=\frac{0.422}{0.34}=1.24kg
