An experiment is carried out to measure the extension of a rubber band for different loads.
The results are shown in the image attached.
What figure is missing from the table?
Answer:
17.3 cm
Explanation:
The image attached showed values for load, extension and initial length.
Now, the first length there is 15.2 cm and as such it's corresponding extension is 0 because it has no preceding measured length.
The second measured length is 16.2 cm. Since it's initial measured length is 15.2 cm, then the extension has a formula; final length - initial length.
This gives: 16.2 - 15.2 = 1 cm
This corresponds to what is given in the table.
For the next measured length, it is blank but we are given the extension to be 2.1 cm. Now, since the initial measured length is 15.2 cm.
Thus;
2.1 cm = Final length - 15.2 cm
Final length = 15.2 + 2.1
Final length = 17.3 cm
Answer:
A. True
Explanation:
When a stone is thrown straight-up, it has an initial velocity which decreases gradually as the stone move to maximum height due to constant acceleration due to gravity acting downward on the stone, at the maximum height the final velocity of the stone is zero. As the stone descends the velocity starts to increase and becomes maximum before it hits the ground.
Height of the motion is given by;
g is acceleration due to gravity which is constant
H is height traveled
u is the speed of throw, which determines the value of height traveled.
Therefore, when the stone is caught at the same height from which it was thrown in the absence of air resistance, the speed of the stone when thrown will be equal to the speed when caught.
