Answer:

h = 22.35 m

Explanation:

given,

initial speed of the rock,u = 0 m/s

length of the window,l = 2.7 m

time taken to cross the window,t = 0.129 s

Speed of the rock when it crosses the window

v = \dfrac{l}{t}

v = \dfrac{2.7}{0.129}

  v = 20.93 m/s

height of the building above the window

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 g h

20.93² = 0² + 2 x 9.8 x h

h = 22.35 m

Hence, the height of the building above the top of window is equal to h = 22.35 m

Select the choice that best completes the following sentence. When an axe is used to chop wood, A. the axe blade acts as a wedge
Firdavs [7]
Answer: C
<span>
An axe is a mechanical device with two inclined planes, thick at one end and tapers to a thin edge and when it is used to chop wood, the axe blade acts as a wedge and changes the direction of the input force. When the axe blade penetrates the wood, a portion of the downward force of the blade is changed to sideways forces, which are perpendicular to each external of the blade and the sideways forces cause the wood to split in contrasting directions.</span>

You dip a wire loop into soapy water (n = 1.33) and hold it up vertically to look at the soap film in white light. The soap film
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

the thickness of the soap film is 127.82 nm or 130 nm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

n = 1.33

λ_t = 680 nm = 680 × 10⁻⁹ m

m = 1 and β = 0

When we see the red fringe, its a point of maximum reflection

hence, for interference with a thin soap film, we say;

2 × n × d × cos( β ) = ( m - 0.5) × λ_t

so we substitute in our given values;

2 × 1.33 × d × cos( 0 ) = ( 1 - 0.5) × ( 680 × 10⁻⁹ )

2.66 × cos( 0 ) × d = 0.5 × ( 680 × 10⁻⁹ )

2.66 × 1 × d = 3.4 × 10⁻⁷

d = ( 3.4 × 10⁻⁷ ) / 2.66

d = 127.82 × 10⁻⁹ m

d = 127.82 nm ≈ 130 nm

Therefore, the thickness of the soap film is 127.82 nm or 130 nm

In a simulation on earth, an astronaut in his space suit climbs up a vertical ladder. On the moon, the same astronaut makes the
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Gravitational potential energy of the astronaut will change by a greater amount on the earth

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is expressed by the formula;

GPE = mgh

This means that the gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to the gravity(g)

Now, from constant values, gravity of moon is 1.62 m/s² while gravity of the earth is 9.81 m/s².

This means that if we plug in the values of g on the earth and g on the moon, the potential energy on the earth would be greater than that of the moon

Thus, gravitational potential energy of the astronaut will change by a greater amount on the earth
