Answer: (D) 33 feet

First consider that the height is 12 feet and the ball is dropped from that height and the ball bounces back up to half the height that is 6 feet, then second time when the ball is dropped, according to the given question, the height becomes 6 feet and when the ball returns back then it returns back to half of the height that is 3 feet, following the similar path, we can write bounces one at a time:

1.  Ball is dropped from 12 feet and bounces back to 6 feet.

2. Ball is dropped from 6 feet and bounces back to 3 feet.

3. Ball is dropped from 3 feet and bounces back to 1.5 feet.

4. Ball is dropped from 1.5 feet and reaches the ground.

Adding the total distance traveled,we get

12+6+6+3+3+1.5+1.5=33 feet.

The best thing to do in order to calculate the distance of the ball taht would have traveled when it hits the ground for the fourth time is to list the height everytime it bounces. We calculate as follows:

<span>12+6+6+3+3+1.5+1.5 = 33 feet</span>

A wheel rotates clockwise 10 times per second. what is its angular speed answer
bogdanovich [222]
The frequency of the wheel is the number of revolutions per second:
f= \frac{N_{rev}}{t}= \frac{10}{1 s}=10 Hz
And now we can calculate the angular speed, which is given by:
\omega = 2 \pi f=2 \pi (10 Hz)=62.8 rad/s in the clockwise direction.

If a ball with an original velocity of 0 is dropped from a tall structure and takes 7 Seconds to hit the ground what velocity do
MrMuchimi

Gravity adds 9.8 m/s to the downward speed of a falling object every second. (On Earth.)

In 7 seconds, gravity adds (7 x 9.8 m/s) = <em>68.6 m/s</em> to the downward speed of a falling object.

(IF air resistance has no effect on the object.)

An electric current of 0.520A flows for 411 milliseconds. Calculate the amount of electric charge transported. Be sure your answ
Reptile [31]

The electric current intensity (I) is the amount of electricity or electric charge (Q) that circulates through a circuit in the unit of time (t). Mathematically it can be described as

I = \frac{Q}{t} \rightarrow Q= It

Our values are,

I = 0.520A

t = 411ms = 411*10^{-3}s

Replacing we have that the charge is

Q = (0.520A)( 411*10^{-3}s )

Q = 0.21372C

Therefore the amount of electric charge transported is 0.2137 Coulombs
