Answer:

The time after which the two stones meet is tₓ = 4 s

Explanation:

Given data,

The height of the building, h = 200 m

The velocity of the stone thrown from foot of the building, U = 50 m/s

Using the II equation of motion

                             S = ut + ½ gt²

Let tₓ be the time where the two stones  meet and x be the distance covered from the top of the building

The equation for the stone dropped from top of the building becomes

                            x = 0 + ½ gtₓ²

The equation for the stone thrown from the base becomes

                S - x = U tₓ - ½ gtₓ²  (∵ the motion of the stone is in opposite direction)

Adding these two equations,

                      x + (S - x) = U tₓ

                               S = U tₓ

                               200 = 50 tₓ

∴                                  tₓ = 4 s

Hence, the time after which the two stones meet is tₓ = 4 s

Which type of device enables its users to see around corners?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

We can use optical fibers.

Explanation:

The optical fibers are the optical devices which is based on the total internal reflection.

The optical fiber has two layers, one is called core and the other is called cladding.

The refractive index of core is more than the cladding.

As a ray of light falls on the core at more than the critical angle for that pair of media(core and cladding), it suffers the total internal reflection at the interface.

A man is using a fishing rod to catch fish in figure 1.
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

In general, these 3rd class levers are very inefficient. Because the force distance is smaller than the load distance, you need to pull upward with more force that the weight of the load. So whatever the load is, the force is going to be much greater.

The distances are always measured to the pivot unless you are asked something specific otherwise.

Givens

F = ?

weight = 6N

Force Distance = F*d = 0.5 m

Weight Distance =W*d1 = 2 m

Formula

F*Fd = W*Wd

Solution

F*0.5 = 6 * 2            Divide by 0.5

F = 12/0.5

F = 24 N upwards

A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly for a five seconds along a straight road. If speed obtained by the car is 72 km
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

50 meters

Explanation:

Let's start by converting to m/s. There are 3600 seconds in an hour and 1000 meters in a kilometer, meaning that 72km/h is 20m/s.

v_f=v_o+at

Since the car starts at rest, you can write the following equation:

20=0+a(5) \\\\a=20\div 5=4 m/s^2

Now that you have the acceleration, you can do this:

d=v_o+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Once again, there is no initial velocity:

d=\dfrac{1}{2}(4)(5)^2=2 \cdot 25=50m

Hope this helps!

Why are temperatures higher in the summer
pochemuha

Answer:Why are temperatures higher in summer than in winter?

During the summer, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a steep angle. ... Also, the long daylight hours allow the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures. During the winter, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a shallow angle. These rays are more spread out, which minimizes the amount of energy that hits any given spot.
