Answer:

Maximum height of rocket  = 2538.74 m

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

For first 5 seconds

          s = 0 x 5 + 0.5 x 40 x 5² = 500 m

Now let us find out time after 5 seconds rocket move upward.

We have the equation of motion v = u + at

After 5 seconds velocity of rocket

         v = 0 + 40 x 5 = 200 m/s

After 5 seconds the velocity reduces 9.8m/s per second due to gravity.

Time of flying after 5 seconds

          t=\frac{200}{9.81}=20.38s

Distance traveled in this 20.38 s

          s = 200 x 20.38 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 20.38² = 2038.74 m

Maximum height of rocket = 500 +2038.74 = 2538.74 m

Mirrors produce images by doing which of the following to light?
Gemiola [76]

Answer: C

Reflection

Explanation: Light travels in a straight line. Reflection is one of the properties of light. And this is the property in which mirror make use of. The ability of light to bounce back. It's this bouncing back characteristics of light ray that eventually produce the image of an object by the mirror.

If the light ray is absorbed, no image will be produced.

Which of these surface features are formed because of the heating of groundwater?
Tju [1.3M]
The correct option is C.
Hot springs and geysers are formed as a result of been heated up by heat from the interior of the earth. This type of heat is called geothermal heat. A hot spring refers to a spring that is produced as a result of geothermally heated water. Hot springs usually have very high temperature. Geysers is a form of hot spring and it refers to a pool of water that has seeped through a opening in the earth surface.

g If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance, what should that resi
Anettt [7]
<h2>Question:</h2>

In this circuit the resistance R1 is 3Ω, R2 is 7Ω, and R3 is 7Ω. If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance, what should that resistance be?

Answer:

9.1Ω

Explanation:

The circuit diagram has been attached to this response.

(i) From the diagram, resistors R1 and R2 are connected in parallel to each other. The reciprocal of their equivalent resistance, say Rₓ, is the sum of the reciprocals of the resistances of each of them. i.e

\frac{1}{R_X} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2}

=> R_{X} = \frac{R_1 * R_2}{R_1 + R_2}             ------------(i)

From the question;

R1 = 3Ω,

R2 = 7Ω

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

R_{X} = \frac{3 * 7}{3 + 7}

R_{X} = \frac{21}{10}

R_{X} = 2.1Ω

(ii) Now, since we have found the equivalent resistance (Rₓ) of R1 and R2, this resistance (Rₓ) is in series with the third resistor. i.e Rₓ and R3 are connected in series. This is shown in the second image attached to this response.

Because these resistors are connected in series, they can be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance R. Where R is the sum of the resistances of the two resistors: Rₓ and R3. i.e

R = Rₓ + R3

Rₓ = 2.1Ω

R3 = 7Ω

=> R = 2.1Ω + 7Ω = 9.1Ω

Therefore, the combination of the resistors R1, R2 and R3 can be replaced with a single resistor with an equivalent resistance of 9.1Ω
