Answer:
18.4 m
Explanation:
(a)
The known variables in this problem are:
u = 1.40 m/s is the initial vertical velocity (we take downward direction as positive direction)
t = 1.8 s is the duration of the fall
a = g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity
(b)
The vertical distance covered by the life preserver is given by
If we substitute all the values listed in part (a), we find
The frequency of a wave is the reciprocal of its period.
A period of 0.008 sec means a frequency of
1 / 0.008 sec = 125 per sec . (125 Hz)
Efficiency is calculated through dividing the actual mechanical advantage by the hypothetical mechanical advantage:
- the actual mechanical advantage is 9J because that's how much work the light bulb doing
- the hypo. mechanical advantage is 100J. Ideally, in a perfect world, the light bulb can convert 100J input into 100J output, but do to resistance and other factors it is not possible.
change the decimal to a percentage:
the light bulb had 9% efficiency
Answer:
Change in velocity, change in direction, change in both velocity and direction
Explanation:
Answer: Because new theories can come out that better explain observations and experimental results can replace old theories.
Explanation: Theories more than ten years old are usually out of date. Scientists want to prove that the work of other scientists is wrong. New evidence that supports a change prompts scientists to modify earlier theories.
