A dripping water faucet steadily releases drops 1.0 s apart. As these drops fall, does the distance between them increase, decre
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Distance between them increase

Explanation:

The position S of the water droplet can be determined  using equation of motion

S=ut+\frac{1}{2}  at^2

where u is the initial velocity which is zero here

t is time taken, a is acceleration due to gravity

the position of  first drop after time t is given by

S_{1}  =0 \times t+ \frac{1}{2} at^2=\frac{1}{2} at^2............(1)

the position of  next drop at same time is

S_{2}  =\frac{1}{2} a(t-1)^2 = \frac{1}{2} a(t^2+1-2t)............(2)

distance between them is S_{1} -S_{2}  is a(t-1)

from the above the difference will increase with the time

A truck traveling with an initial velocity of 22m/s comes to a stop in 17.32 secs. What is the acceleration of the truck?
Tomtit [17]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 22 m/s

v = 0 m/s

t = 17.32 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

(0 m/s) = a (17.32 s) + (22 m/s)

a = -1.270 m/s²

Round as needed.

During a particular thunderstorm, the electric potential difference between a cloud and the ground is vcloud - vground = 3.50 10
wariber [46]
<span>The change in the electron's potential energy is equal to the work done on the electron by the electric field. The electron's potential energy is the stored energy relative to the electron's position in the electric field. Vcloud - Vground represents the change in Voltage. This voltage quantity is given to be 3.50 x 10^8 V, with the electron at the lower potential. The formula for calculating the change in the electron's potential energy (EPE) is found by charge x (Vcloud - Vground) = (EPEcloud - EPE ground) where charge is constant = 1.6 x 10^-19. Filling in the known quantities results in the expression 1.6 x 10^-19 (3.50 x 10^8) = (EPEcloud - EPEground) = 5.6 x 10^-11. Therefore, the change in the electron's potential energy from cloud to ground is 5.6 x 10^-11 joules.</span>
