Answer:

0.938 seconds

Explanation:

For the ball thrown upwards, we use the formula below to solve it:

s = ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where s = distance moved

u = initial speed = 19.2 m/s

t = time taken

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2

Let x be the height at which both balls are level, this means that:

=> x = 19.2t - 4.9t^2________(1)

For the ball dropped downwards, we use the formula below:

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

u = 0 m/s

At the point where both balls are level:

s = 18 - x

=> 18 - x = 0 + 4.9t^2

=> x = 18 - 4.9t^2__________(2)

Equating both (1) and (2):

19.2t - 4.9t^2 = 18 - 4.9t^2\\\\=> 19.2t = 18\\\\t = 18/19.2 = 0.938 secs

They will be level after 0.938 seconds

Calculate the magnitude of the total impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Total impulse = mv = Initial momentum of the car

Explanation:

Let the mass of the car be 'm' kg moving with a velocity 'v' m/s.

The final velocity of the car is 0 m/s as it is brought to rest.

Impulse is equal to the product of constant force applied to an object for a very small interval. Impulse is also calculated as the total change in the linear momentum of an object during the given time interval.

The magnitude of impulse is the absolute value of the change in momentum.

|J|=|p_f-p_i|

Momentum of an object is equal to the product of its mass and velocity.

So, the initial momentum of the car is given as:

p_i=mv

The final momentum of the car is given as:

p_f=m(0)=0

Therefore, the impulse is given as:

|J|=|p_f-p_i|=|0-mv|=|-mv|=mv

Hence, the magnitude of the impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest is equal to the initial momentum of the car.

Magnesium (Mg) has 12 protons and an atomic mass of 24. How many neutrons does magnesium have?
JulijaS [17]
An atom is made up of three different particles, which are proton, neutron and electron. The proton and the neutron are located in the nucleus of the atom and they make up mass of the atom. The electron orbit around the nucleus. The proton is positively charged while the electron is negatively charged, thus, for the atom to remain neutral, the number of proton and electron in an atom must be equal. The neutron has no charge.
The atomic mass of an element = number of proton + number of neutron
Atomic mass of magnesium= 24 
Number of proton = 12
Therefore, number of neutron = 24 - 12 = 12.
Thus, the number of neutron = 12.

The spectrum produced by a prism or a raindrop is evidence that the average speed of light in the material depends on the light'
Alja [10]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "B. color." The spectrum produced by a prism or a raindrop is evidence that the average speed of light in the material depends on the light's color. White light is being refracted into different colors.

What is the square root of 25x10^12
kirill115 [55]

\sqrt{25 \times 10^{12} }

In order to find it's square root, we could make it into two square roots.

\sqrt{25 \times 10^{12} } = \sqrt{25} \times \sqrt{10^{12}}

Let us find the square roots of both radicals seprately.

\sqrt{25} =\sqrt{5*5}=5

Each  pair  of a number inside square root gives a number out .

\sqrt{10^{12}} = \sqrt{10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10}   \ \ ( \ makes \ 6 \ pairs \ of \ 10 )

\sqrt{10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10} = 10*10*10*10*10*10

= 10^6.

Therefore,

\sqrt{25 \times 10^{12} }=\sqrt{25} \times \sqrt{10^{12}}={5 \times 10^6}

\sqrt{25 \times 10^{12} } = {5 \times 10^6}
