When they are dropped at the same height, taking their mass into account, the feather will touch the ground last.

The feather will touch the ground last, because it has a lighter mass. Hope it helps!

a flag of mass 2.5 kg is supported by a single rope. A strong horizontal wind exerts a force of 12 N on the flag. Calculate the

tatuchka [14]

The free-body diagram of the forces acting on the flag is in the picture in attachment.

We have: the weight, downward, with magnitude
$W=mg = (2.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=24.5 N$
the force of the wind F, acting horizontally, with intensity
$F=12 N$
and the tension T of the rope. To write the conditions of equilibrium, we must decompose T on both x- and y-axis (x-axis is taken horizontally whil y-axis is taken vertically):
$T \cos \alpha -F=0$
$T \sin \alpha -W=$
By dividing the second equation by the first one, we get
$\tan \alpha = \frac{W}{F}= \frac{24.5 N}{12 N}=2.04$
From which we find
$\alpha = 63.8 ^{\circ}$
which is the angle of the rope with respect to the horizontal.

By replacing this value into the first equation, we can also find the tension of the rope:
$T= \frac{F}{\cos \alpha}= \frac{12 N}{\cos 63.8^{\circ}}=27.2 N$

Detailed Explanation:

1) Rusting of Iron

4Fe + 3O2 + 2H2O -> 2Fe2O32H2O

Reactants :-
Fe = 4
O = 3 * 2 + 2 = 8
H = 2 * 2 = 4

Products :-
Fe = 2 * 2 = 4
O = 2 * 3 + 2 = 8
H = 2 * 2 = 4

2) Fermentation of sucrose…

C12H22O11 + H2O -> 4C2H5OH + 4CO2

Reactants :-
C = 12
H = 22 + 2 = 24
O = 11 + 1 = 12

Products :-
C = 4 * 2 + 4 = 12
H = 4 * 5 + 4 = 24
O = 4 * 2 + 4 = 12

Looking closely at the way I have taken the total number of elements on the reactants and products side, you can solve the rest.

All the Best!

the maximum intensity levels of a trumpet, trombone, and a bass drum, each at a distance of 3m are 94 dB, 107dB, and 113dB respe

Gwar [14]

Answer:

β = 114 db

Explanation:

The intensity of sound in decibles is

β = 10 log $\frac{I}{I_{o}}$

in most cases Io is the hearing threshold 1 10-12 W / cm²

let's calculate the intensity of each instrument

I / I₀ = 10 (β / 10)

I = I₀ 10 (β / 10)

trumpet

I1 = 1 10⁻¹² 10 (94/10)

I1 = 2.51 10⁻³ / cm²

Thrombus

I2 = 1 10⁻¹² 10 (107/10)

I2 = 5.01 10-2 W / cm²

low

I3 =1 1-12 (113/10) W/cm²

I3 = 1,995 10-1 W / cm²

when we place the three instruments together their sounds reinforce

I_total = I₁ + I₂ + I₃

I_ttoal = 2.51 10-3 + 5.01 10-2 + 1.995 10-1

I_total = 0.00251 + 0.0501 + 0.1995

I_total = 0.25211 W / cm²

let's bring this amount to the SI system

β = 10 log (0.25211 / 1 10⁻¹²)

β = 114 db
