Answer:

The acceleration of the snowball is 0.3125

Explanation:

The initial speed of the snowball up the hill, u = 0

The speed the snowball reaches, v = 5 m/s

The length of the hill, s = 40 m

The equation of motion of the snowball given the above parameters is therefore;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

Where;

a = The acceleration of the snowball

Plugging in the values, we have;

5² = 0² + 2 × a × 40

∴ 2 × 40 × a = 5² = 25

80 × a = 25

a = 25/80 = 5/16

a = The acceleration of the snowball = 5/16 m/s².

The acceleration of the snowball = 5/16 m/s² = 0.3125 m/s² .

The moon has a diameter of 3.48 x 106 m and is a distance of 3.85 x 108 m from the earth. The sun has a diameter of 1.39 x 109 m

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

0.00903 rad

0.00926 rad

6.268\times 10^{-6}

Explanation:

s = Diameter of the object

r = Distance between the Earth and the object

Angle subtended is given by

$\theta=\frac{s}{r}$

For the Moon

$\theta_m=\dfrac{3.48\times 10^6}{3.85\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow \theta_m=0.00903\ rad$

The angle subtended by the Moon is 0.00903 rad

For the Sun

$\theta_s=\dfrac{1.39\times 10^9}{1.5\times 10^{11}}\\\Rightarrow \theta_s=0.00926\ rad$

The angle subtended by the Sun is 0.00926 rad

Area ratio is given by

$\frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{\pi r_m^2}{\pi r_s^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{d_m^2}{d_s^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{(3.48\times 10^{6})^2}{(1.39\times 10^9)^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=6.268\times 10^{-6}$

The area ratio is $6.268\times 10^{-6}$

A water pump is a positive displacement-type pump true or false

Kay [80]

Answer: True

A water pump belong to a positive displacement pump that provides constant flow of water at fixed speed, regardless of changes in the counter pressure. The two main types of positive displacement pump are rotary pumps and reciprocating pumps.

Moreover, water pump is a reciprocating positive displacement pump that have an expanding cavity on the suction side and a decreasing cavity on the discharge side. In water pumps, the liquid flows into the pumps as the cavity on the suction side expands and then the liquid flows out of the discharge as the cavity collapses providing water in a pail.
