1 answer:
disa [49]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

Cubit is a unit of length based on the length of the forearm from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger and usually equal to about 18 inches (46 centimeters).

It is an ancient unit of length used in ancient Egypt and is also known as "ancient Egyptian royal cubit."

Water drips from the nozzle of a shower onto the floor 190 cm below. The drops fall at regular (equal) intervals of time, the fi
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Second drop: 1.04 m

First drop: 1.66 m

Explanation:

Assuming the droplets are not affected by aerodynamic drag.

They are in free fall, affected only by gravity.

I set a frame of reference with the origin at the nozzle and the positive X axis pointing down.

We can use the equation for position under constant acceleration.

X(t) = x0 + v0 * t + 1/2 * a *t^2

x0 = 0

a = 9.81 m/s^2

v0 = 0

Then:

X(t) = 4.9 * t^2

The drop will hit the floor when X(t) = 1.9

1.9 = 4.9 * t^2

t^2 = 1.9 / 4.9

t = \sqrt{0.388} = 0.62 s

That is the moment when the 4th drop begins falling.

Assuming they fall at constant interval,

Δt = 0.62 / 3 = 0.2 s (approximately)

The second drop will be at:

X2(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 1*0.2)^2 = 0.86 m

And the third at:

X3(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 2*0.2)^2 = 0.24 m

The positions are:

1.9 - 0.86 = 1.04 m

1.9 - 0.24 = 1.66 m

above the floor

Compare the current in the 8-ohm resistors to the current in the 4-ohm resistors.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

a)   i₈ = 0.5 i₄,  b)   i₁₀ = 0.3 i₃,    i₁₀ = 0.8 i₈

Explanation:

For this exercise we use ohm's law

       V = i R

        i = V / R

we assume that the applied voltage is the same in all cases

let's find the current for each resistance

         

R = 4 Ω

         i₄ = V / 4

R = 8 Ω

         i₈ = V / 8

we look for the relationship between these two currents

         i₈ /i₄ = 4/8 = ½

         i₈ = 0.5 i₄

R = 3 Ω

        i₃ = V3

R = 10 Ω

         

        i₁₀ = V / 10

   

we look for relationships

       i₁₀ / 1₃ = 3/10

       i₁₀ = 0.3 i₃

       i₁₀ / 1₈ = 8/10

       i₁₀ = 0.8 i₈

What is the electric force acting between two charges of -0.0045 C and -0.0025 C that are 0.0060 m apart? Use Fe=kq1q2/r^2 and k
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

D. 2.8 × 10⁹ N

Explanation:

The force between two charges is directly proportional to the amount of charges at the two points and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the two points.

Fe= k Q₁Q₂/r²

Q₁= -0.0045 C

Q₂= -0.0025 C

r= 0.0060 m

k= 9.00 × 10 ⁹ Nm²/C²

Fe= (9.00 × 10 ⁹ Nm²/C²×-0.0045 C×-0.0025 C)/0.0060²

=2.8 × 10⁹ N
