Two identical stones are thrown from the top of a tall building. Stone 1 is thrown vertically downward with an initial speed v,

and stone 2 is thrown vertically upward with the same initial speed. Neglecting air resistance, how do their speeds compare on hitting the ground?

If the resistance of the Air is ignored, we can use the theory given by Galileo in which he warned that the thermal velocity of a body in free fall was given by

v= \frac{1}{2}gt

Where

g = Gravitational acceleration

t = time

As we can see the speed of objects in free fall is indifferent to the position that is launched (as long as the resistance of the air is ignored) or its mass.

Both bodies will end with the same thermal speed.

What is the device used to detect and measure current?
dybincka [34]
The Ammeter is used to detect and measure current or amperage. Also a more common tool now used is a multimeter that detects and measures voltage, current, and resistance.

Any questions please just ask. Thank you.

In a classroom demonstration, the pressure inside a soft drink can is suddenly reduced to essentially zero. Assuming the can to
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

3141N or 3.1 ×10³N to 2 significant figures. The can experiences this inward force on its outer surface.

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure acts on the outer surface of the can. In order to calculate this inward force we need to know the total surface area of the can available to the air outside the can. Since the can is a cylinder with a total surface area given by 2πrh + 2πr² =

A = 2πr(r + h)

Where h = height of the can = 12cm

r = radius of the can = 6.5cm/2 = 3.25cm

r = diameter /2

A = 2π×3.25 ×(3.25 + 12) = 311.4cm² = 311.4 ×10-⁴ = 0.031m²

Atmospheric pressure, P = 101325Pa = 101325 N/m²

F = P × A

F = 101325 ×0.031.

F = 3141N. Or 3.1 ×10³ N.

What is the diurnal motion of the stars
OlgaM077 [116]
The answer is shown below:

 "The diurnal motion" of the stars is defined as the apparent daily motion of stars around the Earth.  The cause for this "apparent motion of stars" was proposed by Heraclides (who was a Greek philosopher and astronomer). He afirmed that  this was created by the Earth's rotation on its axis, which is completed in 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.09 seconds.
