The ball is constantly being accelerated downward by gravity at a rate of 9.80665 m/ss

<span>The only acceleration acting on the ball once it leaves the thrower's hand is gravity. Therefore at the highest point where the ball is momentarily stopped the acceleration is still g.</span>

A juggler throws a bowling pin straight up with an initial speed of 8.20 m/s. How much time elapses until the bowling pin return
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

1.68 s

Explanation:

From newton's equation of motion,

a = (v-u)/t.................................. Equation 1

Making t the subject of the equation

t =(v-u)g............................. Equation 2

Where t = time taken for the bowling pin to reach the maximum height, v = final velocity bowling pin, u = initial velocity of the bowling pin, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Note: Taking upward to be negative and down ward to be positive,

Given: v = 0 m/s ( at the maximum height), u = 8.20 m/s, g = -9.8 m/s²

t = (0-8.20)/-9.8

t = -8.20/-9.8

t = 0.84 s.

But,

T = 2t

Where T = time taken for the bowling pin to return to the juggler's hand.

T = 2(0.84)

T = 1.68 s.

T = 1.68 s

How many electrons are depicted in the electron dot diagram of an electrically neutral nitrogen atom? A. two B. six C. eight D.
goldenfox [79]

Answer is D - five.


<em>Explanation;</em>


- Electron dot diagrams show the valence electrons around the element by using dots.


- Valence electrons are the electrons which are in outermost shell of the atom.


-The atomic number of the N atom is 7.

      Atomic number = number of protons = 7

  If the atom is neutral,

      number of protons = number of electrons.


  Hence, N atom has 7 electrons.


- The electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p³.


Hence, N atom has 2 + 3 = 5 valence electrons. So, five electrons are represented in electron dot diagram of N.

How do you work out the potential diffrance
timurjin [86]

Answer:

The potential difference is the drop in voltage that occurs across a resistor as current flows through it in a circuit, potential difference or voltage(V) = current (I) *resistance (R), or to abbrevate V = I*R. In this case, I = 5amps and R = 10 ohms, so V = 5 * 10 = 50volts
