1 answer:

7 0

Answer: The penetrating power of alpha rays, beta rays, and gamma rays varies greatly. Alpha particles can be blocked by a few pieces of paper. Beta particles pass through paper and Gamma rays are the most difficult to stop and require concrete, lead, or other heavy shielding to block them.

What is the acceleration of a 7 kg mass if the force of 70 N is used to move it toward the Earth?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

m is the mass

f is the force

From the question we have

$a = \frac{70}{7} = 10 \\$

We have the final answer as

I drop an egg from a certain distance and it takes the egg 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. How high up was the egg?

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall Motion </u>

When a body is left to move in the air with no friction, the motion is ruled only by the force of gravity. The vertical distance a body travels in the air after a time t is .

$\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}$

We know the egg takes 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. The height it was launched from is

$\displaystyle y=\frac{(9.8)(3.474)^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle y=68.54\ m$

The closest correct option is

B. 68.6m

2. Determine the current in a 120-watt bulb plugged into a 120-volt outlet.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

1 ampere

Explanation:

Power = VI

V = voltage

I = current

Given

Power = 120 watts

V = 120 volts

Therefore

120 = 120 x I

Divide both sides by 120

120/120 = 120/120 x I

1 = I

I = 1 ampere
