A stone is dropped from rest from the top of a building. It takes Δt = 2.2 s for it to reach the ground.
NeTakaya

Answer:

Value of magnitude of acceleration will be 9.8m/sec^2

Explanation:

It is given that when a stone is dropped it takes 2.2 sec to reach the ground

(a) As the stone is dropped from the top of building

So its initial velocity u_i will be 0 m /sec

(b) As the stone is free falling and there is no external force applied on it so its acceleration will be equal to acceleration due to gravity

So value of magnitude of acceleration will be equal to 9.8m/sec^2

If the cost estimate for a project is a basis for contract awards and performance reporting, it should be a(n) _____ estimate an
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Definitive

Explanation:

Definitive estimate should be done very early in a project or even before a project is officially started and is used for making many purchasing decisions for which accurate estimates are required and for estimating final project costs. Therefore, if the cost estimate for a project is a basis for contract awards and performance reporting, it should be definitive estimate and as accurate as possible.

A plastic rod that has been charged to -21 nc touches a metal sphere. afterward, the rod's charge is -8 nc. (a) what kind of cha
otez555 [7]
The rod transferred negatively charged particle to the metal sphere. The rod becomes less negatively charged than it was originally (originally it was charged to -21 nc, now it has -8, and -8>-21), so it must have moved 13 nc of negative charge to the sphere.

. Two astronauts are 1.90 m apart in their spaceship. One speaks to the other. The conversation is transmitted to earth via elec
melomori [17]

Answer:

d= 1650 km.

Explanation:

  • Assuming that sound waves travel along a straight line at a constant speed of 346 m/s, we can find the time needed for the sound to travel the distance of 1.9 m between the astronauts, just applying the definition of average velocity, as follows:

       t = \frac{\Delta x}{v} =\frac{1.9m}{346m/s} = 5.5 msec  (1)

  • The electromagnetic waves travel in free space at the same speed of light in vacuum ( since light is a electromagnetic wave indeed), i.e., 3*10⁸ m/s.
  • Applying the same formula than in (1) we can solve for the distance d, as follows:

       d = v*t = 3e8 m/s*5.5e-3s = 1650 km (2)

What would happen if the amount of light reaching the Earth from the sun were cut in half? Predict what the climate and life wou
kicyunya [14]
A lot would happen depends on which perspective you look at it from. Less incoming solar radiation means that there is a greater possibility of the surface temperature of earth reducing. there would be a cooling effect. And it could be major cooling in certain part of the world depending on milankovitch cycles. We know that the amount of light or solar radiation that reaches the earth is unequal in different parts of the world because of the obliquity, eccentricity, and precession of the earth. But, in general you would most likely see a cooling trend around the world and in some parts it would be extreme. In Canada or in the North is general, winters would become even more cooler or colder... winters would become longer perhaps, And summers would 've cooler. on the contrary to what most believe, you would most likely see a decline in precipitation such as snow or rain because this is mostly caused or intensified by warming temperatures. Life would be probably very similar to that of the Pleistocene epoch. how would humans respond to this change... Well most likely they would try to use their tech to control weather because they already do to a smaller proportion.

hope that helps a bit! :)
