Answer:

Distance covered by B is 4 times distance covered by A

Explanation:

For an object in free fall starting from rest, the distance covered by the object in a time t is

s=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the distance covered

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time elapsed

In this problem:

- Object A falls through a distance s_A during a time t, so the distance covered by object A is

s_A=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

- Object B falls through a distance s_B during a time 2t, so the distance covered by object B is

s_B=\frac{1}{2}g(2t)^2 = 4(\frac{1}{2}gt^2)=4s_A

So, the distance covered by object B is 4 times the distance covered by object A.

Does someone know how to do math with that equation
mestny [16]

Answer:

f = 5 cm

Explanation:

using the thin lens equation, given as follows:

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_{o}}+\frac{1}{d_{i}}\\

where,

f = focal length = ?

do = the distance of object from lens = 20 cm

di = the distance of image from lens = 6.6667 cm

Therefore,

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{20\ cm}+\frac{1}{6.6667\ cm}\\\\\frac{1}{f} =  0.199999\ cm^{-1}\\\\f = \frac{1}{0.199999\ cm^{-1}}\\\\

<u>f = 5 cm</u>

Why is it important to consider the experimental error in all the empirical results presented?
irinina [24]

Answer:

It is very important because scientists, especially the ones with empirical experiments and results, are prone to error and the empirical data is in need to be under strict observation done not only by many scientists but also by expermiented ones. This guards everybody to change the parameters suddenly which can affect the real results of an experiment

What do astronomers mean by light pollution?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

a. Light pollution refers to light used for human activities that brightens the sky and hinders astronomical observations.

Explanation:

Light pollution is due to the excessive and misdirected use of artificial light. Light bulbs are often design in an incorrect way, since a great part of its light is not completely directed to the ground and an important percentage is emitted to the sky in where will be scattered and reflected back to ground by the particles in the atmosphere. That brings as an effect a sky glow, therefore the visibility of astronomical objects will be extremely reduce.  

Hence, professional astronomical research and amateur observations will be affected. Light pollution has a negative impact on bird migration at night and in the health of difference species, humans also.

A psychologist is interested in exploring the effect tutorial support on students academic performance and assign students in to
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The dependent variable is academic performance

The independent variable is the presence/absence of tutorial support

The control group are students who did not get the tutorial support.

The experimental group were students that got the tutorial support

Explanation:

In every experiment, there is a dependent and independent variable as well as an experimental and a control group.

The experimental group receive the treatment while the control group do not receive the treatment. The independent variable is manipulated and its impact on the dependent variable is evaluated.

The control group are students who did not receive the tutorial support while the experimental group are students that received the tutorial support.

The dependent variable in this case is academic performance. Its outcome depends on the presence or absence of tutorial support (independent variable).

A particle (charge = +0.8 mC) moving in a region where only electric forces act on it has a kinetic energy of 6.7 J at point A.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the particle as it moves through point B is 7.9 J.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the particle is:

\Delta K = \Delta E_{p} = q\Delta V

<u>Where</u>:

K: is the kinetic energy

E_{p}: is the potential energy

q: is the particle's charge = 0.8 mC

ΔV: is the electric potential = 1.5 kV                                    

\Delta K = q \Delta V= 0.8 \cdot 10^{-3} C*1.5 \cdot 10^{3} V = 1.2 J

Now, the kinetic energy of the particle as it moves through point B is:

\Delta K = K_{f} - K_{i}

K_{f} = \Delta K + K_{i} = 1.2 J + 6.7 J = 7.9 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the particle as it moves through point B is 7.9 J.

I hope it helps you!
