Semiconductors are crystalline solids that has the ability to conduct electrical currents but on certain conditions e.g heat. The conduction of semiconductors is less than that of conductors (metals) but more than insulators (nonmetals), hence, they are said to be intermediates of conductors and insulators in terms of electrical conductivity.

Examples of semiconductors are silicon, boron, carbon, germanium, arsenic etc.

A basketball is held over head at a height of 2.4 m. The ball is lobbed to a teammate at 8 m/s at an angle of 40'. If the ball i

cupoosta [38]

Explanation:

since both the teammates are of the same height, their height won't matter. Because now the basketball won't cover any vertical distance.

We have to calculate its range the horizontal distance covered by it when tossed from one teammate to the other.

range can be calculated by the formula :-

$\boxed{\mathfrak{range = \frac{ u {}^{2} \sin 2\theta }{g} }}$

u is the velocity during its take off and $\theta$ is the angle at which its thrown

Given that

u = 8m/ s
$\theta$ = 40°

calculating range using the above formula

$= \frac{ {8}^{2} \sin2(40) }{10}$

$= \frac{64 \times \sin(80) }{10}$

value of sin 80 = 0. 985

$= \frac{64 \times 0.985}{10}$

$= \frac{63.027}{10}$

$= 6.3027$

Hence,

$\mathfrak { \blue{the \: teammate \: is \: \red{\underline{6.3027 \: meters} }\: away } }$

What force is required to accelerate a 385 kg couch at 0.2 m/s^2 ?

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

It takes 77 N

Explanation:

Using Newton's second law of motion, F=ma (Force equals mass times acceleration. Since the mass of the couch is 385 kg and the target acceleration is 0.2 m/s, you simply multiply mass times acceleration (ma) to get the total force, or 77 N.
