Answer:

1793.7m

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of energy; the kinetic energy substended by the object equals the potential energy sustain by the object when it gets to its maximum position.

Now the kinetic energy; is

K.E = 1/2 × m × v2

Where m is mass

v is velocity

Hence.

K.E = 1/2 × 2.25 × (187.5)^2

Now this should be same with the potential energy which is given as;

P.E = m× g× h

Where m is mass of object

g is acceleration of free fall due to gravity = 9.8m/S2

h is maximum height substain by the object.

Hence P.E = 2.25 × 9.8 × h

From the foregoing analysis of energy conversation it implies;

1/2 × 2.25 × (187.5)^2 =2.25 × 9.8 × h

=> 1/2 × (187.5)^2 = 9.8 × h

=>1/2 × (187.5)^2 / 9.8 = h

=> 1793.69m = h

h= 1793.69m

h =1793.7m to 1 decimal place

15. A locomotive moved 18.0 m [W] in a time of 6.00 s and stopped. After stopping, the

mariarad [96]

Answer:

Distance = 30m

Displacement = 6m W

Explanation:

Given the following:

Movement 1 = 18m W

Movement 2 = 12m E

Diatance is a scalar quantity with only magnitude and no direction. That is, in Calculating the distance moved by the locomotive, the direction of travel or movement of the object is not considered. It only measures the total amount of movement made during the Time of motion.

Therefore, total distance traveled equals :

Movement 1 + movement 2

18m + 12m = 30m

B) Displacement also measures the movement made by an object. However, Displacement is a vector quantity and therefore, considers both magnitude and direction of travel of the object. Therefore, it measures the overall change in position of the object from its starting position.

Therefore, Displacement of the locomotive equals:

18m W - 12m E = 6m E

Although these quantities vary from one type of cell to another, a cell can be 1.9 μm in diameter with a cell wall 60 nm thick.

DaniilM [7]

Answer: $2(10)^{-9} mg$

Explanation:

We know the total diameter of the cell (assumed spherical) is:

$d=1.9\mu m=1.9(10)^{-6} m$

Then its total radius $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1.9(10)^{-6} m}{2}=9.5(10)^{-7} m$

On the other hand, we know the thickness of the cell wall is $r_{t}=60 nm= 60(10)^{-9} m$ and its density is the same as water ( $\rho=997 kg/m^{3}$ ).

Since density is the relation between the mass $m$ and the volume $V$ :

$\rho=\frac{m}{V}$

The mass is: $m=\rho V$ (1)

Now if we are talking about this cell as a thin spherical shell, its volume will be:

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^{3}$ (2)

Where $R=r-r_{w}=9.5(10)^{-7} m - 60(10)^{-9} m$

Then:

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi (9.5(10)^{-7} m - 60(10)^{-9} m)^{3}$ (3)

$V=2.952(10)^{-18} m^{3}$ (4)

Substituting (4) in (1):

$m=(997 kg/m^{3})(2.952(10)^{-18} m^{3})$ (5)

$m=2.94(10)^{-15} kg$ (6)

Knowing $1 kg=1000 g$ and $1 mg=0.001 g$ :

$m=2.94(10)^{-15} kg=2(10)^{-9} mg$

How does Water Pollution effect the economy

Lelechka [254]

Water pollution can affect the economy because with no clean water, people will be forced to buy water bottles impacting their disposable income. In the search for clean water, potential future conflicts may occur because water is a fundamental need to human survival. :)
