Answer:

11.2 m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity = displacement / time

v = 100 m / 8.9 s

v = 11.2 m/s

How much energy is imparted to an electron as it flows through a 6 V battery from the positive to the negative terminal? Express
Hatshy [7]
The potential difference does work on the electron. The work is given by:
W = Vq
W = work, V = potential difference, q = electron charge

Given values:
V = 6V, q = 1.6x10^-19C

Plug in and solve for W:
W = 6(1.6x10^-19)
W = 0.96aJ

(a) Calculate the height of a cliff if it takes 2. 35 s for a rock to hit the ground when it is thrown straight up from the clif
Natali [406]

(a) The height of the cliff will be 8.26 meters.

(b) The time would it take to reach the ground will be 0.717 sec.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3><h3 />

The change of displacement with respect to time is defined as the velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity. it is a time-based component.

(a) The height of the cliff will be 8.26 meters.

According to Newton's second equation of motion

\rm H =ut-\frac{1}{2} gt^2 \\\\ \rm H =8\times 2.35-\frac{1}{2} 9.81 (2.35)^2\\\\\rm H =8.16 \; m

Hence The height of the cliff will be 8.26 meters.

(b)The time would it take to reach the ground will be 0.717 sec.

We must have the final velocity to find the time so;

\rm v^2=u^2+2gh\\\\ \rm v^2=8^2+2\times 9.81 \times 8.6 \\\\ \rm v= \sqrt{8^2+2\times 9.81 \times 8.6}\\\\\rm v=15.03 \;m/sec

According to Newton's third equation of motion ;

\rm v=u-gt \\\\ \rm t=\frac{v-u}{g} \\\\ \rm t=\frac{15.03-8}{9.81} \\\\ \rm t=0.717 sec.

Hence the time would it take to reach the ground will be 0.717 sec.

A building made with a steel structure is 565 m high on a winter day when the temperature is 0◦F. How much taller is the buildin
anyanavicka [17]

To solve this problem we apply the thermodynamic equations of linear expansion in bodies.

Mathematically the change in the length of a body is subject to the mathematical expression

\Delta L = L_0 \alpha \Delta T

Where,

L_0 = Initial Length

\alpha = Thermal expansion coefficient

\Delta T = Change in temperature

Since we have values in different units we proceed to transform the temperature to degrees Celsius so

0\°F \Rightarrow (0-32)*\frac{5}{9} = -17.77\°C

103\°F \Rightarrow (103-32)*(\frac{5}{9})= 39.44\°C

The coefficient of thermal expansion given is

\alpha = 1.1*10^{-5}/\°C

The initial length would be,

L_0 = 565m

Replacing we have to,

\Delta L = L_0 \alpha \Delta T

\Delta L = (565)(1.1*10^{-5})(39.44-(-17.77))

\Delta L = (565)(1.1*10^{-5})(39.44-(-17.77))

\Delta L = 0.355m

This means that the building will be 35.5cm taller

At exactly 3:14PM, the velocity of a dog running in a park points toward a group of flowers. Which of the following best describ
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Options A, B, and C are all possible.

Explanation:

We know that the instantaneous velocity of the dog at 3:14PM is possitive to toward the flowers. But what about the acceleration to toward the flowers?

If the dog is decreasing speed at 3:14PM, it means that acceleration is negative toward the flowers, hence (since F=ma) the net force points away from the flowers.

If the dog is increasing speed at 3:14PM, it means that acceleration is positive toward the flowers, hence (since F=ma) the net force points toward the flowers.

If the dog is not increasing nor decreasing speed at 3:14PM, it means that acceleration is 0, hence (since F=ma) the net force is null and it does not point neighter to toward the flowers  nor away from the flowers. This happens when the forces acting on the dog are equal to both sides.

A 2kg block has 70J of KE. It then travels 1.5 meters up a hill. As it travels up the hill friction does -12J of work on the blo
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

v = 5.34[m/s]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. This theorem tells us that the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work on or performed by a body must be equal to the mechanical energy in the final state.

Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of energies, kinetic, potential, and elastic.

E₁ = mechanical energy at initial state [J]

E_{1}=E_{pot}+E_{kin}+E_{elas}\\

In the initial state, we only have kinetic energy, potential energy is not had since the reference point is taken below 1.5[m], and the reference point is taken as potential energy equal to zero.

In the final state, you have kinetic energy and potential since the car has climbed 1.5[m] of the hill. Elastic energy is not available since there are no springs.

E₂ = mechanical energy at final state [J]

E_{2}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}

Now we can use the first statement to get the first equation:

E_{1}+W_{1-2}=E_{2}

where:

W₁₋₂ = work from the state 1 to 2.

E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

h = elevation = 1.5 [m]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

70 - 12 = \frac{1}{2}*2*v^{2}+2*9.81*1.5

58 = v^{2} +29.43\\v^{2} =28.57\\v=\sqrt{28.57}\\v=5.34[m/s]
