Answer:

The speed of the block before it strikes the floor is 0.217 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the block, m = 1.5 kg

height above the ground through the block was released, h = 2.4 mm = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m

The speed of the block before it strikes the floor will be maximum.

Let the speed of the block before it strikes the floor = v

Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy to determine the speed of the block.

K.E = P.E

¹/₂mv² = mgh

¹/₂v² = gh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 2.4 x 10⁻³)

v = 0.217 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the block before it strikes the floor is 0.217 m/s.

How do you compare the energies of the different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum?
faltersainse [42]

The different types of radiation in electromagnetic spectrum are compared by the amount of energy found in the photons.

Radio waves have photons with low energies, microwave photons have a little more energy than radio-waves. Infrared photons still have more energy, then comes visible, ultraviolet, x-rays and the most energetic of all, gamma rays.

The energy associated with electromagnetic radiation is proportional to frequency and inversely proportional to wavelength. So, electromagnetic waves with shorter wavelengths have more energy.

On one end of the electromagnetic spectrum are radio waves, which have wavelengths billions of times longer than those of visible light. On the other end of the spectrum are gamma rays with wavelengths billions of times smaller than those of visible light.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

θ=142.9°

Explanation:

d=1 *r

angle ϕ= 37.1°

the line connecting pebble and target should be tangent to a circle so

cos(180-ϕ-θ)=\frac{r}{d}=\frac{1}{1}

∴ θ=180-ϕ-cos^{-1} (\frac{1}{1} )

  θ= 180-37.1-0

  θ=142.9°

A vehicle should never be parked closer to a fire hydrant than: <span>15 feet
Fire hydrants are reserved by the government as the source of water for the fire department to put out the fire during a burning accident.
If you put your vehicle too close to the hydrant, it could potentially block the process during an emergency situation and could cost us humans' life.</span>
