<h2>a) Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward</h2><h2>b) Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward</h2>

Explanation:

a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²

    s(0) = 76 + 128 x 0 − 16 x 0² = 76 ft

    s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft

    Displacement in 4 seconds = 332 - 76 = 256 ft

    Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

    \texttt{Velocity = }\frac{256}{4}=64ft/s

    Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward

a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²

    s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft

    s(8) = 76 + 128 x 8 − 16 x 8² = 78 ft

    Displacement in 4 seconds = 78 - 332 = -254 ft

    Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

    \texttt{Velocity = }\frac{-254}{4}=-63.5ft/s

    Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward

lara [203]

At the ground the ball will always have velocity along the direction of gravity. If upward motion is taken positive it will always have negative velocity at the ground because, if the ball was given an initial upward velocity then gravity will decelerate it and bring it down with a negative final velocity. If the ball is given an initial downward velocity then the ball will be further accelerated by gravity in the downward direction only, again maintaining negative direction. The magnitude however in both cases will be different. the final velocity at the ground will have higher magnitude in case of elevator moving downwards.

A dipole of moment 0.5 e·nm is placed in a uniform electric field with a magnitude of 8 times 104 N/C. What is the magnitude of
Over [174]

Answer:

The net torque is zero

Explanation:

Let's assume that the dipole is compose of two equal but oposite charges e, and it cam be represented by a rod with one end having a charge e and the other end with a charge of -e. Notice that the dipole is parallel to the electric field thus the force felt by both of the charges will be parallel to the electric field. This means that there will be no components of the forces that are perpendicular to the rod which is a requirement for it to have a torque.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Absolute zero

Explanation:

A Bose-Einstein condensate is known as the fifth state of matter which is made of a collection of ultra cooled atoms (at almost absolute zero degrees -273.15 °C) such that the there is very slight free energy within the atoms which results in almost no relative motion between the atoms. The atoms then combine forming clumps such that phenomena usually observed at the microscopic level such as wavefunction interference become observable at the microscopic level.
