Answer:

Time, t = 4.08 secs

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Initial velocity, U = 40m/s

To find the time, we would use the first equation of motion;

V = U + at

Where;

  • V is the final velocity.
  • U is the initial velocity.
  • a is the acceleration.
  • t is the time measured in seconds.

<em>Making time, t the subject of formula, we have;</em>

t = \frac{V - U}{a}

We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is 9.8m/s².

a = g = - 9.8m/s² because the ball is thrown in the opposite direction.  

Also, the final velocity is equal to zero (0) because the ball reached its maximum height.

<em>Substituting into the equation, we have;</em>

t = \frac{0 - 40}{-9.8}

t = \frac{-40}{-9.8}

Time, t = 4.08 secs

<em>Therefore, it will take the ball 4.08 seconds to reach the top. </em>

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a) Work done, W = 1.82 x 10^4 J

(b) internal energy, U = - 4.07 x 10^4 J ( as it decreases)

(c) According to the first law of thermodynamics  

Q = W + U

Q = 1.82 x 10^4 - 4.07 x 10^4

Q = - 2.25 x 10^4 J

Which causes some genetic disorders and genetic diseases?
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

A genetic disorder is a disease caused in whole or in part by a change in the DNA sequence away from the normal sequence. Genetic disorders can be caused by a mutation in one gene (monogenic disorder), by mutations in multiple genes (multifactorial inheritance disorder), by a combination of gene mutations and environmental factors, or by damage to chromosomes (changes in the number or structure of entire chromosomes, the structures that carry genes).

A person uses eyeglasses with a power of -5.5 D. The lenses are 1.8 cm from the person's eye. What is the furthest this person c
bija089 [108]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

power(P)=\frac{1}{f}

f = focal length

P = -5.5 D (negative power means that lens is concave)

f=\frac{1}{P}=\frac{1}{-5.5 D}= -0.1818 m

1 m = 100 cm

f = -0.1818 m = -0.1818 × 100 cm= -18.18 cm

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}

u=\infty

\frac{1}{-18.18 cm}=\frac{1}{\infty }+\frac{1}{v}

v = -18.18 cm

v = 1.8 cm - far point

far point = 1.8 cm - v =1.8 cm - (-18.18 cm) =  19.98 cm

But closest answer from the given options is option B.Hence, 20 cm is the correct answer.
