Answer:

-1.5m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration can be thought of as [Change in Velocity]/[Change in time]. To find these changes, you simply subtract the initial quantity from the final quantity.

So for this question you have:

  • V_i = 110m/s
  • V_f = 80m/s
  • t_i = 0s
  • t_f = 20s

which means that the acceleration = (80-110)/(20-0)[m/s²] = (-30/20)m/s² = -1.5m/s²

.Express 3.0x10-4 -1.7x10-6 with proper significant figure.
Sav [38]
Because of BOMDAS, you do the multiplication first.

(3.0x10) - 4 - (1.7x10) - 6

= 30 - 4 - 17 - 6

= 3

Rahman drops two stones P and Q each of mass 1 kg and 2 kg simultaneously from
kolbaska11 [484]

This question involves the use of the equations of motion for vertical motion.

The time taken by the stones P and Q to reach the ground is the same, that is "2 s".

The velocity with which Q hits the ground is "20 m/s".

The time taken by the stones to reach the ground can be calculated by using the second equation of motion for the vertical motion:

h = v_it+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

For both the stones P and Q:

h = height = 20 m

v_i = initial velocity = 0 m/s

t = time = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

Therefore,

20\ m = (0\ m/s)t+\frac{1}{2}(10\ m/s^2)(t)^2\\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{20\ m}{5\ m/s^2}}

<u>t = 2 s</u>

<u></u>

Hence, the time taken by both the stones to reach the ground <u>is the same</u>.

To find the final velocity of stone Q we will use the first equation of motion for the vertical motion:

v_f=v_i+gt\\v_f = 0\ m/s+(10\ m/s^2)(2\ s)\\v_f = 20\ m/s

They are adding steel components to the roof supports of the structure. We know that steel elongates when heated. At what temper
Andru [333]

Answer:

The change in temperature of 576.9°C will produce an elongation of 9 inches per feet in steel.

Explanation:

The formula for linear expansion of a material is:

ΔL = αLΔT

where, ΔL = change in length

             L = Original length

           ΔT = Change in temperature

             α = coefficient of linear expansion

For steel, α = 13 x 10^-6 /°C

                L = 100 ft

                ΔL = (9 in)(1 ft/12 in) = 0.75 ft

Therefore,

0.75 ft = (13 x 10^-6 /°C)(100 ft)ΔT

<u>ΔT = 576.9°C</u>

How many times does lightning strike the empire state building
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Lightning strikes the empire state building at an average of about 23 times a year.

Explanation:

The Empire State Building is one of the tallest buildings in New York. Because of how high it stretches up into the sky, lightning strikes are quite common to it. This is because part of the building touches the clouds which are usually charged during thunder storms.

According to weather reports, and the Empire State Building website, lightning strikes the empire state building about 23 times a year on the average.
