Why is fundamental unit called derived unit ?​

Since fundamental units are elementary in nature and cannot be reduced further, so it can not be reduced further, so it cannot be expressed in other units

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Part a)

H = 26.8 m

Part b)

error = 7.18 %

Explanation:

Part a)

As the stone is dropped from height H then time taken by it to hit the floor is given as

t_1 = \sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}

now the sound will come back to the observer in the time

t_2 = \frac{H}{v}

so we will have

t_1 + t_2 = 2.42

\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}} + \frac{H}{v} = 2.42

so we have

\sqrt{\frac{2H}{9.81}} + \frac{H}{336} = 2.42

solve above equation for H

H = 26.8 m

Part b)

If sound reflection part is ignored then in that case

H = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

H = \frac{1}{2}(9.81)(2.42^2)

H = 28.7 m

so here percentage error in height calculation is given as

percentage = \frac{28.7 - 26.8}{26.8} \times 100

percentage = 7.18

1) A tiger leaps horizontally from a 7.5 m high rock with a speed of 4.5 m/s. How far from
Artyom0805 [142]

The distance of tiger's leap from the base of rock is 5.58 m

It is a question of two dimensional motion

The time of motion in two dimensional motion is given by:

t= \sqrt{2y/g}

where y is the height and g is  the acceleration due to gravity

y is given to be 7.5m and let us assume g to be 9.8 m/s^2

t = \sqrt{2 * 7.5/9.8}

 = 1.24s

Using time and speed,

We know that distance is the product of speed and time,

Distance= speed x time

speed is given to be 4.5 m/s

distance from the base of rock = 4.5 x 1.24

                                                    = 5.58m

Hence the distance of tiger's leap from the base of rock is 5.58 m

Disclaimer:

The acceleration due to gravity is assumed to be 9.8 m/s^2

The sources of marine debris and explain why it is a problem with global origins
Lera25 [3.4K]
Marine debris is any trash or litter that ends up in a marine environment. This harms wildlife through entanglement, ingestion, and disturbs the habitat of many species of animals. This becomes a global problem when it is a danger to human health. Nails, syringes, and glass can cause harm to people on the beach. On top of that, trash in the waterway increases the amount of chemicals destroying our water quality.

choli [55]

The speed of a beam of light will appear the same to all observers.

<h3>Speed of light:</h3>

The exact distance that light travels in a vacuum in a second is 299,792,458 meters (983,571,056 feet). This is roughly 186,282 miles per second, or "c," the symbol for light speed in mathematics.

According to Einstein's theory of special relativity, an object (such as a single photon of light) cannot appear to move faster than the speed of light. This physical rule is not broken by Nemiroff's experiment since the laser pointer emits a stream of photons rather than a single photon.

Nothing can move faster than light in a vacuum, according to one of physics' most revered rules. However, in a recent experiment, this speed restriction was broken when a laser pulse traveled at more than 300 times the speed of light.

Nata [24]

Answer:

Your little sister (mass 25.0  ) is sitting in her little red wagon (mass 8.50  at rest. You begin pulling her forward and continue accelerating her with a constant force for 2.35  at the end of which time she's moving at a speed of 1.80  .

(a) Calculate the impulse you imparted to the wagon and its passenger. (b) With what force did you pull on the wagon?
