Answer:

Option C. 1.2 m

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

horizontal velocity (u) = 2.08 m/s

Horizontal distance (s) = 0.96 m

Height (h) of the table =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the lab cart to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

horizontal velocity (u) = 2.08 m/s

Horizontal distance (s) = 0.96 m

Time (t) =?

s = ut

0.96 = 2.08 × t

Divide both side by 2.08

t = 0.96 / 2.08

t = 0.5 s

Finally, we shall determine the height of the table as illustrated below:

Time (t) = 0.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Height (h) of the table =?

h = ½gt²

h = ½× 9.8 × 0.5²

h = 4.9 × 0.25

h = 1.2 m

Thus, the height of the table is 1.2 m

crimeas [40]

Answer:

h' = 603.08 m

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the initial velocity of the pellet on the surface of Earth by using third equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth = - 9.8 m/s² (negative sign due to upward motion)

h = height of pellet = 100 m

Vf = final velocity of pellet = 0 m/s (since, pellet will momentarily stop at highest point)

Vi = Initial Velocity of Pellet = ?

Therefore,

(2)(-9.8 m/s²)(100 m) = (0 m/s)² - Vi²

Vi = √(1960 m²/s²)

Vi = 44.27 m/s

Now, we use this equation at the surface of moon with same initial velocity:

2g'h' = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g' = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon = 1.625 m/s²

h' = maximum height gained by pellet on moon = ?

Therefore,

2(1.625 m/s²)h' = (44.27 m/s)² - (0 m/s)²

h' = (1960 m²/s²)/(3.25 m/s²)

<u>h' = 603.08 m</u>

</span>

Kinetic energy is given as = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

Now, m = 12 gms = 0.012 kg
 And, velocity = 35 kilometers/second = 35000 m/sec

Kinetic energy is given as = \frac{1}{2} 0.012 kg * 35000*35000 m/[tex] s^{2}
                        = 6 10^{-2}×1225 ×10^{6} m/s^{2} 
                        = 7350 kJ

Define light?it's types​
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Light or visible light is electromagnetic radiation within the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be perceived by the human eye. Visible light is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nm, or 4.00 × 10⁻⁷ to 7.00 × 10⁻⁷ m, between the infrared and the ultraviolet.

Explanation:

This is one type of light.
