The Sun light is reflected back by earth. On process of reflecting back the sunlight, the lower layer of troposphere absorbs the most sunlight and upper layer absorbs the least sunlight. So when We ascend to troposphere, we move towards the upper layer of troposphere where sunlight is least absorbed and is colder than lower layer where sunlight is most absorbed

Indica si las siguientes acciones son el resultado de un efecto estatico o dinamico de una fuerza.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Sabemos por definición que la fuerza es lo que es capaz de producir cambios o deformaciones en un cuerpo y a esto se denomina efecto estático y cuando la alteración ejerce movimiento o reposo se denomina efecto dinámico, con esta base resolvemos que:

-estirar un muelle: efecto estatico

- devolver una volea: efecto dinámico

- aplastar la plastilina: efecto estático

- empujar el carro del supermercado: efecto dinámico

- inflar un globo: efecto estático

Several days after snowfall , the roofs of some homes on your street have almost no snow on them, while the roofs on other homes

Alina [70]

Explanation:

This due to thermal insulation of some of the roof.

An insulator is body is a poor conductor of heat and will require high thermal energy to cause temperature changes.

A house with a roof that is thermally insulated will have poor heat conduction.
Since little heat is conducted, there wont be enough thermal energy to melt the snow.
Thermal energy is directly related to heat.
A house that is not insulated will absorb a lot of heat.
This will cause the snow to melt very fast.

A rock is thrown upward from a bridge into a river below. The function f(t)=−16t2+44t+88 determines the height of the rock above

babymother [125]

1) 88 ft

2) 4.09 s

3) 1.38 s

4) 118.2 m

Explanation:

1)

For an object thrown upward and subjected to free fall, the height of the object at any time t is given by the suvat equation:

$h(t) = h_0 + ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$ (1)

where

$h_0$ is the height at time t = 0

$u$ is the initial vertical velocity

$g=32 ft/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity

The function that describes the height of the rock above the surface at a time t in this problem is

$f(t)=-16t^2+44t+88$ (2)

By comparing the terms with same degree of eq(1) and eq(2), we observe that

$h_0 = 88 ft$

which means that the rock is at height h = 88 ft when t = 0: therefore, this means that the height of the bridge above the water is 88 feet.

2)

The rock will hit the water when its height becomes zero, so when

$f(t)=0$

which means when

$0=-16t^2+44t+88$

First of all, we can simplify the equation by dividing each term by 4:

$0=-4t^2+11t+22$

This is a second-order equation, so we solve it using the usual formula and we find:

$t_{1,2}=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-11\pm \sqrt{(11)^2-4(-4)(22)}}{2(-4)}=\frac{-11\pm \sqrt{121+352}}{-8}=\frac{-11\pm 21.75}{-8}$

Which gives only one positive solution (we neglect the negative solution since it has no physical meaning):

t = 4.09 s

So, the rock hits the water after 4.09 seconds.

3)

Here we want to find how many seconds after being thrown does the rock reach its maximum height above the water.

For an object in free fall motion, the vertical velocity is given by the expression

$v=u-gt$

where

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

The object reaches its maximum height when its velocity changes direction, so when the vertical velocity is zero:

$v=0$

which means

$0=u-gt$

Here we have

$u=+44 ft/s$ (initial velocity)

$g=32 ft/s^2$ (acceleration due to gravity)

Solving for t, we find the time at which this occurs:

$t=\frac{u}{g}=\frac{44}{32}=1.38 s$

4)

The maximum height of the rock can be calculated by evaluating f(t) at the time the rock reaches the maximum height, so when

t = 1.38 s

The expression that gives the height of the rock at time t is

$f(t)=-16t^2+44t+88$

Substituting t = 1.38 s, we find:

$f(1.38)=-16(1.38)^2 + 44(1.38)+88=118.2 m$

So, the maximum height reached by the rock during its motion is

$h_{max}=118.2 m$

Which means 118.2 m above the water.

a certain hydraulic jack is used for lifting load. a force of 250N is applied on a small piston with a diameter of 80cm while th

anzhelika [568]

The maximum mass of a load that can be lifted by the jack and the distance covered are:

m = 160.2 Kg

h = 25 cm

Given that a certain hydraulic jack is used for lifting load. a force of 250N is applied on a small piston with a diameter of 80cm while the diameter of the larger piston is 2.0m.

The parameters given are

$F_{1}$ = 250

$A_{1}$ = Area of the small piston = π $r^{2}$

$A_{1}$ = 22/7 x $0.4^{2}$

$A_{1}$ = 0.5 $m^{2}$

$F_{2}$ = ?

$A_{2}$ = Area of the large piston = π $r^{2}$

$A_{2}$ = π x 1

$A_{2}$ = 3.14 $m^{2}$

To calculate the force on the large piston, we will use the below formula

$F_{1}$ / $A_{1}$ = $F_{2}$ / $A_{2}$

Substitute all the parameters into the equation

250/0.5 = $F_{2}$ /3.14

$F_{2}$ = 1570 N

To calculate the maximum mass of a load that can be lifted by the jack, let us apply Newton second law

F = mg

1570 = 9.8m

m = 1570/9.8

m = 160.2 Kg

.(take g=9.81ms^-2)

If the applied force moves through a distance of 25cm, the distance through which the load is lifted will be

$F_{1}$ / 0.25 $A_{1}$ = $F_{2}$ / $A_{2}$ h

250/0.125 = 1570/3.14h

make h the subject of the formula

6280h = 1570

h = 1570/6280

h = 0.25 m

Therefore, the distance through which the load is lifted is 25 cm
