Explanation:

The difference of electrical potential between two points is called the potential difference.

It is also defined as the work done in the transfer of a unit quantity of electricity from one point to the other.

The SI unit of electric potential is volt. It is denoted by V.

While standing at the edge of the roof of a building, you throw a stone upward with an initial speed of 5.65 m/s. The stone subs
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

1. 20.54m/s

2. 1.52s

Explanation:

QUESTION 1:

The speed the stone impact the ground is the final speed/velocity, which can be calculated using the formula:

v² = u² + 2as

Where;

v = final velocity (m/s)

u = initial velocity (m/s)

a = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

s = distance (m)

From the provided information, u = 5.65m/s, v = ?, s = 19.9m, a = 9.8m/s²

v² = 5.65² + 2 (9.8 × 19.9)

v² = 31.9225 + 2 (195.02)

v² = 31.9225 + 390.04

v² = 421.9625

v = √421.9625

v = 20.5417

v = 20.54m/s

QUESTION 2:

Using v = u + at

Where v = final velocity (m/s) = 20.54m/s

t = time (s)

u = initial velocity (m/s) = 5.65m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

v = u + at

20.54 = 5.65 + 9.8t

20.54 - 5.65 = 9.8t

14.89 = 9.8t

t = 14.89/9.8

t = 1.519

t = 1.52s

At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car’s skid mark to be 88 m long. The accident occurred on a rainy
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The the speed of the car is 26.91 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

distance d = 88 m

Kinetic friction = 0.42

We need to calculate the the speed of the car

Using  the work-energy principle

work done = change in kinetic energy

W=\Delta K.E

\mu\ mg\times d=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v^2=2\mu g d

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{2\times0.42\times9.8\times88}

v=26.91\ m/s

Hence, The the speed of the car is 26.91 m/s.
