Physics
1 answer:
bekas [8.4K]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

As a tornado or other storm system passes over a building, low pressure can tug a roof upward. When those forces surpass the force exerted by the weight of the roof, the structure flies up and is swept away by wind currents..

An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration of 0.281 m/s2 to the South for a time of 5.44 seconds. It then increases
andre [41]

Answer:

12.0 meters

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a₁ = 0.281 m/s²

t₁ = 5.44 s

a₂ = 1.43 m/s²

t₂ = 2.42 s

Find: x

First, find the velocity reached at the end of the first acceleration.

v = at + v₀

v = (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s) + 0 m/s

v = 1.53 m/s

Next, find the position reached at the end of the first acceleration.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 0 m + (0 m/s) (5.44 s) + ½ (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s)²

x = 4.16 m

Finally, find the position reached at the end of the second acceleration.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 4.16 m + (1.53 m/s) (2.42 s) + ½ (1.43 m/s²) (2.42 s)²

x = 12.0 m

I believe that if you shine a light in the front of a binocular, then the light would condense and be more pin-pointed while if you point it through the part where your eyes go the light would blow up. Either way, the light will be refracted once it travels through the lenses.
