Answer:

1.8 m

Explanation:

Given: Glass falls from a table, smashes 0.6 seconds later

To find: How high a table is

Formula: Vv=gt, dv=1/2gt^2, t=2d/g

Solution: A table's height is measured from the top of the edge down to the floor. The tables are shown both have a height of 30 inches, which is common for many tables.

Data

t = 0.6s

g = 9.81 m/s²

d = ?

Equation

d = $\frac{1}{2}$ $gt$ ²

Math & Units

d = 4.905 (0.6²)
d = 442.676

Hence the table is 1.8 m high

Ocean waves pass through two small openings, 20.0 m apart, in a breakwater. You're in a boat 70.0 m from the breakwater and init

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

λ = 5.65m

Explanation:

The Path Difference Condition is given as:

δ= $(m+\frac{1}{2})\frac{lamda}{n}$ ;

where lamda is represent by the symbol (λ) and is the wavelength we are meant to calculate.

m = no of openings which is 2

∴δ= $\frac{3*lamda}{2}$

n is the index of refraction of the medium in which the wave is traveling

To find δ we have;

δ= $\sqrt{70^2+(33+\frac{20}{2})^2 }-\sqrt{70^2+(33-\frac{20}{2})^2 }$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+(\frac{66+20}{2})^2}-\sqrt{4900+(\frac{66-20}{2})^2}$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+(\frac{86}{2})^2 }-\sqrt{4900+(\frac{46}{2})^2 }$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+43^2}-\sqrt{4900+23^2}$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+1849}-\sqrt{4900+529}$

δ= $\sqrt{6749}-\sqrt{5429}$

δ= 82.15 -73.68

δ= 8.47

Again remember; to calculate the wavelength of the ocean waves; we have:

δ= $\frac{3*lamda}{2}$

δ= 8.47

8.47 = $\frac{3*lamda}{2}$

λ = $\frac{8.47*2}{3}$

λ = 5.65m

if the distance of separation begin two objects is doubled, is the gravitational force between the objects increased or decrease

SashulF [63]

Answer:

force is decreased by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's law of gravitation, the force of gravitation between the two object is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. Now the distance is doubled, so the force between the two objects becomes one forth.

Force is decreased by a factor or 4.

Productivity increases when A. inputs increase while outputs remain the same. B. inputs decrease while outputs remain the same.

Blizzard [7]

Answer: Productivity increases when inputs and outputs increase proportionately.

Explanation:

Productivity increases when inputs and outputs increase proportionately. Input has to be directly proportional to output to be productive. This means increase in input to a system must leads to drastic increase in the output. When the output is not balanced with the amount of input, it leads to unproductivity.

Being productive can be business wise or in terms if personal growth and development.
