A ball is released from a tower at a height of 100 meters toward the roof of another tower that is 25 meters high. The horizonta

l distance between the two towers is 20 meters. With what horizontal velocity should the ball be imparted so that it lands on the rooftop of the second building?

-- During the time the ball is flying from the high roof to the low roof,
it's going to fall (100-25) = 75 meters.
How long does it take an object dropped from rest to fall 75 meters ?

Distance = (1/2) · (gravity) · (time)²

75 m = (4.9 m/s²) · (time)²

Time² = (75 m) / (4.9 m/s²)
Time² = 15.31 sec²
Time = √(15.31 sec²)  =  3.91 seconds 

So the ball has to cover the horizontal distance of 20 meters 
in 3.91 seconds.

Distance = (speed) · (time)

20 m = (speed) · (3.91 sec)

Speed = (20 m) / (3.91 sec)

Speed  =  5.11 m/s

Answer:

The mass of the Al-duckie should be 30 kg.

Explanation:

We will use the first law of thermodynamics:

ΔU = m·Cv·ΔT

Since the specific heat of water is 4.185 J(gºC), the change in the water's internal energy would be:

ΔU = 100 kg · 4.185 J(gºC) · (42ºC - 38ºC) = 1674 KJ

Given that no heat is lost, all the internal energy that the water loses while cooling down will transfer to the duckie.  So, if the duckie has ΔU = 1674 KJ and its final temperature is the desired 38 ºC, we can calculate its mass using the first law again:

m=\frac{\Delta{U}}{Cv{\Delta{T}}}=\frac{1674}{0.9*[38-(-24)]}=30Kg

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Using Faraday's law;

ε= -N ∆ψ(B)/ ∆t;

∆t= -N ∆ψ(B)/ ε

Explanation:

Using Faraday's law; Faraday's law state that the induced emf is directly proportional to the rate of change of time of magnetic flux

ε= -N ∆ψ(B)/ ∆t;

Where ε= induced EMF, ∆ψ(B)/ ∆t is the rate of change of magnetic flux, ψ(B) = BA cos θ

θ= the angle between the magnetic field B and the normal surface area.

We can also calculate the direction of induced magnetic flux. At first, the field is perpendicular to the plane of the loop,the loop can rotate about either an horizontal or vertical axis passing through the mid point

To reduce inductive reactance, what devices are normally placed on transmission or distribution lines?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer : Capacitors

Explanation : Capacitors are normally  placed on transmission or distribution lines when to reduce inductive reactance.

This is because it enhances electromechanical and voltage stability , limit voltage dips at network nodes and reduces the power loss.

So, we can say that inductive reactance normally replace by the capacitors.

during a crash, the acceleration was less than 30g. Calculate the force on a 70 kg person accelerating at this rate.
Igoryamba

Answer:

less than 20580 N

Explanation:

According to the newton's second law of motion

Force = mass * acceleration

(assuming gravitational acceleration =9.8 m/s2 )

acceleration = 30*9.8 = 294 m/s2

acting Force = 70 * 294

                     = 20580 N

Since the acceleration was less than 30g  , acting force should also be less than 20580 N
