Answer:

Final velocity of ball is 85.75 m/s

Explanation:

According to the problem, ball is dropped from the window and it experience an acceleration due to Earth's gravity which is denoted by g.

Initially, the ball is at rest, so its initial velocity is zero. The ball takes 8.75 s to fall from the window and hits the ground.

The equation of motion for constant acceleration is :

v = u + at

Here v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, t is time and a is acceleration.

In this case, u is zero and a is equal to g. So, the equation becomes :

v = gt

Substitute 8.75 s for t and 9.8 m/s² for g in the above equation.

v = 9.8 x 8.75

v = 85.75 m/s

The graph below shows the velocity of a car as it attempts to set a speed record. At what point is the car the fastest?

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

B). 3.4 s

Explanation:

As we can see the graph is given between velocity and time

so here we can see that the velocity is changing here with time and initially for some time it moves with constant speed

Then it's speed decreases to next few second and then speed increases to its maximum value

The time after which velocity comes to its maximum value will reach after t = 3 s

so out of the all given options most correct option will be

$t = 3.4 s$

Cobaltâ’60 is a radioactive isotope used to treat cancers of the brain and other tissues. A gamma ray emitted by an atom of this

Crank

Energy of gamma rays is given by equation

$E = h\nu$

here we know that

h = Planck's constant

$\nu = frequency$

now energy is given as

$E = 4.70 MeV = 4.70 \times 10^6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}$

$E = 7.52 \times 10^{-13} J$

now by above equation

$E = h\nu$

$7.52 \times 10^{-13} = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \nu$

$\nu = 1.14 \times 10^{21} Hz$

now for wavelength we can say

$\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}$

$\lambda = \frac{3\times 10^8}{1.14 \times 10^{21}}$

$\lambda = 2.63 \times 10^{-13} m$

Energy is transferred by the process of convection from the hot water at the bottom of the tank to the cooler water at the top.

iragen [17]

The transfer of energy means, in convention process, transport of matter. In this case, hot water has lower density than cool water. The water with less density ascends and leaves gaps that are occupied with cooler water "packages".
