Answer:

3secs

Explanation:

Given the following parameters

height H= 81.3m

Velocity v = 12.4m/s

Required

Time it take to reach the ground

Using the equation of motion

H = ut+1/2gt²

81.3 = 12.4t + 1/2(9.8)t²

81.3 = 12.4t + 4.9t²

4.9t² + 12.4t - 81.3 = 0

Using the general formula to find t

t = -12.4±√12.4²-4(4.9)(-81.3)/2(4.9)

t = -12.4±√153.76+1593.48/2(4.9)

t = -12.4±√1747.24/9.8

t = -12.4+41.8/9.8

t = 29.4/9.8

t = 3secs

Hence it took 3secs to reach the ground

People have proposed driving motors with the earth's magnetic field. This is possible in principle, but the small field means th
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

636.619772368 A

Explanation:

\tau = Torque = 1\times 10^{-3}\ N/m

B = Magnetic field of Earth = 5\times 10^{-5}\ T

A = Area

d = Diameter = 20 cm

Current is given by

I=\dfrac{\tau}{BA}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1\times 10^{-3}}{5\times 10^{-5}\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.2^2}\\\Rightarrow I=636.619772368\ A

The current is 636.619772368 A

If the energy bar was his only fuel, how far could a 68 kg person walk at 5 km/h?
goldfiish [28.3K]

An energy bar contains of 20grams of carbohydrates and 1gram is equal to 17 KJ. If the energy bar was his only fuel the total energy available is equal to (17,000 x 20) = 340,000j. Estimate KJ per hour is equal to 1539KJ, it has Time equal to (340,000/1539,000) is equal to 0.2209 hour and his Distance is equal to (5,000 x .2209) = 1.1045km.
