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

In a controlled experiment, a scientist is studying how long it takes feathers of different sizes to fall to the ground. What is
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: independent variable: Size of the feather.

Explanation:

In an experiment, the manipulated/independent variable is, as the name implies, the variable that the scientist can control.

In this case, the scientist has only one variable that he can control at will, and this is the size of the feather (he can choose which feather he uses for the experiment)

So the manipulated variable will be the size of the feather.

And the dependent variable is the one that "answers" to the changes in the manipulated variable.

In this case, will be the time that it takes to the feather to fall to the ground.

Use the concepts on which maxwell’s equations are based to explain why a compass needle is deflected when the compass is brought
miv72 [106K]

A conductor that is conducting current generates a magnetic field everywhere around it. This magnetic field exerts force on the compass's magnetic needle, causing the needle to deviate.

Definition of Maxwell's rule

A current-conducting conductor creates a magnetic field everywhere around it. The magnetic needle of the compass experiences force from this magnetic field, which causes the needle to veer.

Equation for deflection

We have so far established that the total flux of electric field out of a closed surface is just the total enclosed charge multiplied by 1/ε0, ∫→E⋅d→A=q/ε0. This is Maxwell's first equation. It represents completely covering the surface with a large number of tiny patches having areas d→A.
