S_A_V [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A short circuit is an abnormal connection between two nodes of an electric circuit intended to be at different voltages. This results in an electric current limited only by the Thévenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network which can cause circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion.

hope it helps.Please give me brainliest O:-)

At a baseball game, the batter hit a fly ball at time t = 0 s. The outfielder caught the ball at t = 5.8 s. When was the ball at
Agata [3.3K]
We have the following equation for height:
 h (t) = (1/2) * (a) * t ^ 2 + vo * t + h0
 Where,
 a: acceleration
 vo: initial speed
 h0: initial height.
 The value of the acceleration is:
 a = -g = -9.8 m / s ^ 2
 For t = 0 we have:
 h (0) = (1/2) * (a) * 0 ^ 2 + vo * 0 + h0
 h (0) = h0
 h0 = 0 (reference system equal to zero when the ball is hit).
 For t = 5.8 we have:
 h (5.8) = (1/2) * (- 9.8) * (5.8) ^ 2 + vo * (5.8) + 0
 (1/2) * (- 9.8) * (5.8) ^ 2 + vo * (5.8) + 0 = 0
 vo = (1/2) * (9.8) * (5.8)
 vo = 28.42
 Substituting values we have:
 h (t) = (1/2) * (a) * t ^ 2 + vo * t + h0
 h (t) = (1/2) * (- 9.8) * t ^ 2 + 28.42 * t + 0
 Rewriting:
 h (t) = -4.9 * t ^ 2 + 28.42 * t
 The maximum height occurs when:
 h '(t) = -9.8 * t + 28.42
 -9.8 * t + 28.42 = 0
 t = 28.42 / 9.8
 t = 2.9 seconds.
 Answer:
 
The ball was at maximum elevation when:
 
t = 2.9 seconds.

Which of the following is not an example of natural climate change?
wlad13 [49]

(c) is the correct choice.

El Nino (a), Earth's orbit (b), and solar energy output (d) are all "natural" occurrences.  You can't do a thing aboutum.

Fossil fuels ... or, more precisely, humanity's use of vast quantities of fossil fuels as a convenient source of huge quantities of energy ... and the subsequent increase of Carbon Dioxide in the planet's atmosphere, is not the result of "natural" processes.  It's the result of human efforts to <em>alter and control</em> Nature, through <em>artificial</em> processes.

4. A family leaves from New York City and is flying to Los Angles which is 2800mi away. It takes
Blizzard [7]

The average speed of the whole travel is equal to <u>400 mph</u>.

Why?

From the statement, we know that whole travel is divided into three parts. For the first part (traveling from New York to Chicago), we have that it was 3.25 hours and the covered distance was half of the total distance (1400mi). For the second part, we have that it was 1 hour (layover time), and the covered no distance. For the third part (traveling from Chicago to Los Angeles), we have that it was 2.75 hours, and it took the other half of the total distance (1400mi).

We can calculate the average speed of the whol travel using the following formula:

AverageSpeed=\frac{distance_{1}+distance_{2}+distance_{3}}{time_{1}+time{2}+time_{3}}

Now, substituting and calculating, we have:

AverageSpeed=\frac{1400mi+0mi+1400mi}{3.25h+1h+2.75h}

AverageSpeed=\frac{2800mi}{7h}=400mph

Hence, we have the average speed of the whole travel is equal to 400 mph.

Have a nice day!
