Answer:

c 8.80 s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of Empire State Building  = 380m

Unknown:

Time taken for King Kong to fall  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use one of the kinematics equation.

The appropriate one is given below;

      H  = ut + \frac{1}{2} g t²  

H is the height

t is the time taken

g is the acceleration due to gravity

            380  = (0 x t) + ( \frac{1}{2}  x 9.8 x t²)

           380  = 4.9t²  

             t²  = 77.55

              t = 8.8s

The correct answer is decreases

The further away you are the weaker it would be. That's why at one point you stop being in the field and ti doesn't pull you towards it anymore. Proportionally, if you move towards the Earth then it increases.

Adolf and Ed are wearing harnesses and are hanging at rest from the ceiling by means of ropes attached to them. Face to face, th
exis [7]

Answer:

0.78 m

Explanation:

By the conservation of energy, the energy that they gain from potential energy, must be equal to the kinetic energy. So, for Adolf:

Ep = Ek

ma*g*ha = ma*va²/2

Where ma is the mass of Adolf, g is the gravity acceleration (10 m/s²), ha is the height that he reached, and va is the velocity. So:

100*10*0.51 = 100*va²/2

50va² = 510

va² = 10.2

va = √10.2

va = 3.20 m/s

Before the push, both of them are in rest, so the momentum must be 0. The system is conservative, so the momentum after the push must be equal to the momentum before the push:

ma*va + me*ve = 0, where me and ve are the mass and velocity of Ed. So:

100*3.20 + 81ve = 0

81ve = 320

ve = 3.95 m/s

By the conservation of energy for Ed:

me*g*he = me*ve²/2

81*10*he = 81*(3.95)²/2

810he = 631.90

he = 0.78 m

What is the amount of electric current passing through the heating oil of a hot plate if 25 C of charge passes through it in 7 s
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Current, I = 3.57A

Explanation:

A current of I amperes means that I Coulombs of charge flows through the conductor (heating coil) per second.

Therefore, in time t, the total charge (Q) passing through any point in which the current (C) flows will be given by the equation;

Q = It

Where; Q is the charge in coulombs; I is the current in amperes; t is the time in seconds.

From the question, we were given the following parameters;

Q = 25C, t= 7secs and I =?

From the equation, Q = It

We make current, I the subject of formula;

Thus, I = Q/t

Substituting into the equation;

I = 25/7

I = 3.57Amp.
