Answer:

The final velocity is 28.14 m/s

Yes the angle of projection matters

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the water balloon, u = 20 m/s

height of the building, h = 20 m

let the final speed of the ball when it hits the ground = v

The final speed is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = (20)²  +  2(9.8)(20)

v² = 400 + 392

v² = 792

v = √792

v = 28.14 m/s

Yes the angle matters, if the balloon had been dropped at a certain angle, the final velocity would have been estimated using the following formula;

v_y^2 = u_y^2 sin^2(\theta) + 2gh_y

where;

θ is the angle of projection, which accounts for the vertical component of the velocity.

Identify each statement that describes a benefit of the scientific method. (Select all choices that apply)
Alecsey [184]

The statements that describe a benefit of the scientific method are as follows:

  • It gives scientists a standardized way to approach a problem.
  • It reduces bias and judgment from personal experiences.
  • It gives scientists a common vocabulary for sharing information.

Thus, the correct options are B, C, and D.

<h3>What is the Scientific method?</h3>

The scientific method may be defined as a strategy of research in which a problem is recognized, relevant data is collected, a conjecture is composed of this data, and the assumption is empirically tested to determine the outcome of particular research.

The scientific method never explains or provides an answer to any question immediately because it consists of a scripted format with certain parameters.

The scientific method uses the identical vocabulary for sharing information with one another in particular terminology.

Therefore, it is well described above.

Calculate the percentage increase in speed of the cyclist when the power output changes from 200 W to 300 W.
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

<em>50%</em>

Explanation:

Given

Initial power = 200W

Final power = 300W

Increment = 300 - 200 = 100W

percentage increase = increment/initial power * 100

percentage increase = 100/200 * 100%

percentage increase = 0.5 * 100

percentage increase = 50%

<em>Hence the percentage increase in speed is 50%</em>

Classify the properties as extensive or intensive: mass density; color volume; total energy; temperature; melting point
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Intensive properties

Density

Color

temperature

Melting point

Extensive properties

Mass

Volume

Total Energy

Explanation:

Intensive properties:  In Physics, Intensive properties which are not depend of the amount of matter in a sample, It only depends of the type of matter, some examples of intensive properties are:

1. Density: It is a intensive property. It can explain better with a example:  the water density is 1000 kg/m3, So if we have 1 liter or 1000 liters of water  the density will be the same for the two samples.

2. Color: Solid sodium chloride is white. If you have 2 samples the first recipient  with 2 kilograms of NaCl and the second with 10 kilograms of NaCl. The color of the substance does not depend on the amount of the substance.

As was mentioned before the same theory is applied to temperature and melting point concepts.

On the other hand,

Extensive properties are properties of the matter which depend on the amount of matter that is present in the system or sample. some examples are:

1. Mass: It is a property that measures the amount of matter that an object contains. For example, 10 kilograms of solid Copper contains a higher mass than 2 kilograms of the same metal.  

2. Volume: It is a property which measures the space occupied by an object or a substance. For example, the space occupied by a glass of milk is lower than the space occupied by a bottle of milk, Then the volume of the glass of milk is lower than the volume of the bottle of milk.

3. Finally the total energy is contained in molecules and atoms that constituted systems  so, if the amount of matter increases the number of molecules too, then the total energy will increase.

I hope it helps you.

1. All the relevant resistors are in series, so the total (or equivalent) resistance is the sum of the resistances of the resistors: 20 Ω + 80 Ω + 50 Ω = 150 Ω [choice A].

2. The ammeter will read the current flowing through this circuit. We can find the ammeter reading using Ohm's law in terms of the electromotive force provided by the battery: I = ℰ/R = (30 V)(150 Ω) = 0.20 A [choice C].

3. The voltmeter will measure the potential drop across the 50 Ω resistor, i.e., the voltage at that resistor. We know from question 2 that the current flowing through the resistor is 0.20 A. So, from Ohm's law, V = IR = (0.20 A)(50 Ω) = 10. V, which will be the voltmeter reading [choice F].

4. Trick question? If the circuit becomes open, then no current will flow. Moreover, even if the voltmeter were kept as element of the circuit, voltmeters generally have a very high resistance (an ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance), so the current moving through the circuit will be negligible if not nil. In any case, the ammeter reading would be 0 A [choice B].
