Answer:

The period of a wave is the time for a particle on a medium to make one complete vibrational cycle. Period, being a time, is measured in units of time such as seconds, hours, days or years. The period of orbit for the Earth around the Sun is approximately 365 days; it takes 365 days for the Earth to complete a cycle.

A ball with 100 J of PE is released from a height of 10 m. What will be the KE of the ball at 5

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The kinetic energy is: 50[J]

Explanation:

The ball is having a potential energy of 100 [J], therefore

PE = [J]

The elevation is 10 [m], and at this point the ball is having only potential energy, the kinetic energy is zero.

$E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\g= gravity[m/s^{2} ]\\m = mass [kg]\\m= \frac{E_{p} }{g*h}\\ m= \frac{100}{9.81*10}\\\\m= 1.01[kg]\\\\$

In the moment when the ball starts to fall, it will lose potential energy and the potential energy will be transforme in kinetic energy.

When the elevation is 5 [m], we have a potential energy of

$P_{e} =m*g*h\\P_{e} =1.01*9.81*5\\\\P_{e} = 50 [J]\\$

This energy is equal to the kinetic energy, therefore

Ke= 50 [J]

To determine the height of a tall building such as Sears Tower in Chicago, Illinois a ball was dropped from the top of the build

Darya [45]

Answer:

The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 feet.

Explanation:

<h3>We apply the free fall formula to the ball: </h3><h3> $y=v_{o} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2}$ </h3><h3>y: The vertical distance the ball moves at time t </h3><h3> $v_{o}$ i: Initial speed </h3><h3>g=Gravity acceleration= $9.8*(\frac{\frac{1ft}{0.305m} }{s^{2} } )$ </h3>

Known information

We know that the vertical distance (y) that the ball moves in 9,5s is equal to height of Sears Tower (h).

Too we know that the ball is released from rest, then, $v_{0}$ =0

Height of Sears Tower calculation:

We replace in the equation 1 the data following;

$y=h$

$v_{o} =0$

$g=32,1\frac{ft}{s^{2} }$

$t= 9,5s$

$h=0*9.5+\frac{1}{2} *32.1*9.5^{2}$

$h=1448.5 ft$

Answer: The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 ft

The velocity of blood flow is ________. A) in direct proportion to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels B) slower

Leto [7]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The velocity at which blood flows in the blood vessels is inversely proportional to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels present in the body. This means that if the cross sectional area of the vessels low, then there will be high rate of blood flow, and vice versa. This blood flow is minimum in the case of capillaries, where it gets enough time for the exchanging of essential nutrients as well as gases.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
