An acorn falls from a tree and hits the ground in 0.8 s. How far did the acorn fall . Use g = 9.8 m/s^2. Round your final result

mylen [45]

The distance covered by the acorn is 3.136 m.

Explanation:

The time taken for the acorn to hit the ground is 0.8 s. As it is a free fall, the acorn will be completely under the influence of gravity. So the acceleration will be acceleration due to gravity.

Then using the second law of equation,

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Since the initial velocity and time is zero, then the time taken to reach the ground is stated as 0.8 s, so

$s=0+\left(\frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times 0.8 \times 0.8\right)=\frac{6.272}{2}=3.136 \mathrm{m}$

So the distance covered by the acorn is 3.136 m.

Which group in the periodic table is known as salt farmers?

adell [148]

Which group in the periodic table is known as salt formers?

The correct option is the last one: Halogen family.

You can find the halogen or "salt formers" in the group 17 of the periodic table. These are:

- Fluorine.
-Chlorine.
- Bromine.
- Iodine.
- Astatine.

All of them are non-metallic elements and they have 7 electrons.

A tank contains 350 liters of fluid in which 10 grams of salt is dissolved. Brine containing 1 gram of salt per liter is then pu

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

$A(t) = -340e^{-t/70} + 350$

Explanation:

Since fluid is pumping in and out at the same rate (5L/min), the total fluid volume in the tank stays constant at 350L. Only the amount of salt and its concentration changed overtime.

Let A(t) be the amount of salt (g) at time t and C(t) (g/L) be the concentration at time t

A(0) = 10 g

Brine with concentration of 1g/L is pouring in at the rate of 5L/min so the salt income rate is 5 g/min

The well-mixed solution is pouring out at the rate of 5L/min at concentration C(t) so the salt outcome rate is 5C g/min

But the concentration is total amount of salt over 350L constant volume

C = A / 350

Therefore our rate of change for salt A' is

A' = 5 - 5A/350 = 5 - A/70

This is a first-order linear ordinary differential equation and it has the form of y' = a + by. The solution of this is

$y = ce^{bt} + \frac{a}{b}$

So $A = ce^{\frac{-t}{70}} + \frac{5}{1/70} = ce^{-t/70} + 350$

with A(0) = 10

c + 350 = 10

c = 10 - 350 = -340

$A(t) = -340e^{-t/70} + 350$
