Answer:

y₀ = 10.625 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the kinematic relations, where the upward direction is positive.

         y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

in the exercise they indicate the initial velocity v₀ = 8 m / s.

when the rock reaches the ground its height is zero

         0 = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

        y₀i = -v₀ t + ½ g t²

let's calculate

         y₀ = - 8  2.5 + ½  9.8  2.5²

         y₀ = 10.625 m

Answer:

(1) 1×10⁻⁴

Explanation:

From the question,

α = (ΔL/L)/(ΔT)............. Equation 1

Where α = linear expansivity of the metal plate, ΔL/L = Fractional change in Length, ΔT = Rise in temperature.

Given: ΔL/L = 1×10⁻⁴, ΔT = 10°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

α  = 1×10⁻⁴/10

α = 1×10⁻⁵ °C⁻¹ .

β = (ΔA/A)/ΔT................... Equation 2

Where β = Coefficient of Area expansivity, ΔA/A = Fractional change in area.

make ΔA/A the subject of the equation

ΔA/A = β×ΔT.......................... Equation 3

But,

β = 2α.......................... Equation 4

Substitute equation 4 into equation 3

ΔA/A = 2α×ΔT................ Equation 5

Given: ΔT = 5°C, α = 1×10⁻⁵ °C⁻¹

Substitute into equation 5

ΔA/A = ( 2)×(1×10⁻⁵)×(5)

ΔA/A  = 10×10⁻⁵

ΔA/A  = 1×10⁻⁴

Hence the right option is (1) 1×10⁻⁴

5. What is the angle between the incident and reflected rays when a ray of light incident
Digiron [165]

Answer:

The angle will be 0 . The angle between the incident ray and the mirror is called angle of incidence while the angle between reflected ray and the normal is called angle of reflection. Here, the a ray of light is incident normally on a plane mirror.

You short-circuit a 18 volt battery by connecting a short wire from one end of the battery to the other end. if the current in t
mina [271]
The relationship between the voltage and the current in the circuit is:
\Delta V = RI
where \Delta V is the voltage difference, R the resistance of the circuit (and therefore, the resistance of the battery) and I the current flowing in the circuit. By using I=19 A and \Delta V = 18 V, we can find the internal resistance of the battery:
R= \frac{\Delta V}{I}= \frac{18 V}{19 A}=0.95 \Omega

What is the mass of a volleyball that has 260 J of kinetic energy and travels at a velocity of 15m/s
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

2.3 kg

Explanation:

KE = ½ mv²

260 J = ½ m (15 m/s)²

m = 2.31 kg

Rounding to two significant figures, the mass of the volleyball is 2.3 kg.
