A raindrop falls to the ground from a rain cloud at an altitude of 3000 meters.

Physics
1 answer:
shutvik [7]3 years ago
8 0

Assuming the raindrop was stationary relative to the vertical distance to the ground at the start:

D=0.5at where d is distance, a is acceleration and t is time

D is 300 meters

a is 9.8 meter/sec squared

Solve for t in seconds

t = 61.2 seconds

v=at where v is velocity

a is 9.8 meters per second squared

t is 61.2 seconds

solve for v

v = 600 meters per second.

If it had an initial vertical velocity (v0) at the start :

d= 0.5at+v0t

and

v=at+v0

A 100-turn, 3.0-cm-diameter coil is at rest in a horizontal plane. A uniform magnetic field 60%u2218 away from vertical increase
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Induced emf in the coil, E = 0.157 volts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Number of turns, N = 100

Diameter of the coil, d = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Radius of the coil, r = 0.015 m

A uniform magnetic field increases from 0.5 T to 2.5 T in 0.9 s.

Due to this change in magnetic field, an emf is induced in the coil which is given by :

E=-NA\dfrac{\Delta B}{\Delta t}

E=-100\times \pi (0.015)^2\times \dfrac{2.5-0.5}{0.9}

E = -0.157 volts

Minus sign shows the direction of induced emf in the coil. Hence, the induced emf in the coil is 0.157 volts.

Determine the elastic energy U stored in<br> the compressed spring.
hoa [83]

Answer:

Answer: The spring constant of the spring is k = 800 N/m, and the potential energy is U = 196 J. To find the distance, rearrange the equation: The equation to find the distance the spring has been compressed is therefore: The spring has been compressed 0.70 m, which resulted in an elastic potential energy of U = 196 J being stored.

9. Since current is the rate at which charge is flowing, if the current in the circuit decreases, what does that mean about the
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Electric current is defined as the rate of flow of electric charge in a circuit from point one point to another. This is carried by electrically charged particles within the circuit. Current is represented by the symbol I and its unit measured in Amperes. It is therefore related to the voltage and resistance of the circuit. If the current in the circuit reduces, the rate at which the charge and current on the capacitor reduces also proportionally in an exponential manner.

Explanation:

Since a decrease in the flow of current in the circuit is observed, the implication for the rate at which the charge and voltage on the capacitor is also an exponential decrease in the rate of flow with time. This is because the electric current is directly proportional to the electric charge and the time.

What is the magnitude of velocity called?
PIT_PIT [208]
The magnitude<span> of a </span>velocity<span> vector is </span>called<span> speed. Supposethat a wind is blowing in from the direction at a speed of 50 km/h. (This meansthat the direction from which the wind blows is west of the northerly direction.) Apilot is steering a plane in the direction at an airspeed (speed in still air) of250 km/h
