Answer:

Explained below:

Explanation:

The major limitation in the use of Photovoltaic cells to generate electricity is its unpredictability about the climate that whether it will be a shining day or a cloudy day and it does not work at night also because of no presence of sunlight as it totally depends on it. It can be used as an alternative but cannot be used as chief source of electricity.

A wildlife researcher is tracking a flock of geese. The geese fly 4.0km due west, then turn toward the north by 40 degrees and f

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

(a). The distance from the initial position is 6.68 km.

(b). The magnitude of their displacement is 7.05 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

Geese fly 4.0 km due west, then turn to north by 40° and fly another 3.5 km.

(a). We need to calculate the distance from the initial position

Using formula of distance

$D=AB+BC\cos\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$D=4.0+3.5\cos40$

$D=6.68\ km$

(b). We need to calculate the magnitude of their displacement

Using formula of displacement

$AC=\sqrt{CD^2+AD^2}$

$AC=\sqrt{(3.5\sin40)^2+(6.68)^2}$

$AC=7.05\ Km$

Hence, (a). The distance from the initial position is 6.68 km.

(b). The magnitude of their displacement is 7.05 km.

A lead ball is dropped into a lake from a diving board 5.0 meters above the water. After entering the water, it sinks to the bot

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

28.8 meters

Explanation:

We must first determine at which velocity the ball hits the water. To do so we will:

1) Assume no air resistance.

2) Use the Law of conservation of mechanical energy: E=K+P

Where

E is the mechanical energy (which is constant)

K is the kinetic energy.

P is the potential energy.

With this we have $\frac{m}{2} *v^{2} = m*g*h$

Where:

m is the balls's mass <- we will see that it cancels out and as such we don't need to know it.

v is the speed when it hits the water.

g is the gravitational constant (we will assume g=9.8 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$ .

h is the height from which the ball fell.

Because when we initially drop the ball, all its energy is potential (and $P = - m*g*h$ ) and when it hits the water, all its energy is kinetic ( $K=\frac{m}{2} *v^{2}$ . And all that potential was converted to kinetic energy.

Now, from $\frac{m}{2} *v^{2} = m*g*h$ we can deduce that $v=\sqrt{2*g*h}$

Therefore v=9.6 $\frac{m}{s}$

Now, to answer how deep is the lake we just need to multiply that speed by the time it took the ball to reach the bottom.

So D=9.6 $\frac{m}{s}$ *3 $s$ =28.8 $m$

Which is our answer.

What will be the effect on the loudness of sound if the amptitude is doubled and halved?

kap26 [50]

<em>remember that
<u>loudness is directly proportional to the square of amplitude...

when it is halved ,,,loudness is halved,,,</em>

A mass moves back and forth in simple harmonic motion with amplitude A and period T.

Sever21 [200]

a. 0.5 T

- The amplitude A of a simple harmonic motion is the maximum displacement of the system with respect to the equilibrium position

- The period T is the time the system takes to complete one oscillation

During a full time period T, the mass on the spring oscillates back and forth, returning to its original position. This means that the total distance covered by the mass during a period T is 4 times the amplitude (4A), because the amplitude is just half the distance between the maximum and the minimum position, and during a time period the mass goes from the maximum to the minimum, and then back to the maximum.

So, the time t that the mass takes to move through a distance of 2 A can be found by using the proportion

$1 T : 4 A = t : 2 A$
