Answer:

Explanation:

Using the formula;

Speed = Distance/Time

Given

Speed = 8km/s

Time = 2hr

Convert 2hr to secs

1hr = 3600secs

2hr = 2(3600)

2hr = 7200secs

Altitude is the distance

From the formula;

Distance = speed × time

Distance = 8×7200

Distance = 57200km

Hence the altitude at this point is 57,200km

An industrial firm has two electrical loads connected in parallel across the power source. Power is supplied to the firm at 4000
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

I = 27.65A < 40.59°

PowerFactor = 0.76

Explanation:

Current on the heating load is:

I1 = 30KW / 4KV = 7.5A < 0°

Current on the inductive load:

I2 = (150KVA*0.6) /4KV = 22.5A  with an angle of acos(0.6)=53.1°

The sum of both currents is:

It = I1 + I2 = 7.5<0° + 22.5<53.1° = 27.65<40.59°

Now, the power factor will be:

pf = cos (40.59°) = 0.76

A ball of mass m is thrown straight upward from ground level at speed v0. At the same instant, at a distance D above the ground,
Alla [95]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the balls collide after time t .

distance covered by falling ball

s₁ = v₀ t + 1/2 g t²

distance covered by rising ball

s₂ = v₀ t - 1/2 g t²

Given ,

s₁ + s₂ = D

D = v₀ t + 1/2 g t² + v₀ t - 1/2 g t²

= 2v₀ t

t = D / 2v₀

s₂ = v₀ t - 1/2 g t²

= v₀ x D / 2v₀ - (1/2) x  g x D² / 4v₀²

= D / 2 - gD² / 8 v₀²
