The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)
We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '. D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Multiply each side by 2 : 2 D = g t²
Divide each side by ' g ' : 2 D/g = t²
Square root each side: t = √ (2D/g)
Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:
-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .--
They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.
Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value of gravity on the surface of the Earth.
So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.
It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the surface of the Moon.
Efficiency is calculated through dividing the actual mechanical advantage by the hypothetical mechanical advantage:
- the actual mechanical advantage is 9J because that's how much work the light bulb doing
- the hypo. mechanical advantage is 100J. Ideally, in a perfect world, the light bulb can convert 100J input into 100J output, but do to resistance and other factors it is not possible.
change the decimal to a percentage:
the light bulb had 9% efficiency
The correct answer is A. Acid rain forms from human activities and lowers the pH of rainwater below 7
Explanation:
The term "acid rain" is used to refer to rainwater with a low pH or a high acidity, this includes rainwater with a pH below 7 (solutions with a pH under 7 are acidic). In terms of formation, acid rain is mainly the result of human activities such as factories or cars that release pollutants into the atmosphere including nitric and sulfuric acids and these alter the natural pH of rain and makes it more acidic. Additionally, acid rain has negative consequences such as the death of fishes and other organisms in lakes, rivers, etc. because the acidity is toxic to many organisms. Thus, acid rain is the result of human activities and it lowers the pH of rain (Option A).
Answer:
Explanation:
spring constant k = 425 N/m
a ) At the point of equilibrium
restoring force = frictional force
= kx = 10 N
425 x = 10
x = 2.35 cm
b )
Work done by frictional force
= -10 x 2.35 x 10⁻² x 2 J ( Distance is twice of 2.35 cm )
= - 0.47 J
= Kinetic energy remaining with the cookie as it slides back through the position where the spring is unstretched .
= 425 - 0.47
= 424.53 J

As the distance from a charged particle, "q", increases, the electric potential decreases.
<h3>
Electric potential between particles</h3>
The electric potential between particles is the work done in moving a unit charge from infinity to a certain point against the electrical resistance of the field.
V = Kq/r
where;
- K is Coulomb's constant
- q is the magnitude of the charge
- r is the distance between the charges
Thus, from the formula above, as the distance from a charged particle, "q", increases, the electric potential decreases.
