Please help!How is constant or uniform acceleration used to explain free fall?

1 answer:

4 0

Free fall is a special case of motion with constant acceleration, because acceleration due to gravity is always constant and downward. For example, when a ball is thrown up in the air, the ball's velocity is initially upward.

leva [86]

Answer:

Charge

Explanation:

Charge is a fundamental property of all matter. All matter has electrical and magnetic properties because the atoms that make up matter are held together by electromagnetic forces.

These charges are usually positive and negative charges. When these charges which make up an atom (positive and negative) are equal, the atom is said to be electrically neutral. When positive charge is greater than negative charge, the atom is said to positively charged. Also, if the number of negative charges are more in an atom, the atom is said to be negatively charged.

12) A neutral atom has two, eight, eight electrons in its first, second, and third energy levels.This information ________.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Option C

The information given in the question tells us about the number of electrons in an atom and also the number of shells in the atom. So, we will come to know about the atomic number, size and chemical properties of the atom. But we cannot determine atomic mass. Atomic mass is a function of number of neutrons and protons.

A 5.00-A current runs through a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 2.05 mm) and through a light bulb. Copper has 8.5 * 1028 free ele

evablogger [386]

Answer:

a)n= 3.125 x $10^{19$ electrons.

b)J= 1.515 x $10^{6$ A/m²

c) $V_{d$ =1.114 x $10^{4$ m/s

d) see explanation

Explanation:

Current 'I' = 5A =>5C/s

diameter 'd'= 2.05 x $10^{-3$ m

radius 'r' = d/2 => 1.025 x $10^{-3$ m

no. of electrons 'n'= 8.5 x $10^{28}$

a) the amount of electrons pass through the light bulb each second can be determined by:

I= Q/t

Q= I x t => 5 x 1

Q= 5C

As we know that: Q= ne

where e is the charge of electron i.e 1.6 x $10^{-19$ C

n= Q/e => 5/ 1.6 x $10^{-19$

n= 3.125 x $10^{19$ electrons.

b) the current density 'J' in the wire is given by

J= I/A => I/πr²

J= 5 / (3.14 x (1.025x $10^{-3$ )²)

J= 1.515 x $10^{6$ A/m²

c) The typical speed' $V_{d$ ' of an electron is given by:

$V_{d$ = $\frac{J}{n|q|}$

=1.515 x $10^{6$ / 8.5 x $10^{28}$ x |-1.6 x $10^{-19$ |

$V_{d$ =1.114 x $10^{4$ m/s

d) According to these equations,

J= I/A

$V_{d$ = $\frac{J}{n|q|}$ = $\frac{I}{nA|q|}$

If you were to use wire of twice the diameter, the current density and drift speed will change

Increase in the diameter increase the cross sectional area and decreases the current density as it has inverse relation.

Also drift velocity will decrease as it is inversely proportional to the area

Two buses are driving along parallel freeways that are 5mi apart, one heading east and the other heading west. Assuming that eac

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

101.54m/h

Explanation:

Given that the buses are 5mi apart, and that they are both driving at the same speed of 55m/h, rate of change of distance can be determined using differentiation as;

Let l be the be the distance further away at which they will meet from the current points;

$l=\sqrt{13^2-5^2}=12m\\\\\frac{dl}{dt}=-(55m/h+55m/h})\\\\=-110m/h$ #The speed toward each other.

$\frac{dh}{dt}=0, \ \ \ \ h=constant\\\\h^2+l^2=b^2\\\\2h\frac{dh}{dt}+2l\frac{dl}{dt}=2b\frac{db}{dt}\\\\2\times5\times0+2\times12\times(-110)=2\times13\frac{db}{dt}\\\\\frac{db}{dt}=-101.54m/h$

Hence, the rate at which the distance between the buses is changing when they are 13mi apart is 101.54m/h
