To determine the height of a tall building such as Sears Tower in Chicago, Illinois a ball was dropped from the top of the build
Darya [45]

Answer:

The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 feet.

Explanation:

<h3>We apply the free fall formula to the ball: </h3><h3>y=v_{o} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2}</h3><h3>y: The vertical distance the ball moves at time t  </h3><h3>v_{o}i: Initial speed </h3><h3>g=Gravity acceleration=9.8*(\frac{\frac{1ft}{0.305m} }{s^{2} } )</h3>

Known information

We know that the vertical distance (y) that the ball moves in 9,5s  is equal to height of Sears Tower (h).  

Too we know that the ball is released from rest, then,v_{0}=0

Height of Sears Tower calculation:

We replace  in the equation 1 the data following;

y=h

v_{o} =0

g=32,1\frac{ft}{s^{2} }

t= 9,5s

h=0*9.5+\frac{1}{2} *32.1*9.5^{2}

h=1448.5 ft

Answer: The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 ft

Four solid plastic cylinders all have radius 2.41 cm and length 5.94 cm. Find the charge of each cylinder given the following ad
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Check explanation

Explanation:

QUICK NOTE: THE QUESTION IS NOT COMPLETE. Although it is not, we can make assumptions, since we only need values for the UNIFORM CHARGE DENSITY.

SO, LET US BEGIN;

To solve this question we are to use the equation (1) below;

Charge,Q = uniform charge density,p × Total area of the cylinder,A ------------------------------------------------------------------------(1).

From the question, we are given radius, R to be 2.41 cm and length, L to be 5.94 cm.

Step one: calculate for the total area of the cylinder, A.

Total area of the cylinder, A= area of the top surface + area of the buttom + area of the curved surface of the cylinder.

Hence, total area of the cylinder,A is;

==> πR^2 + πR^2 + 2πRL. -------------------------------------------------------------------------(2).

Then, total area of the cylinder,A is;

==> (L + R)2πR.

Step two: find the charge of each cylinder.

===> For the first cylinder; we have the uniform charge density to be 35 nC/m^2.

Therefore, the combination of equation (1) and (3) gives;

Charge Q= p × (L + R)2πR...----------------------------(4)

Hence, Q= 35 × [(5.94 + 2.41) 2× 3.143 × 5.94].= 10912.615 coulumb.

====> For the second cylinder, we have a uniform charge density of 50 nC/m^2.

Using equation (4), charge,Q= 15,589.45 Coulumb

=====> For THE third cylinder, the uniform charge density is 600, we make use of equation (4);

Charge,Q= 600×311.789.

Charge,Q= 187,073.4 coulumb.

====> For THE fourth cylinder, the uniform charge density is 750 nC/m^2.., we make use of equation (4);

Charge,Q= 233,841.75 coulumb.

There are two possibilities for final stage of extremely massive stars. The first is a
makkiz [27]

Answer: Black hole.

Explanation:

As the massive star "compacts" under its own gravity, it triggers a massive supernova, after this point the remains of the star can become a neutron star, which is a very compact star made primarily, as the name says, of neutrons. The other possibility is a black hole, which is a finite region of space wherein it's interior there is a big concentration of mass, which creates a gravitational field strong enough that there is no particle that can escape it.

PLEASE HELP, LOOK AT PHOTO PLZ!!!
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

a) 17 km

b) 9 km

Explanation:

The distance is the length of the path.

A to C: 5 km

B to C: 4 km

C to B: 4 km

B to C: 4 km

Total distance = 5 km + 4 km + 4 km + 4 km = 17 km

Displacement is the difference between the starting point and ending point.

Displacement = 9 km − 0 km = 9 km
