yes it matters because if it's not sharp it would take all day

Answer:

an axe is a type of machine called a wedge. it does matter how sharp your axe is. if your axe is not sharp then you will have a harder time cutting wood.

A rock is thrown horizontally from a high building at 33.8 m/s. What is the magnitude of its velocity 4.25 s later?

<h2>Answer:53.63 $ms^{-2}$ </h2>

Explanation:

The equations of motion used in this question is $v=u+at$

When a object is projected horizontally from a sufficiently height,the x-component of acceleration remains zero because there is no force that drags the object in x direction.

But,due to gravity,the object accelerates downward at a rate of $9.8ms^{-2}$ .

In X-Direction,

Given that initial velocity= $u_{x}$ = $33.8ms^{-1}$

Using $v=u+at$ ,

$v_{x}=33.8+(0)4.25=33.8ms^{-1}$

In Y-Direction,

Given that initial velocity= $u_{x}$ = $0ms^{-1}$

Using $v=u+at$ ,

$v_{y}=0+(9.8)4.25=41.65ms^{-1}$

$v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{y}^{2}}$

$v=\sqrt{1142.44+1734.72}=\sqrt{2877.163}=53.63ms^{-1}$

The rectangular plates in a parallel-plate capacitor are 0.063 m x 5.4 m. A distance of 3.5 x 10^-5m separate the plates. The pl

The capacitance of the capacitor is $1.8\cdot 10^{-9}F$

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by the equation

$C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}$

where

k is the dielectric constant of the medium

$\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m$ is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

For the capacitor in this problem, we have:

k = 2.1 is the dielectric constant

$d=3.5\cdot 10^{-5}m$ is the separation between the plates

$A=0.063m \cdot 0.054m = 0.0034 m^2$ (I assumed that 5.4 m is a typo, since it is not a realistic size for the side of the plate)

Therefore, the capacitance of the capacitor is

$C=\frac{(2.1)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.0034)}{3.5\cdot 10^{-5}}=1.8\cdot 10^{-9}F$
