The instant it was dropped, the ball had zero speed.

After falling for 1 second, its speed was 9.8 m/s straight down (gravity).

Its AVERAGE speed for that 1 second was (1/2) (0 + 9.8) = 4.9 m/s.

Falling for 1 second at an average speed of 4.9 m/s, is covered <em>4.9 meters</em>.

ANYTHING you drop does that, if air resistance doesn't hold it back.

To suck lemonade of density 1040 kg/m3 up a straw to a maximum height of 4.94 cm, what minimum gauge pressure (in atmospheres) m
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The minimum gauge pressure is 0.4969 atm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Density = 1040 kg/m³

Height = 4.94 cm

We need to calculate the pressure

Using formula of pressure

P_{g}=\rho g h

Where, \rho=density

h = height

Put the value into the formula

P_{g}=1040\times9.8\times4.94

P_{g}=50348.48\ Pa

Pressure in atmospheres

1\ atm =101.3\ kPa

P_{g}=\dfrac{50348.48}{101325}

P_{g}=0.4969\ atm

Hence, The minimum gauge pressure is 0.4969 atm.

A thermometer initially reading 212F is placed in a room where the temperature is 70F. After 2 minutes the thermometer reads 125
frez [133]

Answer:

91.3°F

Explanation:

Let T be the temperature of the thermometer at any time

T∞ be the temperature of the room = 70°F

T₀ be the initial temperature of the thermometer = 212°F

And m, c, h are all constants from the cooling law relation

From Newton's law of cooling

Rate of Heat loss by the cake = Rate of Heat gain by the environment

- mc (d/dt)(T - T∞) = h (T - T∞)

(d/dt) (T - T∞) = dT/dt (Because T∞ is a constant)

dT/dt = (-h/mc) (T - T∞)

Let (h/mc) be k

dT/(T - T∞) = -kdt

Integrating the left hand side from T₀ to T and the right hand side from 0 to t

In [(T - T∞)/(T₀ - T∞)] = -kt

(T - T∞)/(T₀ - T∞) = e⁻ᵏᵗ

(T - T∞) = (T₀ - T∞)e⁻ᵏᵗ

Inserting the known variables

(T - 70) = (212 - 70)e⁻ᵏᵗ

(T - 70) = 142 e⁻ᵏᵗ

At t = 2 minute, T = 125°F

125 - 70 = 142 e⁻ᵏᵗ

55/142 = e⁻ᵏᵗ

- kt = In (55/142) = In (0.3873)

- k(2) = - 0.9485

k = 0.4742 /min

At time t = 4 mins

kt = 0.4742 × 4 = 1.897

(T - 70) = 142 e⁻ᵏᵗ

e^(-1.897) = 0.15

T - 70 = 142 × 0.15 = 21.3

T = 91.3°F

Precision is how close a series of measurements are to ______
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Accuracy is how close a measured value is to an accepted value. <u>Precision is how close measurements are to one another.</u> To make measurements, you have to evaluate both the accuracy and the precision to get a correct value.
