A 2kg watermelon is dropped from a 4m tall roof a) use the appropriate kinematic equations to determine the instantaneous veloci

ty of the watermelon as its strikes the ground below?

Ivenika [448]3 years ago

Answer:

8.85m/s

Explanation:

The potential energy the watermelon held before dropping is Ep=mgh=2*9.8*4=78.4J.

When it strikes the ground, all of its Ep will transfer into Ek, so 1/2*m*v^2=78.4.

We already knew that m=2, so insert that in, we will get the V^2=78.4 m/s, V=8.85 m/s

A point charge Q at the center of a sphere of radius R produces an electric flux of Φ coming out of the sphere. If the charge r
Dafna1 [17]

Remains the same

Explanation:

According to Gauss's law, the electric flux through a closed surface is proportional to the charge enclosed by the surface. So no matter how big or small we make the surface that encloses the charge, the electric flux remains the same because it only depends on the enclosed charge, not surface area.
