Answer:

1.08 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) reached = 1.45 m

Time of flight (T) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the kangaroo to return from the height of 1.45 m. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) = 1.45 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1.45 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1.45 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 1.45/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1.45/4.9)

t = 0.54 s

Note: the time taken to fall from the height(1.45m) is the same as the time taken for the kangaroo to get to the height(1.45 m).

Finally, we shall determine the total time spent by the kangaroo before returning to the earth. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (t) taken to reach the height = 0.54 s

Time of flight (T) =?

T = 2t

T = 2 × 0.54

T = 1.08 s

Therefore, it will take the kangaroo 1.08 s to return to the earth.

Andreyy89

Answer:

-450 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

p₀ = p

0 = (1.5 kg) (1.5 m/s) + (0.005 kg) v

v = -450 m/s

Near the surface of Earth an electric field points radially downward and has a magnitude of approximately 100 N/C. What charge (
pentagon [3]

Answer:

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign-Negative

Explanation:

We are given that

Electric field =E=100NC^{-1} (Radially downward)

Acceleration=0.19 ms^{-2}(Upward)

Mass of charge=3 g=3\times 10^{-3}kg

1kg=1000g

We have to find the magnitude and sign of  charge would have to be placed on a penny .

By newton's second law

\sum F_y=ma

\sum F_y=qE-mg

Substitute the values then we get

qE-mg=ma

Substitute the values then we get

q(100)-3\times 10^{-3}(9.8)=3\times 10^{-3}(0.19)

100q-29.4\times 10^{-3}=0.57\times 10^{-3}

100q=0.57\times 10^{-3}+29.4\times 10^{-3}=29.97\times 10^{-3}

q=\frac{29.97\times 10^{-3}}{100}

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign of charge =Negative

Because electric force acting  in opposite direction of electric field therefore,charge on penny will be negative.

A sample of a gas has a volume of 639 cm3 when the pressure is 75.9 kPa. What is the volume of the gas when the pressure is incr
const2013 [10]

Answer:

388 cm^3

Explanation:

For this problem, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas at constant temperature, the product between pressure and volume remains constant:

pV=const.

which can also be rewritten as

p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2

In our case, we have:

p_1 = 75.9 kPa is the initial pressure

V_1 = 639 cm^3 is the initial volume

p_2 = 125 kPa is the final pressure

Solving for V2, we find the final volume:

v_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{p_2}=\frac{(75.9)(639)}{125}=388 cm^3
