An object is dropped from 26 feet below the tip of the pinnacle atop a 702 ft tall building. The height h of the object after t

seconds is given by the equation h=-16t^2+676. Find how many seconds pass before the object reaches the ground.

Answer:

6.5 seconds.

Explanation:

Given: h=-16t²+679

When the object reaches the ground, h=0.

∴ 0=-16t²+679

collecting like terms,

⇒ 16t²=679

Dividing both side of the equation by the coefficient of t² i.e 16

⇒ 16t²/16 = 679/16

⇒ t² = 42.25

taking the square root of both side of the equation.

⇒ √t² =√42.25

⇒ t = 6.5 seconds.

Calculate the force of gravity on the 0.60-kg mass if it were 1.3×107 m above Earth's surface (that is, if it were three Earth r
KIM [24]
The force of gravity between two objects is given by:
F=G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is their separation

In this problem, the mass of the object is m_1=0.60 kg, while the Earth's mass is m_2=5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg. Their separation is r=1.3 \cdot 10^7 m, therefore the gravitational force exerted on the object is
F=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11}m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}) \frac{(0.60 kg)(5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg)}{(1.3 \cdot 10^7 m)^2}=1.4 N

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}\ C

1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

1.6351501669\times 10^{-9}\ C

Explanation:

r = Radius

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

Electric field is given by

E=-\dfrac{kq}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow q=-\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow q=-\dfrac{1610\times 0.1^2}{8.99\times 10^9}\\\Rightarrow q=-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

The charge is -1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

Q+q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}-q\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{120\times 0.35^2}{8.99\times 10^9}-(-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9})\\\Rightarrow Q=3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}\ C

The charge is 3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}\ C

The charge inside will have the polarity changed

q=+1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

Outside the charge will be

3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\\ =1.6351501669\times 10^{-9}\ C

Which of the following is NOT one of the four elements of emotion?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Attention

Explanation:

Hello there, fellow peer! The answer to question is attention. Let's say someone is the control. The behavioral expression is an element of expression, so the control will feel emotions. Subjective Experience is when someone felt the way you feel and they are trying to help you. That is a type of emotion which can lead to empathy for you. This is also not the answer. Physiological Arousal is also not the answer because this is when you can feel what someone else is feeling and you try to give them therapy.

Using the process of elimination, our answer is therefore attention.

Which of the following explains why international travelers need to use special adapters when plugging a device designed to oper
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The answer is: The increased voltage causes an increase in power usage, and the device will over-heat.

Explanation:

First, we must consider the variables of the electrical system that will allow us to respond. In this case, power, current and voltage, which are related by

P=VI

Where P=Power, V=Voltage, I=Current.

In the equation it can be observed that power is directly proportional to the system voltage. Thus, if the voltage increases as in this case, the power will also increase, which overheats the device and can cause damage to it.
