Answer:

Please find attached the Velocity-Time graph, the Displacement-Time graph and the combined Velocity/Displacement-Time graph, created with Microsoft Excel

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial velocity with which the boy throws the rock, u = 12 m/s

The direction in which he throws the rock = Down

The height from which the rock was thrown, h = 20 m

The height at which the river is located = 0 m

The kinematic equation of motion, of the rock can be given as follows;

h = u·t + 1/2·g·t²

Where;

t = The time of motion of the rock

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = The height from which the rock is thrown = 20 m

Substituting the known values into given equation, we get;

20 = 12·t + 1/2·9.8·t² = 12·t + 4.9·t²

4.9·t² + 12·t - 20 = 0

t = (-12 ± √(12² - 4×4.9×(-20)))/(2 × 4.9) = (-12 ± √(242))/(9.8)

t ≈ -3.587 seconds or t ≈ 1.138 seconds

Attached please find the Velocity-Time graph, the Displacement-Time graph and the combined Velocity/Displacement-Time graph, created with Microsoft Excel.

What is elasticity in polymer generally related to?
Andrej [43]
The elasticity of a polymer is primarily due to the structure of the molecule and the cross-linking between strands. Hydrogen bonding is a contributor to the shape of the molecule, but not a major player in terms of elasticity. We would have to answer "false".

If you push any floating object down from equilibrium and release it, it bobs up and down. That looks like an oscillation, so le
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

  F_{y} = ( ρ_fluid g A) y

Explanation:

This exercise can be solved in two parts, the first finding the equilibrium force and the second finding the oscillating force

for the first part, let's write Newton's equilibrium equation

        B₀ - W = 0

        B₀ = W

        ρ_fluid g V_fluid = W

the volume of the fluid is the area of ​​the cube times the height it is submerged

      V_fluid = A y  

For the second part, the body introduces a quantity and below this equilibrium point, the equation is

        B - W = m a

        ρ_fluid g A (y₀ + y) - W = m a

        ρ_fluid g A y + (ρ_fluid g A y₀ -W) = m a

       ρ_fluid g A y + (B₀-W) = ma

the part in parentheses is zero since it is the force when it is in equilibrium

      ρ_fluid g A y = m a

      this equation the net force is

      F_{y} = ( ρ_fluid g A) y

we can see that this force varies linearly the distance and measured from the equilibrium position

Unpolarized light with an average intensity of 845 W/m2 moves along the x-axis when it enters a Polarizer A with a vertical tran
horsena [70]

Answer:

θ = 36.2º

Explanation:

When light passes through a polarizer it becomes polarized and if it then passes through a second polarizer, it must comply with Malus's law

         I = I₀ cos² tea

The non-polarized light between the first polarized of this leaves half the intensity, with vertical polarization

          I₁ = I₀ / 2

          I₁ = 845/2

          I₁ = 422.5 W / m²

In this case, the incident light in the second polarizer has an intensity of I₁ = 422.5 W / m² and the light that passes through the polarizer has a value of

I = 275 W / m ²

      Cos² θ = I / I₁

      Cos θ = √ I / I₁

      Cos θ = √ (275 / 422.5)

     Cos θ = 0.80678

     θ = cos⁻¹ 0.80678

     θ = 36.2º

This is the angle between the two polarizers
