Answer:
A metalloid is used because it is a semiconductor and can become more conductive when more light shines on it
Explanation:
The material used in a solar panel is a metalloid. It can often become conductive when more light shines on it.
Metalloids have properties that straddles between those of metals and non-metals.
In essence, they can be conductive or not under certain conditions.
The most important property they exhibit is that they can become more conductive when more light shines on them. This way more electrons are produced.
Answer:
The type of medium affects a sound wave as sound travels with the help of the vibration in particles.
Explanation:
As different mediums have different amount and size of particles, for example, the speed of sound is faster through solid than liquid as solids have closely packed particles whereas liquids are loosely packed.
Answer: B
adding force will add accesion
Answer:
a)
Y0 = 0 m
Vy0 = 15 m/s
ay = -9.81 m/s^2
b) 7.71 m
c) 3.06 s
Explanation:
The knowns are that the initial vertical speed (at t = 0 s) is 15 m/s upwards. Also at that time the dolphin is coming out of the water, so its initial position is 0 m. And since we can safely assume this happens in Earth, the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity, which is 9.81 m/s^2 pointing downwards
Y(0) = 0 m
Vy(0) = 15 m/s
ay = -9.81 m/s^2 (negative because it points down)
Since acceleration is constant we can use the equation for uniformly accelerated movement:
Y(t) = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2
To find the highest point we do the first time derivative (this is the speed:
V(t) = Vy0 + a * t
We equate this to zero
0 = Vy0 + a * t
0 = 15 - 9.81 * t
15 = 9.81 * t
t = 0.654 s
At this time it will have a height of:
Y(0.654) = 0 + 15 * 0.654 - 1/2 * 9.81 * 0.654^2 = 7.71 m
The doplhin jumps and falls back into the water, when it falls again it position will be 0 again. So we can equate the position to zero to find how long it was in the air knowing that it started the jump at t = 0s.
0 = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2
0 = 0 + 15 * t - 1/2 * 9.81 t^2
0 = 15 * t - 4.9 * t^2
0 = t * (15 - 4.9 * t)
t1 = 0 This is the moment it jumped into the air
0 = 15 - 4.9 * t2
15 = 4.9 * t2
t2 = 3.06 s This is the moment when it falls again.
3.06 - 0 = 3.06 s
