Answer:

At elevated altitudes, any cooking that involves boiling or steaming generally requires compensation for lower temperatures because the boiling point of water is lower at higher altitudes due to the decreased atmospheric pressure.

4. Define resistance and describe what would happen to a light bulb if the voltage increased but the resistance stayed the same.

Arlecino [84]

Current would increase proportionally to voltage. Power dissipation (heating) would increase with the square of the voltage. And resistance means, "the refusal to accept or comply with something"

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) t = 3.81 s

b) vf = 37.4 m/s

Explanation:

Data

height = 71.3 m = 234 feet

t = 0 m/s

vf = ?

vo = 0 m/s

Formula

h = vot + 1/2gt²

vf = vo + gt

Process

h = vot + 1/2gt²

71.3 = 0t + 1/2(9.81)t²

2(71.3) = 9,81t²

t² = 2(71.3)/9.81

t² = 14.53

t = 3.81 s

vf = 0 + (9.81)(3.81)

vf = 37.4 m/s

A body is dropped from the roof of a 20 m high building by how much:

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

t = 2.01 s

Vf = 19.7 m/s

Explanation:

It's know through the International System that the earth's gravity is 9.8 m/s², then we have;

Data:

Height (h) = 20 m
Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) = ?
Final Velocity (Vf) = ?

==================================================================

Time

Use formula:

$\boxed{t=\sqrt{\frac{2*h}{g}}}$

Replace:

$\boxed{t=\sqrt{\frac{2*20m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}}$

Everything inside the root is solved first. So, we solve the multiplication of the numerator:

$\boxed{t=\sqrt{\frac{40m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}}$

It divides:

$\boxed{t=\sqrt{4.08s}}$

The square root is performed:

$\boxed{t=2.01s}$

==================================================================

Final Velocity

use formula:

Vf = g * t

Replace:

Vf = 9.8 m/s² * 2.01 s

Multiply:

Vf = 19.7 m/s

==================================================================
