John accidentally drops his keys off the balcony at his apartment. John's friend Tony just happens to walk by at that moment and

picks up the keys to throw them back up to John. If John is 5.33 meters above the sidewalk where Tony is, and Tony throws at 18 m/s at a 40 degree angle above the horizontal, will the keys make it back to John?

Explanation:

In order to find out if the keys will reach John or not, we can use the formula of projectile motion to find the maximum height reached by the keys:

H = V²Sin²θ/2g

where,

V = Launch Speed = 18 m/s

θ = Launch Angle = 40°

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

H = (18 m/s)²[Sin 40°]²/(2)(9.8 m/s²)

H = 6.83 m

Hence, the maximum height that can be reached by the projectile or the keys is greater than the height of John's Balcony(5.33 m).

Therefore, the keys will make it back to John.

The air in a room has a mass of 50kg and a specific heat of 1,000 J/(kg.C). What is the change in the thermal energy of the air
dem82 [27]
<span>We know the change of thermal energy is proportional to the specific heat of the matter, its mass and the change of temperatures, according the following formula: Q = C*m*(Tf-Ti) where: Q is the heat added or removed (in joules, J) C is the specific heat of the matter, in our case air 1,000 J/(Kg*C) m is the mass, in our case 50 kg of air Tf is final temperature Ti is initial temperature then: Q = 1000 * 50 * (30-20) = 500,000 Joules That means that 500,000 joules need to be added to increase temperature of the room 10 ÂşC (from 20 to 30 ÂşC)</span>

How is it possible for one electrically neutral atom to exert an electrostatic force on other electrically neutral atom?
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Although Atom are electrically neutral. But atom atom is combination of nucleus and electrons. The nucleus of the atom is composed neutron and positively charged protons. On the outside of nucleus at some distance are the electrons which are negatively charged. So, there is difference in position of the two differently charge species. So, this way a electrically neutral atom can exert a electrostatic force on other electrically neutral atom

A circular loop of wire lies in the plane of your screen. An increasing magnetic field (produced by another source) points out o
Rashid [163]

Answer:

clockwise direction

Explanation:

Direction of induced current is found with the help of Lenz's law . According to this law , the direction of induced current is such that it tries to neutralize or oppose the reason which creates this current .

In the given case , magnetic field is towards the viewer of the screen and it is increasing , so the induced current will have to create magnetic field in opposite to it . It means magnetic field will be created towards the screen into it . So the current will be induced in clockwise direction . This current will create magnetic field into the screen which will oppose increasing magnetic field out of screen .
