Answer:

A

Explanation:

Given that a stone dropped from the top of a 80m high building strikes the ground at 40 m/s after falling for 4 seconds. The stone's potential energy with respect to the ground is equal to its kinetic energy. (use 9 - 10 m/s)

O at the moment of impact

2 seconds after the stone is released after the stone has fallen 40 m

when the stone is moving at 20 m/s

At the top of the hill, the P.E = mgh

P.E = 10 × 80 × m

P.E = 800m

At the moment of impact, K.E = 1/2mv^2

K.E = 1/2 × 40^2 × m

K.E = 1/2 × 1600 × m

K.E = 800m

Since both P.E and K.E are the same, we can therefore conclude that the stone's potential energy with respect to the ground is equal to its kinetic energy at the moment of impact.

The correct answer is option A.

Consider a series RLC circuit where R = 855 Ω and C = 6.25 μF. However, the inductance L of the inductor is unknown. To find its
sashaice [31]

Answer:

L= 0.059 mH

Explanation:

Given that

R = 855 Ω and C = 6.25 μF

V= 84 V

Frequency

ω = 51900 1/s

We know that

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{LC}}

L=Inductance

C=Capacitance

ω =angular Frequency

ω² L C =1

(51900)² x L x 6.25 x 10⁻⁶ = 1

L= 5.99 x 10⁻⁵ H

L= 0.059 mH

Answer:

Matter is everything that surrounds us. It has mass and occupies a place in space. Matter can be described by measuring the value of its properties; for example: density, color, mass, volume, etc.

al ser homogenea no se puede percibir con la vista pero si se le agrega acido sulfurico la reaccion hara que el hidrogeno y el oxigeno se evaporen dejando unicamente una masa negra de carbono

No, ya que, es una mezcla homogénea, es decir,  sus elementos están muy unidos mas no combinados de manera química, es posible separarlos pero con mucha dificultad, por tanto, es imposible diferenciarlos a simple vista. Se sabe que están distribuidos de manera uniforme, su estado es conocido como solución o disolución, tal como es el caso del azúcar.

A cyclist racing in the keiran is riding at the top of the track at 5m/s. Then he sprints downhill in the sprinting to the finis
kumpel [21]
The cyclist is moving by uniformly accelerated motion, with an initial velocity of v_i=5~m/s and an acceleration of a=9~m/s^2. 
The acceleration is given by
a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{\Delta t}
where v_f is the final velocity and \Delta t is the time between the end and the beginning of the motion, and in our case it is 1.75 s. Therefore, from this relationship we can find the final velocity:
v_f=v_i + a \Delta t=5~m/s+9~m/s^2 \cdot 1.75~s=20.75~m/s
