A rock with a mass of 0.3 kg falls from the top of a cliff. If it takes the rock 2.5 s to reach the ground, what was the impulse

on the rock during the fall?

Impulse=force x time
force=mass x acceleration due to gravity
force=
300 \times 10 = 3000
impulse =3000 x 2.5= ( sorry i don't have a calculator right now so you must calculate this yourself)
I converted from kg to g because it is the standard.
Hope this helps you.

you can produce a sound by plucking a string or by blowing in a pipe. how are these two ways different?​
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

a differenceis that the string needs force to be used. without something pulling on it then it wont make the noise. meanwhile the pipe only needs air to be blow Wich can be caused naturally or intentionally

A 30-m-long rocket train car is traveling from Los Angeles to New York at 0.5c when a light at the center of the car flashes. Wh
Novosadov [1.4K]

Given that,

Distance =30 m

speed = 0.5c

(A). We need to find the bell and siren simultaneous events for a passenger seated in the car

According to given data

The distance travelled by the light to reach either side of the rocket  train car is same.

So, The two events are simultaneous and the bell and siren are the simultaneous events for a passenger seated in the car.

(B). We need to calculate time interval between the events

Using formula of time dilation

\Delta t=\dfrac{\Delta t'}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}.....(I)

Where, \delta t' = proper time

\delta t = time interval between the events

The time interval between the events measured in a reference frame

The proper time in this case is

\Delta t'=\Delta t_{1}-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}

For the second interval,

Put the value of \Delta t' in the equation (I)

\Delta t_{2}=\dfrac{\Delta t_{1}-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}

Put the value in the equation

\Delta t_{2} = \dfrac{0-\dfrac{0.5c\times30}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{0.5^2c^2}{c^2}}}

\Delta t_{2}=\dfrac{-15}{3\times10^{8}\sqrt{1-0.25}}

\Delta t_{2}=-5.77\times10^{8}\ s

Negative sign shows the siren rings before the bell ring.

Hence, (A). Yes, the bell and siren are simultaneous events.

(B). The siren sounds before the bell rings.

A solar flare is a sudden, rapid, and intense change in the brightness of the sun. Which of these is most
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

electronic communications may be disrupted

Explanation:

Solar Flares: They occur when the magnetic field lines carrying charged particle entangle and reorganize over the photosphere of the Sun. In these flares charged particles leave the surface of the Sun to travel outwards.

If these flares are directed towards Earth, they will interact with anything related to electricity and magnetism. Out of the given options third option is correct as the electronic communication will be disrupted. If the flares are strong a complete power blackout may occur and that would disrupt all the communication channel and power transmission. Such events have occurred in the past as well.

Why forces are balanced and unbalanced? need help with this the lesson is tommorow
Naya [18.7K]
"Balanced" means that if there's something pulling one way, then there's also
something else pulling the other way. 

-- If there's a kid sitting on one end of a see-saw, and another one with the
same weight sitting on the other end, then the see-saw is balanced, and
neither end goes up or down.  It's just as if there's nobody sitting on it.

-- If there's a tug-of-war going on, and there are 300 freshmen pulling on one
end of a rope, and another 300 freshmen pulling in the opposite direction on
the other end of the rope, then the hanky hanging from the middle of the rope
doesn't move.  The pulls on the rope are balanced, and it's just as if nobody
is pulling on it at all.

-- If a lady in the supermarket is pushing her shopping cart up the aisle, and her
two little kids are in front of the cart pushing it in the other direction, backwards,
toward her.  If the kids are strong enough, then the forces on the cart can be
balanced. Then the cart doesn't move at all, and it's just as if nobody is pushing
on it at all.

From these examples, you can see a few things:

-- There's no such thing as "a balanced force" or "an unbalanced force".
It's a <em><u>group</u> of forces</em> that is either balanced or unbalanced.

-- The group of forces is balanced if their strengths and directions are
just right so that each force is canceled out by one or more of the others.

-- When the group of forces on an object is balanced, then the effect on the
object is just as if there were no force on it at all.

A very long straight current-carrying wire produces a magnetic field of 25 µT at a distance d from the wire. How far will the ma
daser333 [38]

The magnetic field strength of a very long current-carrying wire is proportional to the inverse of the distance from the wire. The farther you go from the wire, the weaker the magnetic field becomes.

B ∝ 1/d

B = magnetic field strength, d = distance from wire

Calculate the scaling factor for d required to change B from 25μT to 2.8μT:

2.8μT/25μT = 1/k

k = 8.9

You must go to a distance of 8.9d to observe a magnetic field strength of 2.8μT
