When some one balance skate board on pipe the potential energy is responsible to make it slide beacause of m mass and g gravity and height thus the skate boarder concieves mgh potential energy and moving on pipe with balancing himself using kinetic enrgy ie;1/2 mv^2 and thus gauning speed ..for illustrating well there is a another example the two wheeeler gets balanced while moving instead of standing idle or stationary ie; kinetic energy is responsible for balancing

A body falls from the top of the tower and during the last second of its fall it fall through 23mvfind height of tower.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

39.7 m

Explanation:

First, we conside only the last second of fall of the body. We can apply the following suvat equation:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where, taking downward as positive direction:

s = 23 m is the displacement of the body

t = 1 s is the time interval considered

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

u is the velocity of the body at the beginning of that second

Solving for u, we find:

$ut=s-\frac{1}{2}at^2\\u=\frac{s}{t}-\frac{1}{2}at=\frac{23}{1}-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(1)=18.1 m/s$

Now we can call this velocity that we found v,

v = 18 m/s

And we can now consider the first part of the fall, where we can apply the following suvat equation:

$v^2-u^2 = 2as'$

where

v = 18 m/s

u = 0 (the body falls from rest)

s' is the displacement of the body before the last second

Solving for s',

$s'=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{18.1^2-0}{2(9.8)}=16.7 m$

Therefore, the total heigth of the building is the sum of s and s':

h = s + s' = 23 m + 16.7 m = 39.7 m

Determine the vector perpendicular to the plane of A= 31+ 6j - 2k and B=4i-j +3k

Sliva [168]

The vector perpendicular to the plane of A = 3i+ 6j - 2k and B = 4i-j +3k is 16 i - 17 j - 27 k

Let r be the vector perpendicular to A and B,

r = A * B

A = 3i + 6j - 2k

B = 4i - j + 3k

a1 = 3

a2 = 6

a3 = - 2

b1 = 4

b2 = - 1

b3 = 3

a * b = ( a2 b3 - b2 a3 ) i + ( a3 b1 - b3 a1 ) j + ( a1 b2 - b1 a2 ) k

a * b = [ ( 6 * 3 ) - ( - 1 * - 2 ) ] i + [ ( - 2 * 4 ) - ( 3 * 3 ) ] j + [ ( 3 * - 1 ) - ( 4 * 6 ) ] k

a * b = 16 i - 17 j - 27 k

The perpendicular vector, r = 16 i - 17 j - 27 k

Therefore, the vector perpendicular to the plane of A = 3i + 6j - 2k and B = 4i - j + 3k is 16 i - 17 j - 27 k

A rock is projected upward from the surface of the moon, at time t = 0.0 s, w a velocity of 30 m/s. The acceleration due to grav

Vinvika [58]

<h2>Answer: 277.777 m</h2>

Explanation:

The situation described here is parabolic movement. However, as we are told that the rock was<u> projected upward from the surface</u>, we will only use the equations related to the Y axis.

In this sense, the movement equations in the Y axis are:

$y-y_{o}=V_{o}.t+\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}$ (1)

$V=V_{o}-g.t$ (2)

Where:

$y$ is the rock's final position

$y_{o}=0$ is the rock's initial position

$V_{o}=30\frac{m}{s}$ is the rock's initial velocity

$V$ is the final velocity

$t$ is the time the parabolic movement lasts

$g=1.62\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ is the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the moon

As we know $y_{o}=0$ , equation (2) is rewritten as:

$y=V_{o}.t+\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}$ (3)

On the other hand, the maximum height is accomplished when $V=0$ :

$V=V_{o}-g.t=0$ (4)

$V_{o}-g.t=0$

$V_{o}=g.t$ (5)

Finding $t$ :

$t=\frac{V_{o}}{g}$ (6)

Substituting (6) in (3):

$y=V_{o}(\frac{V_{o}}{g})+\frac{1}{2}g(\frac{V_{o}}{g})^{2}$ (7)

$y_{max}=\frac{{V_{o}}^{2}}{2g}$ (8) Now we can calculate the maximum height of the rock

$y_{max}=\frac{{(30m/s)}^{2}}{(2)(1.62m/s^{2})}$ (9)

Finally:

$y_{max}=277.777m$

What is an easy way to balance chemical equations?

Lorico [155]

write out what you have on both sides, then just use basic multiplication to try and even out both sides. I can help if you need me to balance some for you!!
