julia throws a ball vertically upward from the ground with a speed of 5.89m/s. Andrew catches it when it is on its way down at a

height of 1.27m from the ground. After how much time does Andrew catch the ball?

Vo = 5.89 m/s Y = 1.27 m g = 9.81 m/s^2 
Time to height 
Tr = Vo / g Tr = (5.89 m/s) / (9.81 m/s^2) Tr = 0.60 s 
Max height achieved is:
H = Vo^2 / [2g] H = (5.89 )^2 / [ 2 * (9.81) ] H = (34.69) / [19.62] H = 1.77 m 
It falls that distance, minus Andrew's catch distance:
h = H - Y h = (1.77 m) - (1.27 m) h = 0.5 m 
Time to descend is therefore:
Tf = √ { [2h] / g ] Tf = √ { [ 2 * (0.5 m) ] / (9.81 m/s^2) } Tf = √ { [ 1.0 m ] / (9.81 m/s^2) } Tf = √ { 0.102 s^2 } Tf = 0.32 s 
Total time is rise plus fall therefore:
Tt = Tr + Tf Tt = (0.60 s) + (0.32 s) Tt = 0.92 s           (ANSWER)

How much energy (in kW-h) does a 900 Watt stove use in a week if it is used for 1.5 hours each day?
ioda

Answer:

9.45 kWh

Explanation:

Energy = Power × time

E = 900 W × (1.5 h/day × 7 day)

E = 9450 Wh

E = 9.45 kWh

Which of the following will cause an increase in gas pressure in a closed container?
Ludmilka [50]

C. Both A. and B.

Explanation:

Statement A. Reducing the volume is true because of Boyle's law, which states that for a gas at fixed temperature, the pressure p and the volume V are inversely proportional:

pV=const.

Therefore, when the volume V is reduced, the pressure p increases.

Statement B. Adding more gas is also true: in fact, if we add gas into the container, we will have more molecules of the gas hitting the wall of the container. But the pressure of a gas is exactly given by this: by the collision of the molecules against the wall of the container, so the more the molecules of gas, the greater the pressure.

3. A model rocket takes 0.05 seconds to speed up from rest to its maximum velocity of 80 m/s.
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided by the time it took to produce such change. The formula then reads:

a = \frac{change-in-velocity}{time} = \frac{Vf-Vi}{t}

Where Vf is the final velocity of the object, (in our case 80 m/s)

Vi is the initial velocity of the object (in our case 0 m/s because the object was at rest)

and t is the time it took to change from the Vi to the Vf (in our case 0.05 seconds.

Therefore we have:

a = \frac{80 m/s - 0 m/s}{0.05 sec} = 1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Notice that the units of acceleration in the SI system are \frac{m}{s^2} (meters divided square seconds)
