Answer:

86.3m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height  = 380m

Unknown:

Final velocity  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use one of the kinematic equations.

   V²   = U²  + 2gH

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity  = 0m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity

H is the height

           V²   = 0²  +    (2 x 9.8 x 380) = 7448

          V = 86.3m/s

How Many Significant Digits are in 0.0217​
Bumek [7]

Answer:

<em>The number 0.0217 has 3 significant digits</em>

Explanation:

<u>Significant Digits </u>

These are digits that contribute to the significance of the number. Some rules apply to discard the non-significant digits like:

  • Leading zeros
  • Trailing zeros (with exceptions)

Our number is 0.0217 has two leading zeros before the 2 because they only occupy space to indicate the order of magnitude of the number. Only the 2,1,7 are significant digits, thus

The number 0.0217 has 3 significant digits

The core of the Sun is Group of answer choices
kap26 [50]

Answer:

2. much hotter and much denser than its surface

Explanation:

We know that the temperature around the center of the Sun is about 1.57×10⁷ K and its density is about 162 g/cm³.

Now, the temperature and the density decrease as one moves outward from the center of the Sun, the temperature at the surface of the sun is about 5×10³ K and the density as an average in the surface is about 1.4 g/cm³.

Therefore the answer is:

2. much hotter and much denser than its surface.  

I hope it helps you!

Have a nice day!

A 50 cm^3 block of iron is removed from an 800 degrees Celsius furnance and immediately dropped into 200 mL of 20 degrees Celsiu
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

 % of water boils away= 12.64 %

Explanation:

given,

volume of block  = 50 cm³ removed from temperature of furnace = 800°C

mass of water = 200 mL = 200 g

temperature of water  = 20° C

the density of iron = 7.874 g/cm³ ,

so the mass of iron(m₁)  = density × volume = 7.874 × 50 g = 393.7 g

the specific heat of iron C₁ = 0.450 J/g⁰C

the specific heat of water Cw= 4.18 J/g⁰C

latent heat of vaporization of water is L_v = 2260 k J/kg = 2260 J/g

loss of heat from iron is equal to the gain of heat for the water

m_1\times C_1\times \Delta T = M\times C_w\times \Delta T + m_2\times L_v

393.7\times 0.45\times (800-100) = 200\times 4.18\times(100-20) + m_2\times 2260

m₂ = 25.28 g

25.28 water will be vaporized

% of water boils away =\dfrac{25.28}{200}\times 100

 % of water boils away= 12.64 %

As an aid in working this problem, consult Interactive Solution 3.41. A soccer player kicks the ball toward a goal that is 20.0
alekssr [168]

Answer:

V=14.9 m/s

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we are going to use the formulas of parabolic motion.

The velocity X-component of the ball is given by:

Vx=V*cos(\alpha)\\Vx=15.7*cos(31^o)=13.5m/s

The motion on the X axis is a constant velocity motion so:

t=\frac{d}{Vx}\\t=\frac{20.0}{13.5}=1.48s

The whole trajectory of the ball takes 1.48 seconds

We know that:

Vy=Voy+(a)*t\\Vy=15.7*sin(31^o)+(-9.8)*(1.48)=-6.42m/s

Knowing the X and Y components of the velocity, we can calculate its magnitude by:

V=\sqrt{Vx^2+Vy^2} \\V=\sqrt{(13.5)^2+(-6.42)^2}=14.9m/s
