Answer:

Pro athletes are professional athletes, they are professional in their field. They are not paid too much in my thoughts.

Explanation:

I do not believe that professional athletes are paid too much or over paid. These group of athletes have become professionals in their fields after many years of training, they are highly talented with extra ordinary physical abilities. More so, fans love to watch them play and pay to watch them because they enjoy them. They are get sponsors due to the great crowd they attract.

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1. 0.45 s.

2. 4.41 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 1 m

Time (t) =?

Velocity (v) =?

1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.

Height (h) = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.8

t² = 1/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1/4.9)

t = 0.45 s.

Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.

2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 0.45 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)

v = 0 + 4.41

v = 4.41 m/s

Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s

How does an ice cube melt when you hold it in your hand?

dezoksy [38]

The heat from your hand causes the ice molecules to heat up and become more active. This lowers the stability of the ice cube compound causing it to melt.

What was the result of the Mexican army's victory over the Texan garrison at the Alamo?

sasho [114]

The result of the Mexican victory was that fallen defenders became heroes to the cause of Texan independence.<span> The Battle of the Alamo took place between February 23 and March 6, 1836 and became the central episode of the Texas Revolution . After this thirteen-day battle, the Mexican troops of General President Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna began an attack on San Antonio de Bexar, the current San Antonio in Texas. The Battle of the Alamo fought the army of Mexico against a group of Texan rebels, mostly American settlers. More than four thousand men from Santa Ana stood in front of the Alamo Fort , the last stronghold of the rebels, which barely reached 187. The Alamo was not a fortress prepared to withstand a siege. It is believed that all the rebels of the Alamo died in the siege, but Santa Anna came to lose up to about 900 men during the days that lasted the fight. However, the worst result for Santa Ana was precisely the resistance that the Texan rebels had in the Alamo, which fostered the fighting spirit of the Texans. A few days later, on March 14, 1836, Texas became independent from Mexico and a month later, Santa Ana was imprisoned.</span>

Tom [10]

Answer:

Radio waves have longer wavelength

Explanation:

Radio wave is an electromagnetic frequency that has the ability to travel through long distance. They have frequencies shuttling been the range of 10^4 hz and a frequency of 10^12 hz

Light wave is also called visible light. This is because it is visible to the naked eye, despite it being in the electromagnetic spectrum. It's frequency is usually between 4*10^-7 hz and a frequency of 7*10^-7 hz.

As can be seen from both, the radio waves length are quite far stronger than that of the light waves.

Question 9 In an RC series circuit, ε = 12.0 V, R = 1.07 MΩ, and C = 2.66 µF. (a) Calculate the time constant. (b) Find the maxi

meriva

Answer:

a.) τ = 2.85 s b.) Q = 3.19 * 10^-5 C c.) t = 1.691 s

Explanation:

So we are told that it is a RC circuit. We are told $Q = C V [1 - e^(-t/RC)]$ = 12.0 V, R = 1.07 MΩ and C = 2.66 µF.

a.) The time constant for RC circuit, τ = RC. Substituting our known values we get:

τ = RC where R = (1.07 * 10 ^ 6)Ω and C = (2.66 * 10 ^ -6) F

τ = (1.07 * 10 ^ 6)Ω * (2.66 * 10 ^ -6) F = 2.8462 s ≈ 2.85 s

τ = 2.85 s

b.) The relationship between capacitance, potential, charge is given:

$Q = CV[1-e^{-t/RC} ]$

The capacitor is fully charge when t approaches infinity, therefore:

$Q = \lim_{t \to \infty} a_n CV[1-e^{-t/RC} ]$

When t approaches infinity, the term e becomes very small (e^-∞ = 0), therefore we can simplify the equation and plug in our values

$Q = (2.66*10^{-6}) F * (12.0)V *[1 - 0] = 3.192 * 10^{-5}$

Q = 3.19 * 10^-5 C

c.) Using the same equation as before, we can substitute Q in and solve for Q:

$(14.3 * 10 ^ 6) C = (2.66*10^{-6})F *(12.0)V*[1-e^{-t/(2.85s)}]\\0.552 = e^{-t/(2.85s)}\\t = -1 * 2.85 * ln(0.552) \\t = 1.69120678 s$

t = 1.691 s

Hope this helps! I'm not sure what the units you want, so convert to the desired units.
