Answer: 324.135 kJ

Explanation:

Given

Mass of dropping is m=2250\ kg

The initial height of dropping is h_1=16\ m

The final height of dropping h_2=1.3\ m

Gravitational potential energy is the function of height i.e.

\Rightarrow \text{G.E.}=mgh

Change in Gravitational Energy is

\Rightarrow \Delta \text{G.E.}=mg(h_1-h_2)=2250\times 9.8\times (16-1.3)\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta \text{G.E.}=3,24,135\ J\approx 324.135\ kJ

ASK YOUR TEACHER Red blood cells often can be charged. Two red blood cells are separated by 1.11 m and have an attractive electr
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

q2 = -1.61*10^-5 C.

Explanation:

It was given that,

F = 0.985N

q1 = +8.40 X10-6 C

q2 = ?

r = 1.11 m

k = 9 x 10^9 (standard)

It generally follows that, if force is attractive, charge will be negative.

force, F = kq1q2/r^2

0.985 = 9*10^9*8.40*10^-6*q2/1.11^2

75600q2 = 0.985*1.11^2

75600q2 = 1.2136

q2 = 1.2136/75600 = 1.60529

q2 = -1.61*10^-5 C.

A student throws a rock horizontally off a 5.0 m tall building. The rock's initial speed is 6.0 m/s. How long will it take the r
Archy [21]

Answer:

The time taken by the rock to reach the ground is 0.569 seconds.

Explanation:

Given that,

A student throws a rock horizontally off a 5.0 m tall building, s = 5 m

The initial speed of the rock, u = 6 m/s

We need to find the time taken by the rock to reach the ground. Using second equation of motion to find it. We get :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\5=6t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8t^2\\\\t=0.569\ seconds

So, the time taken by the rock to reach the ground is 0.569 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

What makes the eardrum vibrate?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The sound waves are gathered by the outer ear and sent down the ear canal to the eardrum. The sound waves cause the eardrum to vibrate, which sets the three tiny bones in the middle ear into motion. The motion of the three bones causes the fluid in the inner ear, or cochlea, to move.

~+lil more info+~

The sound waves go through the ear canal into the middle ear, which includes the eardrum (a thin layer of tissue) and three tiny bones called ossicles. The sound causes the eardrum to vibrate. The ossicles amplify these vibrations and carry them to the inner ear.
