8 0

Answer:

80 ft/s

Explanation:

Use III equation of motion

V^2 = U^2 + 2g h

Here, U = 0, g = 32 ft/s^2, h = 100 ft

V^2 = 0 + 2 × 32 ×100

V^2 = 6400

V = 80 ft/s

A 500-g lump of clay is dropped onto a 1-kg cart moving at 60 cm/s. The clay is moving downward at 30 cm/s just before l dith t
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The speed of the cart and clay after the collision is 50 cm/s .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of lump , m = 500 g = 0.5 kg .

Velocity of lump , v = 30 cm/s .

Mass of cart , M = 1 kg .

Velocity of cart , V = 60 cm/s .

We know by conservation of momentum :

mv+MV=(m+M)v'

Here , v' is the speed of the cart and clay after the collision .

Putting all value in above equation .

We get :

0.5\times 30+1\times 60=(0.5+1)\times v'\\\\v'=\dfrac{15+60}{1.5}\\\\v'=50\ cm/s

Hence , this is the required solution .

Which scientific development has given rise to the most debate about the ethics of tampering with nature?
Burka [1]

<span>Good Morning!
 
The scientific advance that launched an ethical alert in the scientific community was the possibility of cloning animals, since it presents important questions, especially if such a project is extended to humans.

A standing wave is created on a string of length 1.2 m. If the speed of the wave on the string is 60.0 m/s, what is the fundamen
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Fundamental frequency in the string will be 25 Hz

Explanation:

We have given length of the string L = 1.2 m

Speed of the wave on the string v = 60 m/sec

We have to find the fundamental frequency

Fundamental frequency in the string is equal to f=\frac{v}{2L}, here v is velocity on the string and L is the length of the string

So frequency will be equal to f=\frac{v}{2L}=\frac{60}{2\times 1.2}=25Hz

So fundamental frequency will be 25 Hz

A physicist found that a force of 1.32 N was measured between two charged spheres. The distance between the spheres was 95 cm. C
labwork [276]

The electric force (and the gravitational force too) is inversely proportional
to the square of the distance between the objects involved.

In this question, the distance is increased by a factor of  (1.25/0.95) .

So the electric force will change by the factor of  (0.95/1.25)² .

The new force is

           (1.32 N) · (0.95/1.25)²  =  0.762... newton   (rounded)
