Answer: horizontal speed is 3.9 m/s

Explanation: when ball starts to drop, its vertical speed v0 is zero.

We can calculate dropping time from s = v0t +0.5gt².

Dropping time t= √(2s/g)= √((2·8.0 m)/9.81 m/s²)= 1.277 s

Because ball travels horizontal distance s= 5.0 m

HorizontalSpeed v = s/t = 5.0 m/1.277s= 3,915 m/s

Compare a change in temperature of 1°C to a change of 1°F.
NikAS [45]

Answer:

A change of one degree Celsius = a change of one Kelvin, but a Celsius temperature is never equal to a Kelvin temperature. A change of 1 degree Fahrenheit equals a change of 5/9 = 0.56 degrees Celsius. To convert a Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius, subtract 32 and multiply by 5/9.

A transformer has a primary coil with 106 turns and a secondary coil of 340 turns. The AC voltage across the primary coil has a
UkoKoshka [18]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to transformers, that is to say passive electrical device that transfers electrical energy from one electrical circuit to one or more circuits.

From the mathematical definition we have that the relationship between the voltage of the first coil and the second coil is proportional to the number of loops of the first and second loop, that is:

\frac{V_s}{V_p} = \frac{N_s}{N_p}

Where

V_p =  input voltage on the primary coil.

V_s=input voltage on the secondary coil.

N_p=  number of turns of wire on the primary coil.

N_s = number of turns of wire on the secondary  coil.

Replacing our values we have:

V_p = 128V

N_p = 106

N_s = 340

Replacing,

\frac{V_s}{128} = \frac{340}{106}

V_s = 410.56V

From the same relations of number of turns and the voltage of the first and second coil we also have the relation of electricity and voltage whereby:

V_s I_s = V_p I_p

Where

I_p= Current Primary Coil

I_s = Current secundary Coil

Therefore:

I_s = \frac{V_p I_p}{V_s}

I_s = \frac{(128)(6)}{410.56}

I_s = 1.87 A

Therefore the maximum values for the secondary coil of the voltage is 410.56V and Current is 1.87A

Consider the following True/False statements:
Ainat [17]

Answer:

6) False

7) True

8) False

9) False

10) False

11) True

12) True

13) True

14) True

Explanation:

The spacing between two energy levels in an atom shows the energy difference between them. Clearly, B has a greater value of ∆E compared to A. This implies that the wavelength emitted by B is greater than A while B will emit fewer, more energetic photons.

When atoms jump from lower to higher energy levels, photons are absorbed. The kinetic energy of the incident photon determines the frequency, wavelength and colour of light emitted by the atom.

The energy level to which an atom is excited is determined by the kinetic energy of the incident electron. As the voltage increases, the kinetic energy of the electron increases, the further the atom is from the source of free electrons, the greater the required kinetic energy of free electron. When electrons are excited to higher energy levels, they must return to ground state.

P6: An object of mass m sits on a spring of constant k in an elevator that is accelerating upwards with acceleration a. a) In te
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

(a). The spring compressed is \dfrac{ma+mg}{k}.

(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration = a

mass = m

spring constant = k

(a). We need to calculate the spring compressed

Using balance equation

kx-mg=ma

x=\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}....(I)

The spring compressed is \dfrac{ma+mg}{k}.

(b). If the compression is 2.5 times larger than it is when the mass sits in a still elevator,

The compression is given by

x=2.5\times x_{0}

Here, acceleration is zero

So, x=2.5\times\dfrac{mg}{k}

We need to calculate the acceleration

Put the value of x in equation (I)

2.5\times \dfrac{mg}{k}=\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}

2.5\times\dfrac{mg}{k}=\dfrac{m}{k}(a+g)

a=2.5g-g

a=1.5g

Hence, (a). The spring compressed is \dfrac{ma+mg}{k}.

(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.
