Answer:

12.74 ms^-1 download

Explanation:

v=28.2, a=9.81

start from rest u=0

v=u+at=0+(9.81)t=28.2

t=2.875...

it reach 1.4 second before hitting the ground:

t=1.4, u=0, a=9.81

v=u+at=0+(9.81)(1.4)=12.74

a waterwheel built in Hamah, Syria, has a radius of 20 m . If the tangential velocity at the wheels edge is 7.85 m/s , what is t
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

3.08m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Radius = 20m

Tangential velocity  = 7.85m/s

Unknown:

Centripetal acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration of a body along a circular path.

 it is mathematically given as;

       a  = \frac{v^{2} }{r}  

v is the tangential velocity

r is the radius

      a  = \frac{7.85^{2} }{20}   = 3.08m/s²

Jodi made a list about electric current to help her study for a test. 1) Movement of electrons is continuous in a current. 2) El
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Rate at which current flows is measured in amperes

Explanation:

The rate of flow of electrons constitutes the current. The electrons flow from lower electric potential to higher electric potential. When there is no potential difference then no electron will flow. The direction of the current and the electron are in opposite direction.

The direction of electron from the negative terminal to the positive terminal. The direction of current is from the positive terminal to the negative terminal.The current is measured in ampere.    

The expression for current and the charge is as;

I=\frac{q}{t}

Here, q is the charge, t is the time taken and I is the current.

According to the given problem, Jodi made a list about electric current to help her study for a test. He described that electrons move from areas of low to high electric potential, voltage causes current to flow and movement of electrons is continuous in a current.

But he did error. It should be "rate at which charges flow" instead of rate at which current flow.

Therefore, the option (4) is correct.

The displacement of a wave traveling in the positive x-direction is y(x, t)|= (3.5 cm)cos(2.7x − 92t), where x is in m and t is
zubka84 [21]

Answer

Given,

y(x, t) = (3.5 cm) cos(2.7 x − 92 t)

comparing the given equation with general equation

y(x,t) = A cos(k x - ω t)

 A = 3.5 cm  , k = 2.7 rad/m    , ω = 92 rad/s

we know,

a) ω =2πf

   f = 92/ 2π

   f = 14.64 Hz

b) Wavelength of the wave

 we now, k = 2π/λ

      2π/λ = 2.7

      λ = 2 π/2.7

      λ = 2.33 m

c) Speed of wave

     v = ν λ

     v = 14.64 x 2.33

     v = 34.11 m/s

How do power plants generate electricity?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

electrons are a waste product of bacteria living around plant roots – plants discharge organic matter into the soil, which is broken down by bacteria. It is possible to harvest them using motonless electrodes and turn them into electricity, without affecting the plant’s growth in any way.

Watt-hours is a measure of energy, just like kilowatt-hours. How can you convert this to Joules?
satela [25.4K]

Work with your units:

1 watt-hour = 1 (joule/second) · (hour) = 1 (joule-hour / second)

(1 joule-hour/sec) · (3600 sec/hour) = 3600 joules

So 1 watt-hour = 3,600 joules
