initial velocity=0m/s=u
Final velocity=v=100m/s
Time=t=20s

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{100-0}{20}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{100}{20}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=5m/s^2$

At what height h above the ground does the projectile have a speed of 0.5v?

maw [93]

Answer:

$h=\dfrac{3v^2}{8g}$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the projectile is 0.5 v. Let h is the height above the ground. Using the first equation of motion to find it.

$v=u+at$

$v=u-gt$

Initial speed of the projectile is v and final speed is 0.5 v.

$0.5v=v-gt$

$t=\dfrac{v}{2g}$

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Let h is the height above the ground. Using the second equation of motion as :

$h=vt-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$h=v\dfrac{v}{2g}-\dfrac{1}{2}g(\dfrac{v}{2g})^2$

$h=\dfrac{3v^2}{8g}$

So, the height of the projectile above the ground is $\dfrac{3v^2}{8g}$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

What is one difference between using a solar cell for electricity and using a windmill?

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Solar cell generates DC

Windmill generates AC

Explanation:

Solar cell generates DC from the panel, to use this DC for electricity it has to be passed to an inverter which convert DC to AC.

Windmill generates AC from the wind blades. This type of energy can be used directly with household appliances using AC, or passed to a rectifier to convert it to DC.
