The local high school is installing new bleachers at the stadium and must also add handrails to meet code. The students know the
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The handrails must be approximately 10.63 meters long

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The height of the bleachers, h = 8 m

The depth of the bleachers, d = 7 m

The length of the hand rails to go along the bleachers from bottom to top is given by Pythagoras' Theorem as follows;

The length of the hand rail = √(d² + h²)

∴ The length of the hand rail = √(7² + 8²) = √113 ≈ 10.63

In order for the handrails to go along the bleachers from top to bottom, they must be approximately 10.63 meters long.

A test charge is placed at a distance of 2.5 × 10-2 meters from a charge of 6.4 × 10-5 coulombs. What is the electric field at t
Novosadov [1.4K]
Using the formula: E = kQ / d² where E is the electric field, Q is the test charge in coulomb, and d is the distance. 

E = kQ / d²

k = 9 x 10^9 N-m²/C²
Q = 6.4 x 10^-5 C
d = 2.5 x 10^-2 m

Substituting the given values to the equation, we have:
E = (9 x 10^9)(6.4 x 10^-5) / (2.5 x 10^-2) ²

Electric field at the test charge is 921600000 N/C

What is dipersion of light
Sophie [7]

Answer:

The separation of visible light into its different colors is known as dispersion. It was mentioned in the Light and Color unit that each color is characteristic of a distinct wave frequency; and different frequencies of light waves will bend varying amounts upon passage through a prism

A 2.0 µF capacitor is charged through a 50,000 ohm resistor. How long does it take for the capacitor to reach 90% of full charge
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

0.23 s

Explanation:

First of all, let's find the time constant of the circuit:

\tau=RC

where

R=50,000 \Omega is the resistance

C=2.0\mu F=2.0\cdot 10^{-6}F is the capacitance

Substituting,

\tau=(50,000 \Omega)(2.0\cdot 10^{-6}F)=0.1 s

The charge on a charging capacitor is given by

Q(t)=Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau} ) (1)

where

Q_0 is the full charge

we want to find the time t at which the capacitor reaches 90% of the full charge, so the time t at which

Q(t)=0.90 Q_0

Substituting this into eq.(1) we find

0.90 Q_0 = Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau})\\0.90=1-e^{-t/\tau}\\e^{-t/\tau}=1-0.90=0.10\\-\frac{t}{\tau}=ln(0.10)\\t=-\tau ln(0.10)=(0.1 s)ln(0.10)=0.23 s

7. Copper can be coated on the surface of iron but not on silver? why​
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Silver has greater electronegativity (pull on electrons) than copper, so it will be reduced rather than oxidized. Silver ions will plate out on copper metal. Sir the coating of iron with copper surface can be referred as IRON-COPPER PLATING.

Explanation:

Iron is used for the electroplating of so copper because iron falls above copper in the electrochemical series whereas silver will fall off below the copper in electrochemical series that makes it not reliable for the electroplating purpose
