u=0 m/s

h=2.5m

Using kinematic eq:

${v}^{2} - {u}^{2} = 2gh \\ {v}^{2} - {0}^{2} = 2gh \\ v = \sqrt{2gh} \\ v = \sqrt{2 \times 10 \times 2.5} \\ v = \sqrt{50} \\ v = 7.07m/s$

Answer:

82.4 cm

Explanation:

∑F = ma

kx cos θ = ma

x = ma / (k cos θ)

x = (10 kg) (5 m/s²) / (70 N/m cos 30.0°)

x = 0.824 m

x = 82.4 cm

There are 2 concentric cylinders. These cylinders are very long with length L. The inner cylinder has a radius R1 and is a solid

OLga [1]

To get the charge along the inner cylinder, we use Gauss Law
E = d R1/2εo
For the outer cylinder the charge can be calculated using
E = d R2^2/2εoR1
where d is the charge density
Use these two equations to get the charge in between the cylinders and the capacitance between them.

A body of mass 2 kg at O has an initial velocity of 3m/s along OE and it is subjected to a force of 4N perpendicular to OE the d

timofeeve [1]

Perpendicular acceleration:
F = ma
a = 4 / 2 = 2 m/s²

Perpendicular distance:

s = ut + 1/2 at²
s = 0 x 4 + 1/2 x 2 x 4²
s = 16 m

Horizontal distance:
s = ut
= 3 x 4
= 12 m

Total distance = √(12² + 16²)
= 20 m.

A heat engine accepts 200,000 Btu of heat from a source at 1500 R and rejects 100,000 Btu of heat to a sink at 600 R. Calculate

diamong [38]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of energy through the heat transferred and the work done, as well as through the calculation of entropy due to heat and temperatra.

By definition we know that the change in entropy is given by

$\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T}$
