Hi there!

We can begin by converting cm to m:

4cm = 0.04 m

Use the following equation:

vf² = vi² + 2ad

The final velocity is 0 m/s, so:

0 = vi² + 2ad

vi² = -2(a)d

Plug in given values to solve for the acceleration:

800²/2(0.04) = -a

a = -8,000,000 m/s²

Find the force using the equation:

F = ma

F = (0.02)(-8,000,000) = -160,000 N

A building is 512 m high. What must be the minimum water pressure in a pipe at ground level in order to get water out of a tap i
vivado [14]

Answer:

Pressure =  5 x 10⁶ Pa

Explanation:

Given:

Height of building = 512 m

Find:

Pressure

Computation:

P2 = P1+dgh

P2 = 1 + (1000)(9.8)(512)

P2 = 51.2 atm

Pressure =  5 x 10⁶ Pa

The heating system in Jeff and Tony's new home takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower. What
-BARSIC- [3]

If it takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower, the type of heat transfer is convection heat transfer.

<h3>What is heat transfer by convection?</h3>

Convection is the transfer of heat from one place to another due to the movement of fluid.

During heat transfer by convection, cold air replaces hot risen air.

Thus, if it takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower, the type of heat transfer is convection heat transfer.

Help!!! If anyone could do one of these, i'm confused on how I should write the equation down.
balu736 [363]

F=ma=m(change in velocity/change in time)

Number 1

F=ma

F=55kg(1.1ms^-1/1.6s)=37.8N

Number 2

F=ma

F=0.440kg(10ms^-1/0.02s)=220N

Number 3

F=ma

F=1400kg(15ms^-1/0.73s)=2.88*10^3N or 28,767N

Any questions please feel free to ask.
