Answer:

Explanation:

impact velocity is

√(18² + 2(-9.8)-51) = 36 m/s

average velocity is (17 + 36)/2 = 26.5 m/s

t = d/v = 51 / 26.5 = 1.9 s

if ground is origin and UP positive

0 = 51 - 17t - ½(9.8)t²

quadratic formula

t = (17 ±√(17² - 4(-4.9)(51))) / (2(-4.9))

t = (17 ± 36) / -9.8

t = - 5.4 s which we ignore as the stone is not thrown yet

t = 19 s

Charge is uniformly distributed around a ring of radius R and the resulting electric field magnitude E is measured along the rin

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

$x=\dfrac{r}{\sqrt2}$

Explanation:

Given that

Radius =r

Electric filed =E

Q=Charge on the ring

The electric filed at distance x given as

$E=K\dfrac{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{3/2}}$

For maximum condition

$\dfrac{dE}{dx}=0$

$E=K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-3/2}}$

$\dfrac{dE}{dx}=K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-3/2}}-\dfrac{3}{2}\times 2\times x\times K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-5/2}}$

For maximum condition

$\dfrac{dE}{dx}=0$

$K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-3/2}}-\dfrac{3}{2}\times 2\times x\times K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-5/2}}=0$

$r^2+x^2-3x^2=0$

$x=\dfrac{r}{\sqrt2}$

At $x=\dfrac{r}{\sqrt2}$ the electric field will be maximum.

Question: Is a flame matter? . Claim: (Write a statement that answers the question)

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. The flame itself is a mixture of gases (vaporized fuel, oxygen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, water vapor, and many other things) and so is matter. The light produced by the flame is energy, not matter.

The increase in height as a tsunami approaches shore is due to

ryzh [129]

Answer:

C. The decrease in speed as the wave approaches shore.

Explanation:

The waves break when approaching the shore because the depth decreases. Thus, the wave travels more slowly and increases its height. There comes a time when the part of the wave on the surface travels faster than the one that travels under water, the ridge destabilizes and falls against the ground.
