One of the common source is C. Spraying crop fields with pesticides
After spraying the crops with pesticides, the waste will fall and absorbed by the ground.
This will contaminate all substance that exists (nutrients that needed by the plants) in that ground and make that area became toxic for years.

What is the acceleration of a ball that has dropped from a six-story building

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Because the ball is dropped, we are going to assume its initial velocity is 0. With that said, acceleration is essentially the change in the velocity versus the change in time, hence the unit m/s^2, which can be thought of as “meters per second per second.” The only force acting on the ball is gravity.

That being said, you can simply divide the change in velocity by the change in time, giving you an answer of 9.8 m/s^2, which is the value of g. Even if they did not give you a time, the answer would still always be the value of g (that is if the question pertains to earth), as acceleration due to gravity is a constant.

Do cars get better gas mileage with clean air filters? Gas mileage for 10 cars with dirty air filters and clean air filters was

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes.

Proper maintenance of cars or any vehicle will add more life to it and increase the quality performance.

If dirty filters of cars is changed, the gas mileage will increase resulting into a better performance of cars.

Dirty air filters reduces the capacity for it to filter the air going into engine. If air filters are not changed for a longer time it results into misfire or trouble starting.

An aircraft flying at a steady velocity of 70 m/s eastwards at a height of 800 m drops a package of supplies.

iren2701 [21]

The motion of the package can be described as the motion of a projectile,

given that it has an horizontal velocity and it is acted on by gravity.

a) $\vec{v}$ = 70·i

b) The package will reach ground in approximately 12.77 seconds.

c) The speed of the package as it lands is approximately 145.51 m/s.

d) The path of the package based on a stationary frame of reference is parabolic

e) The path of the package as seen from the plane is directly vertical downwards

Reasons:

Velocity of the aircraft = 70 m/s

Direction of flight of the aircraft = Eastward

Height from which the aircraft drops the package, h = 800 m

a) The initial velocity of the package, $\vec{v}$ = 70·i

b) The time it will take the package to reach the ground, t, is given by the formula;

$\displaystyle h = \mathbf{\frac{1}{2} \cdot g \cdot t^2}$

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

Therefore;

$\displaystyle t = \mathbf{\sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot h}{g} }}$

Which gives;

$\displaystyle t = \sqrt{ \frac{2 \times 800}{9.81} } \approx \mathbf{12.77}$

The time it will take the package to reach the ground, t ≈ 12.77 seconds

c) The vertical velocity just before the package reaches the ground, $v_y$ , is given as follows;

$v_y^2$ = 2·g·h

Therefore;

$v_y$ = √(2·g·h)

Which gives;

$v_y$ = √(2 × 9.81 × 800) ≈ 125.28

$v_y$ ≈ 125.28 m/s

Which gives; $\vec{v}$ = 70·i - 125.28·j

Therefore, |v| = √(70² + (-125.28)²) ≈ 143.51

The speed of the package as it lands, |v| ≈ 143.51 m/s

d) The motion of the package that includes both horizontal and vertical motion is a projectile motion.

Therefore;

The path of the package is the path of a projectile, which is a parabolic shape.

e) As seen by someone on the aeroplane, the horizontal velocity will be

zero, therefore, the package will appear as accelerating directly vertical

downwards.

1. *A car is going over the top of a hill whose curvature approximates a circle of radius 200 m. At

Greeley [361]

Answer:

The velocity of motion at which the occupants of the car appear to weigh 20% less than their normal weight is approximately 19.81 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The curvature of the hill, r = 200 m

Due to the velocity, v, the occupants weight = 20% less than the normal weight

The outward force of an object due to centripetal (motion) force is given by the following equation;

$F_c = \dfrac{m \times v^2}{r}$

Where;

r = The radius of curvature of the hill = 200 m

Given that the weight of the occupants, W = m × g, we have;

$F_c = 0.2 \times W = 0.2 \times m \times g$

$\therefore 0.2 \times m \times g = \dfrac{m \times v^2}{r}$

v = √(0.2 × g × r)

By substitution, we have;

v = √(0.2 × 9.81 × 200) ≈ 19.81

The velocity of motion at which the occupants of the car appear to weigh 20% less than their normal weight ≈ 19.81 m/s.
