You shake a bottle of soda and take off the cap. If the soda shoots out of the

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

A. 11.5 m

Explanation:

Given,

The initial velocity of the soda cap, u = 15 m/s

The soda bottle cap is projected vertically upwards,

Hence, the angle formed with the ground, Ф = 90°

The maximum height of the projectile is given by the formula,

$h_{max} =\frac{u^{2}sin^{2}\phi}{2g}$

Substituting the given values in the above equation

$h_{max} =\frac{15^{2}sin^{2}90}{2X9.8}$

= 11.5 m

Hence, the maximum height of the cap is h = 11.5 m

Ocean waves of wavelength 26 m are moving directly toward a concrete barrier wall at 4.0 m/s . The waves reflect from the wall,

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

a) the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

wavelength λ = 26 m

velocity v = 4.0 m/s

a) How far from the wall is she?

Now, The first antinode is formed at a distance λ/2 from the wall, since the separation distance between the person and wall is;

x = λ/2

we substitute

x = 26 m / 2

x = 13 m

Therefore, the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) What is the period of her up-and-down motion?

we know that the relationship between frequency, wavelength and wave speed is;

v = fλ

hence, f = v/λ

we also know that frequency is expressed as the reciprocal of the time period;

f = 1/T

Hence

1/T = v/λ

solve for T

Tv = λ

T = λ/v

we substitute

T = 26 m / 4 m/s

T = 6.5 s

Therefore, the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s

Two bodies fall freely from different heights and reach the ground simultaneously. The time of descent for the first body is 1s

jok3333 [9.3K]

The initial height of the first body is given by:
$h_1 = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$
where
g is the gravitational acceleration
t is the time it takes for the body to reach the ground
Substituting t=1 s, we find
$h_1 = \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(1 s)^2=4.9 m$

The second body takes takes t=2 s to reach the ground, so it was located at an initial height of
$h_2 = \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(2 s)^2=19.6 m$

The second body started its fall 1 second before the first body, therefore when the second body started its fall, the first body was located at its initial height, i.e. at 4.9 m from the ground.

Solar energy is a clean, renewable energy source. It is expensive to build a solar plant, but there is no fuel cost only mainten

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Energy production requires the setting up of a complete interconnected chain from generation of energy from the root source of the energy to the storage of the generated energy and the eventual utilization of the energy when required

Solar energy, indirectly, continues to be the main source of energy, however, the direct use of solar energy to power the systems we use in our everyday life, require the development of technologies, such as high efficiency solar cells, means of energy storage, and compatible efficient energy usage which are industrial areas that are seeing good progress but in which the current developed equipment are expensive to produce, and due to their efficiency, are undergoing further research and development

Therefore, due to the continuous increasing improvement in solar technology which can observed, the use of the produced energy through solar is evolving, and therefore, will continue to play a continuously increasing but lower role compared to other sources of energy which have been developed to satisfactory level that can drive an industry, considering the financial investment involved

Two balloons are charged with an identical quantity and type of charge: -6.25 x 10-6 C. They are held apart at a separation dist

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The electric force between them is 878.9 N

Explanation:

Given:

Identical charge $q = -6.25 \times 10^{-6}$ C

Separation between two charges $r = 0.02$ m

For finding the electrical force,

According to the coulomb's law

$F = \frac{k q^{2} }{r^{2} }$

Here, force between two balloons are repulsive because both charges are same.

Where $k = 9 \times 10^{9}$

$F = \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times (-6.25 \times 10^{-6} )^{2} }{4 \times 10^{-4} }$

$F = 878.9$ N

Therefore, the electric force between them is 878.9 N
