\text{Given that,}\\\\\text{Height, h = 17 m}\\\\\\\text{We know that,}\\\\h = v_0t + \dfrac 12  gt^2\\\\\implies h = \dfrac 12 gt^2\\\\\implies t^2 = \dfrac{2h}g\\\\\implies t =\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}g} = \sqrt{\dfrac{2(17)}{9.81}} = 1.87 ~ \text{sec}

A swimmer swims 110 m toward the shore in 72 s. What is the swimmers velocity in neters per second?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

1.53 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity is given in meters per second, so if it takes the swimmer 72 second to swim 110 meters:

m/s = 110 meters / 72 seconds = 1.527 or 1.53 m/s

Which of the following frequencies falls in the range of RF waves used by commercial radio broadcasting stations?
erma4kov [3.2K]

A).  600,000 Hz  or  600 KHz
Yes.  Commercial broadcasters operate here.
This is the '600' on your AM radio dial.

B).  60 Hz
No.  In principle, this frequency might be used for communication or
commercial broadcasting, but it suffers from two inconvenient truths:
-- An efficient antenna for 60 Hz ... either transmitting or receiving ...
needs to be almost 780 miles long.
-- This is the frequency of the electric power utility in the US and
Canada, so every outlet, wire, cable, lamp cord, and electric line
on a pole RADIATES a little bit of signal at this frequency.  That's
an awful lot of interference.

C).  6,000,000 Hz  or  6 MHz
There's a lot of broadcasting activity here, but it's not commercial
music, news, and sports into local homes and cars. 
It's foreign short-wave broadcast, bringing news, propaganda, and
culture from one country to another.  Pretty interesting to browse.

D).  6,000 Hz  or  6 KHz.
No.  Not used for communication, for an interesting reason:
This frequency is smack in the middle of the human hearing range.
So if it were used for communication ... with high-power transmitters
here and there ... then you wouldn't hear it in the air.  But wherever
wires were being used to carry sound ... your stereo's speaker wires,
wires from your player to your ear-buds, wires to the telephones in
your house etc ... the wires would act as antennas, picking up 
broadcasts at 6 KHz, and the broadcasts would get into everything.
Not a smart plan.

A friend claims that throwing a baseball up towards the school roof illustrates gravitational potential energy transforming into
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The Statement is wrong because the reverse is the case as it is the  kinetic energy that is being transformed to gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

As your friend throws  the baseball into the air the ball gains an initial velocity (u) and this makes the Kinetic energy to be equal to

                    KE = \frac{1}{2} mu^2

Here  m is the mass of the baseball

       Now as this ball moves further upward the that velocity it gained reduce due to the gravitational force and this in turn reduces the kinetic energy of the ball and this kinetic energy lost is being converted to gravitational potential energy which is mathematically represented as (m×g×h)

as energy can not be destroyed but converted to a different form according to the first law of thermodynamics

Looking a the formula for gravitational potential energy we see that the higher the ball goes the grater the gravitational potential energy.
