(a) Let the base of the cliff be the origin, so that the rock's height y at time t is

y = h + (8.19 m/s) t - 1/2 gt²

where h is the height of the cliff. The rock hits the ground when y = 0. Solve for h when t = 2.37 s :

0 = h + (8.19 m/s) (2.37 s) - 1/2 (9.80 m/s²) (2.37 s)²

⇒   h ≈ 8.11 m

(b) If the rock is thrown straight down with the same speed, its height at time t would be

y = 8.11 m - (8.19 m/s) t - 1/2 gt²

Solve for t when y = 0 (use the quadratic formula and ignore the negative solution) :

t ≈ 0.699 s

The circuit below contains an ideal battery, four identical light bulbs, and a switch. The switch is initially open.
Dafna1 [17]

The question is incomplete! circuit figure is attached below and answer and explanation is provided below.

Answer:

Bulb_A = Bulb_B = Bulb_D and Bulb_C = 0.

Explanation:

What happens when switch is open?

When the switch is open Bulb_C is open circuited meaning that there is no way for the current to flow through it. This path offers infinite resistance to the current therefore, current will try to take a least resistance path that is through Bulb_B.

So eventually, when the switch is open the circuit becomes a simple series circuit with path From battery to Bulb_A to Bulb_B to Bulb_D to battery with Bulb_C = 0.

What happens in a series circuit?

We know that in a series circuit, there is only one path for the current to flow therefore, same current will flow through all the series Bulbs and their brightness will be same. Bulb_A = Bulb_B = Bulb_D

Brightness in a series circuit:

We also know know that in a series circuit, resistance gets summed up and voltage across each Bulb gets shared which results in less power dissipation that's why Bulbs connected in series appear dimmer as compared to when they are connected in parallel.

A ball is fixed to the end of a string which is attached to the ceiling at point P. As the drawing shows, the ball is projected
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

a. The balls initial kinetic energy.

Explanation:

As we know that initially speed is given to the ball downwards so that it moved in a circle so then finally reached to point B

Now given that point B is higher than the initial position A from which it is projected

Now by energy conservation we know that

K_i + U_i = K_f + U_f

since final speed is zero so we have

K_i + mgh_a = 0 + mgh_b

h_b = h_a + \frac{K_i}{mg}

so from above equation we can say that since initial kinetic energy is given to the ball so it will be able to reach the point which is higher than its initial position

so correct answer is

a. The balls initial kinetic energy.

A mass is suspended on a vertical spring. Initially, the mass is in equilibrium. Then, it is pulled downward and released. The m
anastassius [24]

Answer:

d. from the equilibrium position to the bottom and then back to the equilibrium.

g. from the top position to the bottom and then back to the top.

h. from the bottom position to the top and then back to the bottom.

Explanation:

It is the case of SHM or Simple Harmonic Motion. Firstly, there is a need to understand the time interval or time period. The standard definition of time period in simple harmonic motion is

"the time period required for the system to complete its one cycle"

Now one have to consider that  the system given above, the motion of mass attached to spring will follow the path of motion from equilibrium point to bottom to equilibrium point to top, then equilibrium point to the bottom and so on.

to choose right answer you must have to consider the option, in which the starting point and ending point of the mass is same. If mass starts from top, the time it will take to reach on top again, will be defined as its time period and so in the case of bottom or equilibrium as starting point. Hence, "d", "g" and "h" are right answers.

Which equipment would help you separate a liquid mixture by distillation?
anzhelika [568]
Distillation is a process in many laboratories for the purpose of separating and/or purifying components of a liquid mixture. The distillation apparatus used consists of three major parts: <span>distillation flask - to heat the mixture and volatilize the components, a condenser to cool the vapors back to liquid state, and a collection vessel.  The apparatus is typically made of glass and therefore subject to breakage.</span> <span>All components of the distillation apparatus should be protected to a stable stand or rack to avoid it from falling over.</span>
