It is possible to conclude from this that the balloon is an INSULATOR. It is because the balloon tends to stay any excess of charges.

<h3>What is an insulator?</h3>

An insulator is any material and/or substance capable of staying any excess of charges immobile in a place.

The insulator acts to immobilize any excess of charge added to the insulating substance and/or material, thereby remaining indefinitely in a given place.

In consequence, if a given charge is transferred to an insulator, it will remain at its initial charging location.

A distracted driver is driving towards a turn where the edge of the road leads into a 75.0 m cliff. The velocity of the vehicle
Vlada [557]

As long as the car is on the road, it moves with a constant speed of 80km/h.

As soon as the car starts to fall down the cliff, it follows a parabolic motion. It means that it still moves with constant speed along the x axis, but it also starts to move along the y axis, with constant acceleration (i.e. the acceleration due to gravity).

The good thing about parabolic motions is that the two motions along the x and y axes are completely separable.

So, first of all, we need to know how long it takes for an object to fall for 75m. The equation of a constantly accelerated motion is

s=s_0+v_0t+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Where s_0 is the initial position, v_0 is the initial speed, and a is the constant rate of acceleration. In our case, we start from an initial height of 75m, an initial (vertical!) speed of zero, and our acceleration is -g. So, our equation becomes

s=75-\dfrac{g}{2}t^2

And we want to solve for the time when s=0 (i.e. we want to know how long will it take for the object to reach the ground). We have

0=75-\dfrac{g}{2}t^2 \iff 75=\dfrac{g}{2}t^2 \iff \dfrac{2\cdot75}{g}=t^2 \iff t=\sqrt{\dfrac{150}{g}}

(I'm discarding the negative solution because it wouldn't make sense)

Now that we've used the vertical motion to find out the falling time, we can go back to the horizontal motion. We know that the car moves for a certain amount of time at a certain speed. So, we simply have to plug our values in the s=vt equation, to get

s=80\sqrt\dfrac{150}{g}}

This is how far from the base of the cliff the vehicle lands.

A tightrope walker wants to know the tension used to support the rope that is suspended between two poles. The rope is 18 m long
Alla [95]

Answer:

T = 29.6 N

Explanation:

length of the rope is

L = 18 m

mass of the rope is

m = 12 kg

now we have

mass per unit length of the rope is given as

[te]\lambda = \frac{12 kg}{18 m}[/tex]

now time taken by wave to reach from end to other

t = \frac{L}{v}

2.7 s = \frac{18}{v}

v = 6.67 m/s

now we have

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\lambda}}

6.67 = \sqrt{\frac{T}{0.67}}

so we will have

T = 29.6 N

Which type of earthquake waves are responsible for most of the damage caused by an earthquake? Why?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Surface waves travel along the surface. There are two types of body waves: P-waves travel fastest and through solids, liquids, and gases; S-waves only travel through solids. Surface waves are the slowest, but they do the most damage in an earthquake.

What is sound wave and examples
Nezavi [6.7K]

<em>★</em><em> </em><em>«</em><em> </em><em><u>what is sound wave and examples</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em>»</em><em> </em><em>★</em>

  • <em>A sound wave is the pattern of disturbance caused by the movement of energy traveling through a medium (such as air, water, or any other liquid or solid matter) as it propagates away from the source of the sound. The source is some object that causes a vibration, such as a ringing telephone, or a person's vocal chords.</em>

You are travelling by skateboard at 3.0 m/s and start to accelerate. If you
vovangra [49]

Answer: 8m/s

Explanation:

Vs= 3 m/s

Vf=?

a=0.5m/s²

t=10s

-----------

a=Vf-Vs/t

at=Vf-Vs

0.5*10s=Vf-Vs

5m/s=Vf-3m/s

5m/s+3m/s=Vf

Vf=8m/s
