A stone with a mass m is dropped from an airplane that has a horizontal velocity v at a height h above a lake. If air resistance

is neglected, the horizontal distance R from the point on the lake directly below the point of release to the point where the stone strikes the water is given by which formula? A) R = v(2h/g)^2 B) R = (1/2)gt^2 C) R = 2mv squareroot (2h/g) D) R = v squareroot (2h/g) E) None of these is correct.

Answer: Option B. R = (1/2)gt^2

Explanation:

S = R (horizontal distance)

V^2 = 2gS

V^2 = 2gR

R = V^2 / 2g

But V = gt

R = (gt)^2 / 2g

R = (g^2 x t^2) / 2g

R = gt^2 / 2

But t^2 = 2h/g

R = ( g x 2h/g) / 2

R = h

But h = (1/2)gt^2

R = h = (1/2)gt^2

If millikan was measuring the charge on an oil droplet with 3 negatively charged electrons on it, what charge would he have meas
Korvikt [17]
The unit of measurement for charge is Coulomb. Now, every particle of electron contains a charge equal to 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ <span>C. So if there are 3 electrons in the oil droplet, then the total charge would be:

Total charge = 3 electrons(</span>1.602×10⁻¹⁹ C/ electron)
Total charge = 4.806×10⁻¹⁹ C

The time between a lightning flash and the following thunderclap may be used to estimate, in kilometers, how far away a storm is
Kruka [31]

Given Information:  

Elapsed time = t = 6 seconds

Required Information:

Distance = d = ?

Answer:

Distance = d = 2.058 km

Explanation:

We know that the speed of sound in the air is given by

v = 343 m/s

The relation between distance, speed and time is given by

distance = speed*time

substituting the given values yields,

distance = 343*6

distance = 2058 m

There are 1000 meters in 1 km so

d = 2058/1000

d = 2.058 km

Therefore, the storm is about 2.058 km away when elapse time between the lightning and the thunderclap is 6 seconds.

Describe what happens at the molecular level when a substance boils
mote1985 [20]
When a substance boils the molecules within the substance move faster and farther apart, meaning (depending on the current matter state of the substance) molecules will go into more liquid and gaseous states
solid----> liquid ----> gas 
In the case of something boiling the substance goes from liquid to gas due to the increased molecular activity because to heat...
