Answer:

The industry standard life span is about 25 to 30 years, and that means that some panels installed at the early end of the current boom aren't long from being retired is the operating life time of a PV module .

A thundercloud has an electric charge of 48.8 C near the top of the cloud and –41.7 C near the bottom of the cloud. The magnitud

IceJOKER [234]

Answer: 1.51 km

Explanation:

Coulomb's Law: The electrostatic force between two charge particles Q: and Q2 is directly proportional to product of magnitude of charges and inversely proportional to square of separation distance between them.

Or, $\vec{F}=k \frac{Q_{1} Q_{2}}{r^{2}}$

Where Q1 and Q2 are magnitude of two charges and r is distance between them:

Given:

Q1 = Charge near top of cloud = 48.8 C

Q2 = Charge near the bottom of cloud = -41.7 C

Force between charge at top and bottom of cloud (i.e. between Q: and Q2) (F) = 7.98 x 10^6N

k = 8.99 x 109Nm^2/C^2

So,

$\begin{aligned}&7.98 \times 10^{6}=\left(8.99 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{Nm}^{2} / \mathrm{C}^{2}\right) \frac{48.8 \mathrm{C} \times 41.7 \mathrm{C}}{\mathrm{r}^{2}} \\&r=\sqrt{\frac{1.8294 \times 10^{13}}{7.98 \times 10^{6}}}=1.514 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~m}=1.51 \mathrm{~km}\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the separation between the two charges (r) = 1.51 km

A baseball rolls off a 1.20m high desk and strikes the floor 0.50m away from the base of the desk . How fast was it rolling?

noname [10]

The initial velocity of the ball is 1.01 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball rolling off the desk is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform horizontal motion with constant horizontal velocity

- A vertical accelerated motion with constant acceleration ( $g=9.8 m/s^2$ , acceleration due to gravity)

We start by analyzing the vertical motion: we can find the time of flight of the ball by using the following suvat equation

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

s = 1.20 m is the vertical displacement (the height of the desk)

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

t is the time of flight

Solving for t,

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.20)}{9.8}}=0.495 s$

Now we analyze the horizontal motion. We know that the ball covers a horizontal distance of

d = 0.50 m

in a time

t = 0.495 s

Therefore, since the horizontal velocity is constant, we can calculate it as

$v_x = \frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.50}{0.495}=1.01 m/s$

So, the ball rolls off the table at 1.01 m/s.

A mercury thermometer is used to measure the temperature of boiling water. Why?

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

It has very high density, so a small bulb of a thermometer can contain much mercury. Mercury remains liquid state over a quite wide range of temperature because it freezes at 39°C and boils at 357°C.
