The Book of Dragons
Chapter III The Deliverers of Their Country, an excerpt
By E. Nesbit

It all began with Effie's getting something in her eye. It hurt very much indeed, and it felt something like a red-hot spark—only it seemed to have legs as well, and wings like a fly. Effie rubbed and cried—not real crying, but the kind your eye does all by itself without your being miserable inside your mind—and then she went to her father to have the thing in her eye taken out. Effie's father was a doctor, so of course he knew how to take things out of eyes.

When he had gotten the thing out, he said: "This is very curious." Effie had often got things in her eye before, and her father had always seemed to think it was natural—rather tiresome and naughty perhaps, but still natural. He had never before thought it curious.

Effie stood holding her handkerchief to her eye, and said: "I don't believe it's out." People always say this when they have had something in their eyes.

"Oh, yes—it's out," said the doctor. "Here it is, on the brush. This is very interesting."

Effie had never heard her father say that about anything that she had any share in. She said: "What?"

The doctor carried the brush very carefully across the room, and held the point of it under his microscope—then he twisted the brass screws of the microscope, and looked through the top with one eye.

"Dear me," he said. "Dear, dear me! Four well-developed limbs; a long caudal appendage; five toes, unequal in lengths, almost like one of the Lacertidae, yet there are traces of wings." The creature under his eye wriggled a little in the castor oil, and he went on: "Yes; a bat-like wing. A new specimen, undoubtedly. Effie, run round to the professor and ask him to be kind enough to step in for a few minutes."

"You might give me sixpence, Daddy," said Effie, "because I did bring you the new specimen. I took great care of it inside my eye, and my eye does hurt."

The doctor was so pleased with the new specimen that he gave Effie a shilling, and presently the professor stepped round. He stayed to lunch, and he and the doctor quarreled very happily all the afternoon about the name and the family of the thing that had come out of Effie's eye.

But at teatime another thing happened. Effie's brother Harry fished something out of his tea, which he thought at first was an earwig. He was just getting ready to drop it on the floor, and end its life in the usual way, when it shook itself in the spoon—spread two wet wings, and flopped onto the tablecloth. There it sat, stroking itself with its feet and stretching its wings, and Harry said: "Why, it's a tiny newt!"

The professor leaned forward before the doctor could say a word. "I'll give you half a crown for it, Harry, my lad," he said, speaking very fast; and then he picked it up carefully on his handkerchief.

"It is a new specimen," he said, "and finer than yours, Doctor."

It was a tiny lizard, about half an inch long—with scales and wings.

So now the doctor and the professor each had a specimen, and they were both very pleased. But before long these specimens began to seem less valuable. For the next morning, when the knife-boy was cleaning the doctor's boots, he suddenly dropped the brushes and the boot and the blacking, and screamed out that he was burnt.

And from inside the boot came crawling a lizard as big as a kitten, with large, shiny wings.

"Why," said Effie, "I know what it is. It is a dragon like the one St. George killed."

And Effie was right. That afternoon Towser was bitten in the garden by a dragon about the size of a rabbit, which he had tried to chase, and the next morning all the papers were full of the wonderful "winged lizards" that were appearing all over the country. The papers would not call them dragons, because, of course, no one believes in dragons nowadays—and at any rate the papers were not going to be so silly as to believe in fairy stories. At first there were only a few, but in a week or two the country was simply running alive with dragons of all sizes, and in the air you could sometimes see them as thick as a swarm of bees. They all looked alike except as to size. They were green with scales, and they had four legs and a long tail and great wings like bats' wings, only the wings were a pale, half-transparent yellow, like the gear-boxes on bicycles.

Based on the rising action in the bolded paragraphs, what do we know about Daddy? (5 points)

He is calm and curious.
He is angry and upset.
He is hysterical.
He is uninterested and bored.

Two gravitational forces act on a
given object. How do you determine the total gravita-
tional force acting on the object?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Depends on the location of the two forces.  If they are aligned on the same side of the object, you would simply add.

X -----------F1 -------F2

X is the object. F1 and F2 are both masses which create a gravitational force. They both are the form of Fx = G * m1 * m2 / r^2. The total force is F1 + F2

If they are are on either side of the object, you subtract.

F1 ---------X ---------F2

Fx = F1 - F2

Any other location of F1 and F2 is much more complicated by the use of trigonometry.

A pitcher throws a softball toward home plate. When the ball hits the catcher’s mitt, its horizontal velocity is 32 meters/second. The softball’s velocity goes to 0 meters/second in 0. 8 seconds when caught. If the softball has a mass of 0. 2 kilograms, what’s the force of the impact? Use F = ma, where. The force of the impact is newtons.

Answers

The force of impact of the softball at the given conditions is 8 N.

The given parameters:

Horizontal velocity of the ball, v = 32 m/sChange in time of motion of the ball, Δt = 0.8 sMass of the ball, m = 0.2 kg

The force of impact of the softball is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion as follows;

[tex]F = ma\\\\F = m \times \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} \\\\F = 0.2 \times \frac{32 - 0}{0.8 - 0} \\\\F = \frac{0.2 \times 32}{0.8} \\\\F = 8 \ N[/tex]

Thus, the force of impact of the softball at the given conditions is 8 N.

Answers

The horizontal component of the velocity is equal to: D. 15 m/s.

Given the following data:

Velocity = 30 m/sAngle = 60°

To determine the horizontal component of the velocity:

The horizontal component of the velocity represents the influence of velocity  in displacing an object or projectile in the horizontal direction.

Mathematically, the horizontal component of velocity is given by the formula:

[tex]V_x = Vcos(\theta)[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Which of the balls will exert the greatest force on object A?Why?

Answers

F = mass × Acceleration ( give Acceleration is 9.8 )

So force of 5 kg mass on A is

F = 5 × 9.8 = 49N

Force of mass 1 kg on A

F = 1 × 9.8 = 9.8 N

Force of mass 10 kg on A is

F = 10 × 9.8 = 98N

Clearly the 10 kg ball experts the most force cause it has more mass

Answers

Answer:

Before collision:

momentum to right = .14 * 3.5 = .49 kg m / s

momentum to left = .62 * 4.81 = 2.98 kg m / s

Total momentum = .49 - 2.98 = - 2.49 to left

M V = -2.49    net momentum to left

V = -2.49 / (.14 + .62) = -3.28 m/s to left

Define the following:
Potential energy
Kinetic energy
Mechanical energy
Chemical energy
Sound energy
Light energy
Nuclear energy

Answers

Define the following:
Potential energy: In physics, potential energy is the energy held by an object because of its position relative to other objects, stresses within itself, its electric charge, or other factors.
Kinetic energy: In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.
Mechanical energy:
Chemical energy: chemical energy, Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds. Chemical energy may be released during a chemical reaction, often in the form of heat; such reactions are called exothermic. Reactions that require an input of heat to proceed may store some of that energy as chemical energy in newly formed bonds
Sound energy: In physics, sound energy is a form of energy that can be heard by living things. Only those waves that have a frequency of 16 Hz to 20 kHz are audible to humans. However, this range is an average and will slightly change from individual to individual.
Light energy: Light energy is a kind of kinetic energy with the ability to make types of light visible to human eyes. Light is defined as a form of electromagnetic radiation emitted by hot objects like lasers, bulbs, and the sun. Light contains photons which are minute packets of energy.
Nuclear energy: Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions to produce electricity. Nuclear power can be obtained from nuclear fission, nuclear decay and nuclear fusion reactions. Presently, the vast majority of electricity from nuclear power is produced by nuclear fission of uranium and plutonium in nuclear power plants

Answer

potential energy is the energy that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position. An object possesses gravitational potential energy if it is positioned at a height above (or below) the zero height.

Kinetic energy is a form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion. ... Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle and depends not only on its motion but also on its mass.

The energy of an object due to its motion or position; the sum of an object's kinetic energy and potential energy is called mechanical energy.

Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds. Chemical energy may be released during a chemical reaction, often in the form of heat; such reactions are called exothermic

Sound energy is defined as the movement of vibrations through matter. Sound energy is produced when an object vibrates, which results in noise. The sound vibrations cause waves of pressure that travel through a medium, such as air, water, wood, or metal.

Light energy is a kind of kinetic energy with the ability to make types of light visible to human eyes. Light is defined as a form of electromagnetic radiation emitted by hot objects like lasers, bulbs, and the sun. Light contains photons which are minute packets of energy.

Nuclear energy is energy in the nucleus (core) of an atom. ... It can be released from atoms in two ways: nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. In nuclear fusion, energy is released when atoms are combined or fused together to form a larger atom. This is how the sun produces energy.
