A physics student drops a water balloon from an upstairs window. The window is 26.45 m from the ground. How long does it take for the balloon to hit the ground? (Round to the
nearest tenth)

Explanation:

Given:

Distance S = 26.45m

Using the equation of motion

S = ut+1/2gt²

26.45 = 0+1/2(9.81)t²

26.45 = 4.905t²

t² = 26.45/4.905

t² = 5.392

t = 2.528s

Hence the it took the balloon 2.52s to reach the ground

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
