Answer:

1/2 M V^2 = .1 M g H       where 10% of PE goes into KE

V^2 = .2 g H = .2 * 9.8 * (2100 - 1600) = 980 m^2 / s^2

V = 31.1 m/s       increase in speed during descent

1 km / hr = 1000 m / 3600 sec = .278 m/s

V = 31.1 m/s / (.278 m/s / km /hr)= 112 km/hr

A 30 cm scale has one end broken. The mark at the broken end is 2.6 cm. How would you use it to measure the length of your penci
lidiya [134]

Answer:

the mark of the broken end is 2.6 cm so, we use the scale from the next full mark i.e. 3cm

Explanation:

<em>we </em><em>now </em><em>measure</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>length</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>pencil</em><em> </em><em>by </em><em>keeping </em><em>the </em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>c</em><em>m</em><em> </em><em>mark </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>scale</em><em> </em><em>at </em><em>it's</em><em> </em><em>left </em><em>end.</em>

<em>The </em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>cm </em><em>value </em><em>is </em><em>then </em><em>subtracted</em><em> </em><em>from </em><em>the </em><em>scale</em><em> </em><em>reading</em><em> </em><em>at </em><em>the </em><em>right</em><em> </em><em>side </em><em>end </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>pencil</em><em> </em><em>to </em><em>obtain </em><em>the </em><em>correct</em><em> </em><em>length</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>pencil.</em><em> </em><em>✏️</em>

<em>(</em><em>i </em><em>i </em><em>)</em><em> </em>place the scale in the contact with object along it's length

(2) Your eyes must be exactly in front of the point where the measurements to be taken.

According to Newton’s second law of motion what is force equals to
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:force equals to rate of change of momentum

Explanation:

F=force

t=time

m=mass

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

(mv-mu)/t=rate of change of momentum

Force=rate of change of momentum

F=(mv-mu)/t

Find the object's speeds v1, v2, and v3 at times t1=2.0s, t2=4.0s, and t3=13s.
Burka [1]
Since this is a distance/time graph, the speed at any time is the slope
of the part of the graph that's directly over that time on the x-axis.

At time  t1 = 2.0 s
That's in the middle of the first segment of the graph,
that extends from zero to 3 seconds.
Its slope is  7/3 .              v1 = 7/3 m/s .

At time  t2 = 4.0 s
That's in the middle of the horizontal part of the graph
that runs from 3 to 6 seconds.
Its slope is zero.
                                     v2 = zero .

At time  t3 = 13 s.
That's in the middle of the part of the graph that's sloping down,
between 11 and 16 seconds.
Its slope is  -3/5 .            v3 = -0.6 m/s .
