-- The acceleration due to gravity is 32.2 ft/sec² . That means that the
speed of a falling object increases by an additional 32.2 ft/sec every second.
-- If dropped from "rest" (zero initial speed), then after falling for 4 seconds,
the object's speed is (4.0) x (32.2) = <em>128.8 ft/sec</em>.
-- 128.8 ft/sec = <em>87.8 miles per hour</em>
Now we can switch over to the metric system, where the acceleration
due to gravity is typically rounded to 9.8 meters/sec² .
-- Distance = (1/2) x (acceleration) x (time)²
D = (1/2) (9.8) x (4)² =<em> 78.4 meters</em>
-- At 32 floors per 100 meters, 78.4 meters = dropped from the <em>25th floor</em>.
The 5 points are certainly appreciated, but I do wish they were Celsius points.
Answer:
1/8 = (1/2)^3
This implies the sample has decayed for 3 half lives
3 * 5730 yrs = 17,200 years
Answer:
199.0521 Will be the answer
Answer: Workdone293.02KJ
Explanation: The equation to use to calculate Workdone = Change in KE + Change in PE
Assuming velocity is constant,KE becomes 0
Workdone= Change in PE=mg
W=92×9.8×325=293.02KJ
