Answer:

28.7 m.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the coin is dropped from the rest condition at which the initial velocity is 0 m/s, we can compute the height of the precipice via the following equation:

y=y_0+v_0*t-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Whereas the final height is 0, the initial one is to be computed and the gravity is considered as 9.8 m/s², therefore the height turns out:

y=y_0+v_0*t-\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\y_0=\frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}*9.8m/s^2*(2.42s)^2 \\\\y_0=28.7m

It means that the height of the cliff is 28.7 m.

Regards.

a 1-kg discus is thrown with a velocity of 19 m/s at an angle of 35 degrees from the vertical direction. calculate the vertical
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Vx =  10.9 m/s ,  Vy = 15.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given velocity V= 19 m/s

the angle 35 ° is taken from Y-axis so the angle with x-axis will be 90°-35° = 55°

θ = 55°

to Find Vx = ? and Vy= ?

Vx = V cos θ

Vx = 19 m/s  × cos 55°

Vx =  10.9 m/s

Vx = V sin θ

Vy = 19 m/s  × sin 55°

Vy = 15.6 m/s

two 2.5 kg balls move away from each other one traveling 3 m/s to the right the other 4 m/s to the left what is the magnitude of
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

2.5 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Taking left side as positive while right side direction as negative then

Momentum, p= mv where m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity of travel

Momentum for ball moving towards right side=mv=2.5*-3=-7.5 kg.m/s

Momentum for the ball moving towards the left side=mv=2.5*4=10 kg.m/s

Total momentum=-7.5 kg.m/s+10 kg.m/s=2.5 kg.m/s

The typical unit for a period used with Kepler's third law is
ollegr [7]
Well, if you're using the law to work with periods of Earth satellites,
then the most convenient unit is going to be 'hours' for the largest
orbits, or 'minutes' for the LEOs.

But if you're using it to work with periods of planets, asteroids, or
comets, then you'd be working in days or years.
