Answer:

  106.03 meters  

Explanation:

The height is given by the formula for motion under the influence of gravity.

  h = -4.9t^2 +162.7

Height is 0 when ...

  0 = -4.9t^2 +162.7

  4.9t^2 = 162.7

  t^2 = 162.7/4.9

  t = √(162.7/4.9)

The horizontal distance traveled in that time is ...

  (18.4 m/s)√(162.7/4.9) s ≈ 106.03 m

The object will strike the ground about 106.03 meters from the base of the cliff.

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Find answers below.

Explanation:

1. Radiant: the energy of light.

2. Light: makes it possible to see things.

3. Sun: a source of light. This source of light is referred to as solar energy and it's renewable source of energy.

4. Crest: top of wave. Thus, it's typically the highest part of an electromagnetic wave.

5. Trough: bottom of wave. Thus, it's typically the lowest part of an electromagnetic wave.

6. Wavelength: distance from one point on one wave to the same point on the next wave.

7. Infrared light: it has longer wavelengths than visible light.

8. X-rays: shorter wavelengths than visible light.

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

An electromagnetic spectrum refers to a range of frequency and wavelength that an electromagnetic wave is distributed or extends. The electromagnetic spectrum comprises of gamma rays, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, radio waves, and infrared radiation.

A coach shouts "Go!" from the finish line of a 100.0-m track to the runners.
irina [24]

Answer:

a. Speed = 342.5 meters per seconds.

b. Wavelength = 2.0 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 100m

Time = 292 milliseconds to seconds = 292/1000 = 0.292 seconds

Frequency = 171 Hz

a. To find the speed of sound in air;

Speed = distance/time

Speed = 100/0.292

Speed = 342.5 m/s

b. To find the wavelength;

Wavelength = speed/frequency

Wavelength = 342.5/171

Wavelength = 2.0 m

A ball is fixed to the end of a string, which is attached to the ceiling at point P. As the drawing shows, the ball is projected
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The ball's initial kinetic energy

The ball comes to a stop at B. At this point its initial kinetic energy is converted into potential energy

Explanation:

A ball is fixed to the end of a string, which is attached to the ceiling at point P. As the drawing shows, the ball is projected downward at A with the launch speed v0. Traveling on a circular path, the ball comes to a halt at point B. What enables the ball to reach point B, which is above point A? Ignore friction and air resistance.

From conservation of energy which states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed, but can be transformed from one form to another.

Ki+Ui=Kf+Uf

Ki=initial kinetic energy

Ui=initial potential energy

Kf=final kinetic energy

Uf=final potential energy

we know that \frac{1}{2} mu^{2} +mgha=\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} +mghb

m=mass of the ball

ha=downward height a

hb=upward height b

u=initial velocity u

v=final velocity v, which is 0

g=acceleration due to gravity

v=0 at final velocity

1/2mu^2+mgha=0+1/2mv^2

ha=hb+Ki/mh

From the above equation, we can conclude that the ball's initial kinetic energy  is responsible for making the ball reach point B.

Point B is higher than point A from the motion gained by the ball

A boy on board a cruise ship drops a 30. 0 gm marble into the ocean. If the resistive force proportionality constant is 0. 500 k
svlad2 [7]

The terminal speed of the marble is 0.588 m/s.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

We know that,

F = mg                                                   ......(1)

where,

F = force

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

Also,

v = F/k                                                       ......(2)

where,

v = terminal speed

k = proportionality constant

Substituting the value of F from equation (1) in equation (2)

v = mg/k                                                         .......(3)

Given,

m = 30 g = 0.030 kg

k = 0.500 kg/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

To find,

v =?

Put the values in equation (3)

v = mg/k              

v = 0.03(9.8)/ 0.500

  = 0.294/0.500

  = 0.588 m/s

​

Hence, the terminal speed of the marble is 0.588 m/s.
