According to Archimede's principle, a physical object experiences an upthrust due to a difference in pressure between upper and lower surfaces.

<h3>What is an upthrust?</h3>

An upthrust is also referred to as buoyancy and it can be defined as an upward force which is exerted by a fluid (liquid or gas), so as to oppose the weight of a partially or fully immersed physical object that is floating in it.

Based on scientific information, a physical object experiences an upthrust when it is immersed in a fluid due to a difference in height and pressure between upper (top) and lower (bottom) surfaces.

According to Archimede's principle, there is a higher pressure at the bottom of the physical object due to height, and a lower pressure at the top of the physical object.

An apple falls from a tree and 2.5 seconds later hits the ground. How fast is the apple falling when it hits the ground? Neglect

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

<h2>Since the ball rises for 2.5 s, the time to fall is 2.5 s. The acceleration is 9.8 m/s2 everywhere, even when the velocity is zero at the top of the path. Although the velocity is zero at the top, it is changing at the rate of 9.8 m/s² downward.</h2>

The momentum of a falling rock is found to be 200 kg m/s. What is the mass of the rock if it falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 40 \ kilograms}}$

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of velocity and mass. The formula is:

$p=m*v$

We know the rock is falling. Its momentum is 200 kilograms meters per second and its velocity is 5 meters per second. Substitute the values into the formula.

$200 \ kg \ m/s = m * 5.0 \ m/s$

We are solving for m, the mass. We must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 5 meters per second. The inverse of multiplication is division, so we divided both sides by 5.0 m/s.

$\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=\frac{ m* 5.0 \ m/s }{5.0 \ m/s}$
