A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 0.10 km high. The ball strikes the ground at a point 65 m horizontally
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

47 ms

well the time it takes to fall 100m is the same time it takes to travel 65m horizontally.

The time to fall vertically, t is sqrt(2d/g). [this comes from d = 1/2at^2]

so t = sqrt(2*100/9.8) = 4.52s.

The vertical speed at that time is g*t = 9.8*4.52 = 44.3m/s

The horizontal speed is the horizontal distance over the same 4.52s, = 65/4.52 = 14.4m/s.

so the final velocity is = sqrt(44.3^2 + 14.4^2) = 47.ms

Write any two difference between air pump and water pump.​
Alina [70]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

a)

Pumping water requires equipment with closed housing, so that water is not irrigated from the pumping point.

Fans in some applications do not require closed housings, as air irritation does not create anomalies or areas of nonconformity at the air pumping point.

b)

The pressures in water pumping equipment are usually much higher than those generated with air equipment, since the density of water is much higher than that of air, almost 1000 times higher.

1. What is work done in holding a 15kg suitcase while waiting for a bus for 15 minutes?
Tems11 [23]
Work is (force applied) x (distance through which the force moves).

Since the suitcase doesn't move up or down during the 15 minutes,
no work is done ... zero, zip, nada ... according to the real Physics
definition of 'work'.

The Force Of Gravity Acting On A Childs Mass On Earth Is 490 newtons whats the childs mass
Flauer [41]
Force of gravity on an object is the weight of the object and is given by mass times accerelation due to gravity. The accerelation due to gravity is the accerelation of an object in free fall and is given by 9.8m/s^2. Given that the force of gravity acting on a child's mass on earth is 490 newtns, i.e. F = mg which means that 490 newtons = 9.8 times mass. Therefore, mass of the child is 490 / 9.8 = 50 kg.
