Against the park ranger's advice, a visitor at a national park throws a stone horizontally off the edge of a 83 m high cliff and

it lands a distance of 93 m from the edge of the cliff, narrowly missing a visitor below.
What was the initial horizontal velocity of the rock, in m/s? You can round your answer to the hundredths place and use g ≈ 10 m/s2.

A hand lifts a block vertically upward at constant velocity. The work done by gravity on the block ____ if the system consists o
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

If the system consists of the block only, the work done by the gravity is negative.

If the system consists of the block and the earth the work done by the gravity is zero.

Explanation:

If the system consists of the block only, then the system experiences two external forces: one exerted by the hand that lifts the block vertically upward and other exerted by the earth (gravity), which is opposed to the movement of the system, so the work done by gravity is negative.

On the other hand, if the system consists of the block and the earth, then only exists a external force which is the exerted by the hand. So, the force exerted by gravity is zero.

Suppose a rock is dropped off a cliff with an initial speed of 0m/s. What is the rocks speed after 5 secounds, in m/s, if it enc
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The rock's speed after 5 seconds is 98 m/s.

Explanation:

A rock is dropped off a cliff.

It had an initial velocity of 0 m/s. And now it is moving downwards under the influence of gravitational force with the gravitational acceleration of 9.8 m/s².

Speed after 5 seconds = V

We know that acceleration = average speed/time

In our case,

g = ((0+V)/2)/5

9.8*5 = V/2

=> V = 2*9.8*5

V = 98 m/s

Danny lowers the sails on his boat. He paddles upstream at 19 km/hr. The current is still running downstream at 15 km/hr. What i
Molodets [167]

Answer:

4 km/hr

Explanation:

The computation of the actual velocity is shown below:

Because the path of its paddles is opposed to the current direction, the real velocity can be determined by deducting the current velocity to its velocity while paddling

So, the actual velocity is

= Upstream - downstream

= 19 km/hr - 15 km/hr

= 4 km/hr

As we can see it is in positive, so it is an upstream direction

An isolated charged point particle produces an electric field with magnitude E at a point 2 m away. At a point 1 m from the part
guajiro [1.7K]

Explanation:

The electric field at a distance r from the charged particle is given by :

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

k is electrostatic constant

if r = 2 m, electric field is given by :

E_1=\dfrac{kq}{(2)^2}\\\\=\dfrac{kq}{4}\ .....(1)

If r = 1 m, electric field is given by :

E_2=\dfrac{kq}{r_2^2}\\\\=\dfrac{kq}{1}\ ....(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2) we get :

\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{kq}{4}}{kq}\\\\\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\E_2=4\times E_1

So, at a point 1 m from the particle, the electric field is 4 times of the electric field at a point 2 m.

a car moving at 11 m/s crashes into an obstacle and stops in 0.26s. compute the Force that a seatbelt exerts on a 21-kg child to
Natalka [10]

Answer:

890 N

Explanation:

Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time.

a = Δv / Δt

a = (11 m/s − 0 m/s) / 0.26 s

a = 42.3 m/s²

Force is mass times acceleration.

F = ma

F = (21 kg) (42.3 m/s²)

F ≈ 890 N
