Answer:

the height (in feet) of the cliff is 121 ft

Explanation:

A stone hit the cliff with

speed, v = 88 ft/s

Acceleration, a= 32 ft/s^2

initial speed, u = 0 ft/s

height is h.

To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations, Equation of motion describes change in velocity, depending on the acceleration and the distance traveled

so, writing the formula of Equation of motion:

v^2 - u^2 = 2*a*h

substituting the appropriate values,

(88)^2 - 0 = 2*32* h

h=(88)^2 / 64

h= 121 ft

hence

the height (in feet) of the cliff is 121 ft

A projectile is launched

Flauer [41]

The vertical component of the velocity after the given time is -9.8 m/s while the horizontal component of the velocity is 16 m/s.

The given parameters;

initial horizontal velocity, vₓ = 16 m/s
initial vertical velocity, $v_y =0$
time interval 1 seconds

The components of the velocity can be horizontal or vertical velocity.

The vertical component of the velocity is affected by acceleration due to gravity while the horizontal component of the velocity is not affected by gravity.

The vertical component of the velocity is calculated as;

$v_y = v_0_y -gt\\\\v_y = 0 - (1\times 9.8)\\\\v_y = -9.8 \ m/s$

The horizontal component of the velocity is constant since it is not affected by gravity.

The horizontal component of the velocity = 16 m/s

Thus, the vertical component of the velocity after the given time is -9.8 m/s while the horizontal component of the velocity is 16 m/s.

Sound waves cannot travel in

julsineya [31]

Answer:

The answer is D. A Vacumn

Explanation:

Sound cannot travel through a vacuum. A vacuum is an area without any air, like space. So sound cannot travel through space because there is no matter for the vibrations to work in.

Dejamos caer un objeto desde lo alto de una torre y medimos el tiempo que tarda en llegar al suelo que resulta ser de 0,02 minut

Harman [31]

Answer: a) 11.76 m/s b) 7.056 m

Explanation:

The described situation is as follows:

An object is dropped from the top of a tower and when measuring the time it takes to reach the ground that turns out to be 0.02 minutes.

This situation is related to free fall, this also means we have constant acceleration, hence the equations we will use are:

$V_{f}=V_{o}+at$ (1)

${V_{f}}^{2}={V_{o}}^{2}+2ad$ (2)

Where:

$V_{f}$ Is the final velocity of the object

$V_{o}=0$ Is the initial velocity of the object (it was dropped)

$a=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

$d$ is the height of the tower

$t=0.02min=1.2 s$ is the time it takes to the object to reach the ground

b) Begining with (1):

$V_{f}=0+at$ (3)

$V_{f}=at=(9.8 m/s^{2})(1.2 s)$ (4)

$V_{f}=11.76 m/s$ (5) This is the final velocity of the object

a) Substituting (5) in (2):

$(11.76 m/s)^{2}=0+2(9.8 m/s^{2})d$ (6)

Clearing $d$ :

$d=\frac{(11.76 m/s)^{2}}{2(9.8 m/s^{2})}$ (7)

$d=7.056 m$ (8) This is the height of the tower

Conservation and Rain Water Tank. Through conservation, they can save water in their own houses by lessening the use of water in an unimportant purpose; they can turn of the faucet when it is not used; they can use their laundry water to clean the bathroom and there are more. Through Rain Water Tank, they can create this structure in order to collect rain water and store it in the tank then use it afterwards such as in watering the plants.
