Answer:
The amount of gravitational potential energy an object has depends on its height and mass. The heavier the object and the higher it is above the ground, the more gravitational potential energy it holds.
Hope this helps :)
Given :
A tourist drops (from rest) a ping pong ball from the top of the tower, which has a height of 174 meters.
To Find :
How long does it take for the ping pong ball to hit the ground ?
Solution :
We know, equation of motion of object doing free fall is :
....1)
Here, g = 9.8 m/s² ( acceleration due to gravity )
Also, u = 0 m/s ( its free fall )
Putting these values in equation 1), we get :
Therefore, ball will take 5.96 s to hit the ground.
Answer:
Explanation:
We shall represent each move of coach in vector form , considering unit vector i towards east and unit vector j towards north .
he drove 100 m North
First displacement D₁ = 100 j
200 m East to reach the 133
second displacement D₂ = 200 i
500 m North to reach Papa John's
third displacement
D₃ = 500 j
Total displacement ( resultant displacement )
= D₁ + D₂ + D₃
= 100 j + 200 i + 500 j
= 200 i + 600 j
magnitude of resultant displacement
= √ ( 200² + 600² )
= √ 40000 + 360000
= 632.45 m
Answer:
2.464 cm above the water surface
Explanation:
Recall that for the cube to float, means that the volume of water displaced weights the same as the weight of the block.
We calculate the weight of the block multiplying its density (0.78 gr/cm^3) times its volume (11.2^3 cm^3):
weight of the block = 0.78 * 11.2^3 gr
Now the displaced water will have a volume equal to the base of the cube (11.2 cm^2) times the part of the cube (x) that is under water. Recall as well that the density of water is 1 gr/cm^3.
So the weight of the volume of water displaced is:
weight of water = 1 * 11.2^2 * x
we make both weight expressions equal each other for the floating requirement:
0.78 * 11.2^3 = 11.2^2 * x
then x = 0.78 * 11.2 cm = 8.736 cm
This "x" is the portion of the cube under water. Then to estimate what is left of the cube above water, we subtract it from the cube's height (11.2 cm) as follows:
11.2 cm - 8.736 cm = 2.464 cm
