Answer:

80 m tall

Explanation:

*** EDITED *** (I left out the '1/2' in the equation....D'Oh!)

It was descending 4 seconds ...because it landed 20 m away (at 5 m/s ...so 4 seconds)

displacement =<u> 1/2</u> a t^2

= 1/2 * 10 ( 4)^2 = 80 m tall

An airplane dropped a flare from a height of 2860 feet above a lake. How many seconds did it take for the flare to reach the wat

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: 13.2 seconds.

Explanation: using equation of motion; S= ut +1/2at² where u = initial velocity=0

S= distance travelled

a = acceleration due gravity

t= time.

1 foot = 0.305m so,

S= 2860 feet =872.3m

S= ut+1/2 at²

872.3 = 0×t + 1/2×10 × t²

872.3 =0 + 5t²

T²= 872.3/5

T²= 174.46

Take the square root of T we then have;

t = 13.2 seconds to one decimal place.

Radio waves travel at 3.00 · 108 m/s. Calculate the wavelength of a radio wave of frequency 900 kHz. (9.00 · 105 Hz.)

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

V: velocity of wave
f: frequency
L: wavelenght

v = fL => L = v/f => L = (3x10^8)/(900x10^3) => L = 3.33 x 10^2m

In the great shopping cart race, two students push on shopping carts. A having twice the mass of B, with the same force applied

fiasKO [112]

B. cart B

Explanation:

The acceleration of each cart is given by Newton's second law:

$F=ma$

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

where F is the force applied, a is the acceleration and m is the cart's mass.

The force F applied is the same for the two carts, however the mass of cart A (mA) is twice than the mass of cart B (mB), so we can rewrite the two accelerations:

$a_A = \frac{F}{m_A}=\frac{F}{2 m_B}$

$a_B = \frac{F}{m_B}$

we see that the acceleration of cart B is twice the acceleration of cart A, therefore cart B will move faster and will win the race.
