The time taken to reach the ocean from the cliff is 2.24 seconds

The speed of the stone at the point of contact is 21.984 m/s

The stone is thrown horizontally with a speed of 19.5 m/s from the cliff

The height of the cliff = 24.6m

  • The time taken by the stone to reach the ocean can be calculated using the formula

                      y - v₁t = -1/2 gt²

where y is the height of the cliff

           v₁ is the speed of stone vertically

           g is the acceleration due to gravity

           t is the time taken

But the speed of the stone vertically will be zero, v₁ = 0

Therefore, the equation becomes

               y = -1/2gt²

Let us re-write this equation in order to find t

            t = √(-2y/g)

Now, let's substitute the known values in the above equation, we get
          t = √(-2x -24.6 / 9.8)

           =√(49.2/9.8)

           = √5.02

          = 2.24 seconds

Therefore, the time taken to reach the beach is 2.24 seconds

  • The speed of the stone at the point of impact can be found using the formula

                                              a = v/t

where a is the acceleration

          v is the velocity

          t is the time taken

Here, the acceleration is the acceleration due to gravity

Thus, the velocity of the stone is

                    v = at

                      = 9.8 x 2.24

                     = 21.984 m/s

Therefore the velocity of the stone is 21.984 m/s

If the frog lands with a velocity equal to its average velocity and comes to a full stop 0.25s later, what is the frog’s average
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Average accelation = -4V

Explanation:

a=\frac{V-V0}{t}

V=0 m/s (because the frog stopped)

V0 = V (average velocity)

t= 0,25 s

So;

a=\frac{V-V0}{t}=\frac{0-V}{0.25}=-4V

If a system has 475 kcal of work done to it, and releases 5.00 × 102 kJ of heat into its surroundings, what is the change in int
Andrews [41]
First, we convert kcal to joules:
1 kcal = 4.184 kJ
475 kcal = 1987.4 kJ

Now, calculating the change in internal energy:

ΔU = Q + W; where Q is the heat supplied to the system and W is the work done on the system.

ΔU = -500 + 1987.4
ΔU = 1487.4 kJ

Energy cannot be created nor destroyed. A. Ella said "a lot of energy in the hot water has disappeared." Explain why her stateme
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of energy states that; energy can neither be created nor destroyed but is converted from one form to another.

In view of this principle, Ella can not be correct when she says that a lot of energy has disappeared. The use of the term "disappeared" connotes the idea that the energy no longer exists which does not happen.

Hence, energy can not "disappear" from hot water rather the energy in the water may be transferred to the surroundings.

A spring scale exerts a net force of 8.5 N on an object. What is the object's mass if it has an acceleration of
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

mass of the object is 2.18 kg

Explanation:

Given

Force (F) = 8.5 N = 8.5 kg.m/s^{2}

acceleration (a) = 3.9 m/s^{2}

Mass (m) = ?

We know that the newton's second law of motion gives the relation between mass of ab object. force acted upon and the amount the object is accelerated. It is expressed in the form of an equation:

F = ma

mass, m = F/a

               = \frac{8.5 kgms^{-2} }{3.9 ms^{-2} }

               = 2.18 kg
