The atmospheric pressure on the top of the Engineering Sciences Building (ESB) is 97.6 kPa, while that in Room G39-ESB (ground f

Stells [14]

Answer:

Δ h = 52.78 m

Explanation:

given,

Atmospheric pressure at the top of building = 97.6 kPa

Atmospheric pressure at the bottom of building = 98.2 kPa

Density of air = 1.16 kg/m³

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

height of the building = ?

We know,

Δ P = ρ g Δ h

(98.2-97.6) x 10³ = 1.16 x 9.8 x Δ h

11.368 Δ h = 600

Δ h = 52.78 m

Hence, the height of the building is equal to 52.78 m.

A .5kg bird is perched on its nest so that it has 50J of potential energy. how far is it off the of the ground?

pshichka [43]

It is 10.20 m from the ground.

Explanation:

Given:

m = 0.5 kg

PE = 50 J

We know that the Potential energy is calculated by the formula:

$P. E = m \times g \times h$

where m is the is mass in kg; g is acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s and h is height in meters.

PE is the Potential Energy.

Potential Energy is the amount of energy stored when an object is stationary.

Here, if we substitute the values in the formula, we get

$P. E = m \times g \times h$

50 = 0.5 × 9.8 × h

50 = 4.9 × h

$h = \frac {50} {4.9}$

h = 10.20 m

Estimate how long it took King Kong to fall straight down from the top of the Empire State Building (380 m high). Express your a

ankoles [38]

Answer:

It will take 8.80 sec to fall from the building

Explanation:

We have given height pf the state building h = 380 m

Initial velocity will be 0 m /sec

So u = 0 m/sec

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

We have to find the fall time

According to second equation of motion $h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

So $380=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2$

$t^2=77.55$

t = 8.80 sec

solong [7]

Explanation:

When a constant force acts upon an object the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass.

$a\propto \dfrac{1}{m}$

$\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}$

If m₁ = 21 kg, a₁ = 3 m/s², m₂ = 9 kg

We need to find a₂

So,

$a_2=\dfrac{m_1a_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{21\times 3}{9}\\\\a_2=7\ m/s^2$

So, if mass is 9 kg, its acceleration is 7 m/s².
