On another planet gravity has a value of 5.5 m/s . If an object is dropped how long will it take to fall 53 m?

Nikolay [14]3 years ago

Answer:

4.4 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

a = -5.5 m/s²

v₀ = 0 m/s

y₀ = 53 m

y = 0 m

Find: t

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

0 = 53 + 0 + ½ (-5.5) t²

0 = 53 − 2.75 t²

t = 4.39

Rounded to two significant figures, it takes 4.4 seconds for the object to land.

Your answer should be precise to 0.1 m/s. Use a gravitational acceleration of 10 m/s/s. At it lowest point, a pendulum is moving
saw5 [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed, v₁ = 7.7 m/s

We need to find the velocity after it has risen 1 meter above the lowest point. Let it is given by v₂. Using the conservation of energy as :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv_1^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_2^2+mgh

v_2^2=v_1^2-2gh

v_2^2=(7.7)^2-2\times 10\times 1

v_2=6.26\ m/s

So, the velocity after it has risen 1 meter above the lowest point is 6.26 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Objects in space that are moving at a constant velocity in a straight line ___________.
nikdorinn [45]
The best answer is A) <span>keep moving at a constant velocity until some forces act on them

As the man you're probably tired of hearing about said:

"Every object persists in its state of rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless a new force acts upon it" 
This is Isaac Newton's 1st law of motion, or the law of inertia. 

Put more simply, objects in motion tend to stay in motion, and tend the maintain the same velocity (direction and speed) and objects at rest tend to stay at rest. </span>

1.Calculate the energy transferred by a 12V hairdryer, running on a current of 0.50A, that is left on for 8.0 minutes.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

1. Energy = 2880 Joules.

2. Energy = 60 Joules.

3. Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Voltage = 12 Volts

Current = 0.5 Amps

Time, t = 8 mins to seconds = 8 * 60 = 480 seconds

To find the energy;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 12 * 0.5

Power = 6 Watts

Next, we find the energy transferred;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 6 * 480

Energy = 2880 Joules

2. Charge, Q = 4 coulombs

Potential difference, p.d = 15V

To find the total energy transferred;

Energy = Q * p.d

Energy = 4 * 15

Energy = 60 Joules

3. Voltage = 6 Volts

Current = 1 Amps

Time = 2 minutes to seconds = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

To find the quantity of charge;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Quantity of charge = 1 * 120

Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs

A car is initially moving at 35 km/h along a straight highway. To pass another car, it speeds up to 135 km/h in 10.5 seconds at
Aleks04 [339]
Acceleration = (velocity final-velocity initial)/ time
where
velocity final = 135 km/hr x 1 hr /3600 s x 1000m/1km
                     = 37.5 m/s
velocity initial = 35 km/hr x  1hr /3600 s x 1000 m/1 km
                      =  9.72 m/s
a) acceleration = 2.646 m/s^2
b) acceleration in g units  = (2.646m/s^2)/(9.8m/s^2)
                                              = 0.27 units
