A rock dropped down a well takes 1.8 s to hit the water. How far below the top of the well is the surface of the water

Physics
1 answer:
Brut [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: 15.87 m

From the equation of motion:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where, s is the distance traveled, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

The rock free falls under gravity. Initial velocity, u=0 m/s, a=g=9.8m/s^2

It took t=1.8 s for rock to hit the water.

Substitute the values in the given equation:

\Rightarrow s=0+\frac{1}{2}9.8m/s^2\times(1.8s)^2=15.87 m

Hence, the water is 15.87 m below the top level of the well.

The static frictional force between a 95-kilogram object and the floor is 45 Newtons. The kinetic frictional force is only 22 Ne
Lisa [10]

Answer:

F = 69.5 [N]

Explanation:

We must remember that the friction force is defined as the product of the normal force by the coefficient of friction, and it can be calculated by the following expression.

f=N*miu

where:

N = normal force [N]

miu = friction coefficient

f = friction force = 22 [N]

Now we must calculate the force exerted by means of Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F - f = m*a

where:

F = force exerted [N]

f = friction force [N]

m = mass = 95 [kg]

a = acceleration = 0.5 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

F - 22 = 95*0.5\\F = 47.5 + 22\\F = 69.5 [N]

If a car changes ita velocity from 32km/hr to 54km/hr in 8.0 seconds, what is its acceleration
Andrews [41]
Firstly, let's convert the velocities in km/hr to m/s
32*1000/3600=8.89m/s
54*1000/3600=15m/s
From the formula, acceleration=V-U/t
15-8.89/8=0.76m/s²
hope this helps.

viktelen [127]
1000 miles = 1610km = 1.61x10^6m
2 weeks = 14 days = 14x24x1440

V=d/t = 1.61x10^6/14x24x1440
= 3.33m/s

a bird flies 25.0 m in the direction 55° east of south to its nest. the bird then flies 75.0 m in the direction 55° west of nort
son4ous [18]

The northward components of the resultant displacement is 40.96 m and the westward components of the resultant displacement of the bird from its nest is 28.68 m.

<h3>Displacement of the bird</h3>

The displacement of the bird is the change in the position of the bird.

<h3>Vertical component of the bird's displacement </h3>

Vy₁ = -25 m  x   sin(55)

Vy₁ = -20.48 m

Vy₂ = 75 m   x    sin(55)

Vy₂ = 61.44 m

Total vertical displacement = 61.44 m - 20.48 m = 40.96 m

<h3>Horizontal component of the bird's displacement </h3>

Vx₁ = -25 m  x   cos(55)

Vx₁ = -14.34 m

Vx₂ = 75 m   x    cos(55)

Vx₂ = 43.02 m

Total horizontal displacement = 43.02 m - 14.34 m = 28.68 m
