For this case we have the following equation:
 -16t + 8t + 8 = 0
 The first thing we must do is rewrite the equation correctly.
 We have then:
 -16t ^ 2 + 8t + 8 = 0
 Solving the polynomial we have:
 t1 = -1/2
 t2 = 1
 We discard the negative root because we want to find the time.
 Answer:
 it takes for the object to reach the ground about:
 t = 1 second

7. A spring balance reads force in Newton. The scale is 20 cm long and reads from 0 to
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The potential  energy when it reads 40 N is PE  = 5.33 \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The lowest reading of the spring balance is  0 N and this is at  0 cm = 0 m

   The height reading of the spring balance is 60 N  and this is at 20 cm =  0.20 m

   Generally the length corresponding to the reading of 40 N is mathematically represented as

       d = \frac{40 * 0.20 }{60 }

=>    d = 0.133 \  m

Generally the potential  energy is mathematically represented as

      PE = m * g * d

Here

     F = mg  =  40 N

So  

     PE = 40 * 0.133

=>  PE  = 5.33 \ J

Doubling an objects speed will have what effect on its potential energy due to gravity
prohojiy [21]

An object's gravitational potential energy is

(mass) x (gravity) x (height above ground) .

I don't see the object's speed anywhere in that formula, do you ?

An object's speed has no effect whatsoever on its potential energy ... only if it changes the object's height above ground.

Let's say you were using a single-pulley system to lift a flag up a flagpole. If you wanted to raise the flag 10 meters into the
Nata [24]

Answer:

b. 10 meters

Explanation:

In a single pulley , which is a lever , velocity ratio is one . In other words , velocity of load is equal to velocity of effort . The load shifts by the same distance as the force or effort moves . The only advantage of this pulley is that direction of force is reversed .

Hence to raise  a flag by 10 m , rope would have to move by 10 m .
