After 8 s, both the balloon and the stone have upward velocity of
v = (1.25 m/s^2)*(8 s) = 10 m/s
Both the balloon and the stone would have traveled upward by a height of
h = (1/2)*(1.25 m/s^2)*(8 s)^2 = 40 m

When the stone is dropped, it will
(a) have an initial upward speed of  10 m/s,
(b) it will be 40 m above ground,
(c) the time for it to reach the ground is given by
    (10 m/s)t - (1/2)*(9.81 m/s^2)t^2 = -40
    4.9t^2 - 10t - 40 =0
    Use the quadratic formula to obtain t = 4.054 s
(d) it will travel a distance upward, s, given by
    0 = 10^2 - 2(9.8)s => s = 5.1 m
    The stone will attain a height of 45.1 m aboe ground.

Answer:
c. The stone will reach the ground in 4 s.

A dragster takes off from rest and crosses the finish line 320 m away. If the dragster is able to accelerate at 10LaTeX: \frac{m
Rasek [7]

Answer:

t = 8 s

Explanation:

In order to find the time taken by the dragster we will use equations of motion. Here, we will use second equation of motion:

s = Vi t + (1/2)at²

where,

s = distance covered = 320 m

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s (Since, dragster starts from rest)

t = time taken = ?

a = acceleration of dragster = 10 m/s²

Therefore,

320 m = (0 m/s)t + (1/2)(10 m/s²)t²

t² = (320 m)(2)/(10 m/s²)

t = √(64 s²)

<u>t = 8 s</u>

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a) 1.092 m/s

b) 0.33 m

c) 0.25 m

Explanation:

To start with, from the formula of wave, we know that

v = f λ, where

v = velocity of wave

f = frequency of the wave

λ = wavelength of the wave

Again, on another hand, we know that

T = 1/f, where T = period of the wave

From the question, we are given that

t = 2.7 s

d = 0.66 m

λ = 5.9 m

Period, T = 2 * t

Period, T = 2 * 2.7

Period, T = 5.4 s

If T = 1/f, then f = 1/T, thus

Frequency, f = 1/5.4

Frequency, f = 0.185 hz

Remember, v = f λ

v = 0.185 * 5.9

v = 1.092 m/s

Amplitude, A = d/2

Amplitude, A = 0.66/2

Amplitude, A = 0.33 m

If the other distance travelled by the boat is 0.5, then Amplitude is

A = 0.5/2

A = 0.25 m

A visitor is staying in a tent that is 11 kilometers west of the closest point on a shoreline to a coral reef. The coral reef is
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, it says that their tent is 11 km away from the shore which is also 3 km away from the coral reef. Essentially, the tent us 11 + 3 km away from the coral reef, and that's 14 km. He has to run at a rate of 7 know to cover an 11 km length and swim at 2 kmph to cover a 3 km length.

All the visitor needs to do is run more than 7 kmph to reduce the days time. For example, running at 11 kmph takes him or her exactly 1 hour to reach the shore, before taking another swim of about an hour to reach the reef

of the following and draw a neat, properly labelled free body diagram. Indicate the size of forces with the lengths of the arrow
julsineya [31]

We will have that the diagram will be the following:

Here "F" is the force the shuttle is using to take off, friction is the friction with the air and "W" is the weight of the shuttle.
