An apple falls out of a tree from a height of 2.3m. what is the impact speed of the apple

Physics
1 answer:
Anuta_ua [19.1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:6.71 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Apple fall from a height of h=2.3 m  

We need to find the impact speed of apple which can be given by using

v^2-u^2=2gh  

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

h=Displacement

Assuming initial velocity to be zero

substituting the value we get

v^2-0=2\times 9.8\times 2.3  

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.3}  

v=6.71\ m/s

One of two 25-year-old identical twins begins a trip on a spaceship traveling at 0.8 c while her twin remains on Earth. The twin
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

This equation is based on twin paradox - a phenomena where one of the twin travels to space at a speed close to speed of light and the other remains on earth. the twin from the space on return discovers that the one on earth age faster.

Solution:

t_{o} = 10 years

v = 0.8c

c = speed of light in vacuum

The problem can be solved by time dilation equation:

t = \frac{t_{o}}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}            (1)

where,

t = time observed from a different inertial frame

Now, using eqn (1), we get:

t = \frac{10}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.8c)^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

t = 16.67 years

The age of the twin on spaceship according to the one on earth = 25+16.67 =41.66 years

Frictional force is____of area of contact​
Elis [28]

Answer:

The force due to friction is generally independent of the contact area between the two surfaces. This means that even if you have two heavy objects of the same mass, where one is half as long and twice as high as the other one, they still experience the same frictional force when you drag them over the ground.

Explanation:

Independent

What is the process that changes smaller atoms into larger ones in a star
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Nuclear fusion

Explanation:

In fusion, many nuclei (the centers of atoms) combine together to make a larger one (which is a different element). ... A star's mass determines what other type of nucleosynthesis occurs in its core (or during explosive changes in its life cycle).

The velocity of the water in the pipe at right is given by V1 = 0.5t m/s and V2 = 1.0t m/s, where t is in seconds. Determine the
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

A) At point 1, local acceleration = 0.5 m/s²

At point 2, local acceleration = 1.0 m/s²

B) Average Eulerian convective acceleration over the two points in the cross section shown = 0.5 m/s²

This value is positive indicating an increase in velocity and acceleration kf the fluid as the cross sectional Area of flow reduces.

Explanation:

Local acceleration at those points is the instantaneous acceleration at those points and it is given as

a = dv/dt

At point 1, v₁ = 0.5 t

a₁ =dv₁/dt = 0.5 m/s²

At point 2, v₂ = 1.0 t

a₂ = dv₂/dt = 1.0 m/s²

b) Average Eulerian convective acceleration over the two points in the cross section shown = (change of velocity between the two points)/time

Change of velocity between the two points = v₂ - v₁ = 1.0t - 0.5t = 0.5 t

Time = t

Average acceleration = 0.5t/t = 0.5 m/s²

This value is positive indicating an increase in velocity and acceleration kf the fluid as the cross sectional Area of flow reduces.

The fictional rocket ship Adventure is measured to be 50 m long by the ship's captain inside the rocket.When the rocket moves pa
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Complete question:

Part A:) The fictional rocket ship Adventure is measured to be 50 m long by the ship's captain inside the rocket.When the rocket moves past a space dock at 0.5c , space-dock personnel measure the rocket ship to be 43.3 m long. The rocket ship Adventure travels to a star many light-years away, then turns around and returns at the same speed. When it returns to the space dock, who would have aged less: the space-dock personnel or ship's captain?

Part B: What is the momentum of a proton traveling at 0.62 c ?

Answer

a)Who would have aged less=The Captain would have aged less

b) p=3.96*10^{-19}kgm/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Length measured by captain l_c=50m

Speed of rocket past tje space dock V=0.5c

Length measured by space-dock personnel l_c=43.3m

a)

Generally time moves slower when moving at speed of light, due to time dilation or variation.

Who would have aged less=The Captain would have aged less

b)

Generally the equation for Relativistic Momentum  is mathematically given as

p=\frac{m*v}{1 - v^2/c^2}

p=\frac{1.67*10^2-27*0.62*3.0*10^8)}{\sqrt{ 1 -0.6^2}}

p=3.96*10^{-19}kgm/s
