Ok so this is simple projectile motion problem.

if we have an object falling in free fall it is subject to gravity of -9.80m/s^2

so it says it takes 6 sec to fall and we know initial velocity was zero so we know that h=vt+1/2gt^2 so we get h=0+1/2*9.80*6^2 = 176.4m 

so solving for final speed we get KE=PE = 1/2mv^2=mgh = 1/2v^2=gh so 
v=sqrt(2*g*h) = sqrt(2*9.8*176.4m) = 58.8m/s final speed when it hits the ground


hope this helps you! Thanks!!

Question 7 (2 points)
DiKsa [7]
This has to do with independent and dependent variables. The independent variable is what affects the dependant variable, so the question is, does a students mark on a test affect their hours of sleep or does their hours of sleep affect their test results? Which one makes more sense? I would say the latter.

Suppose a ray of light traveling in a material with an index of refraction n a reaches an interface with a material having an in
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: C and D

Explanation: One of the first rule for total internal reflection to occur is that the ray must move from a dense to a less dense medium, hence refractive index of medium a must be greater than that of b.

When a ray moves from a dense to a less dense medium, the refracted ray moves away from the normal thus increasing the size of the angle of refraction (total internal refraction occurs when the angle of refraction is 90° and the angle of incidence at this point is known as the critical angle), hence the angle of incidence must be greater than the critical angle.

These points verifies option C and D

A string, stretched between two fixed posts, forms standing-wave resonances at 325 Hz and 390 Hz. What is the largest possible v
Pavel [41]

Answer:

65

Explanation:

The resonant frequencies for a fixed string is given by the formula  nv/(2L).  

Where n is the multiple .

v is speed in m/s .

The difference between any two resonant frequencies is given by v/(2L)= fn+1 – fn

fundamental frequency means n=1

i.e  fn+1 – fn = 390 -325

                      =  65
