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!!

Set the radius to 2.0 m and the velocity to 1.0 m/s. Keeping the radius the same, record the magnitude of centripetal accelerati
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a=4\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius, r = 2 m

Velocity, v = 1 m/s

We need to find the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration. The formula for the centripetal acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}\\\\a=\dfrac{(2)^2}{1}\\\\=4\ m/s^2

So, the magnitude of centripetal acceleration is 4\ m/s^2.

Two children are pulling on opposite sides of a blanket. The brother is pulling with a force of 3 N. The sister is pulling with
Citrus2011 [14]
Let F1=Force exerted by the brother (+F1)
F1= Force exerted by the sister (-F2)

Fnet=(+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet= (+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet=F1 - F2
Fnet= (+3N)+(-5N)
Fnet= -2N

-F

MAVERICK [17]

A textbook would hit the ground first


Factors:

-Textbook weighs most

-Pillow is flat and fluffy not very aerodynamic) also is very light

-Paper airplane will glide to the ground do to its wings and will hit the ground last
