Answer: D

Reduced impact time will increase the impact force

Explanation: Collision occurs when two or more bodies collide and exert forces on each other within a short time.

If a body of mass M moving with a velocity V collide with another body, the kinetic energy of the body is equal to the work done by the body.

That is, K.E = 1/2mv^2 = F × s

Where workdone = Force × distance

Make F the subject of formula

Mv^2/2s = F

But V = distance s/time t

Substitute for V

Ms^2/2t^2s = F

Ms/2t^2 = F

From the equation above, we can deduce that F is inversely proportional to the square of time.

Therefore, the reduced impact time will increase the impact force

A package is dropped from an air balloon two times. In the first trial the distance between the balloon and the surface is Hand
enyata [817]

Answer:

<em>The final speed of the second package is twice as much as the final speed of the first package.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall Motion</u>

If an object is dropped in the air, it starts a vertical movement with an acceleration equal to g=9.8 m/s^2. The speed of the object after a time t is:

v=gt

And the distance traveled downwards is:

\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}

If we know the height at which the object was dropped, we can calculate the time it takes to reach the ground by solving the last equation for t:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

Replacing into the first equation:

\displaystyle v=g\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

Rationalizing:

\displaystyle v=\sqrt{2gy}

Let's call v1 the final speed of the package dropped from a height H. Thus:

\displaystyle v_1=\sqrt{2gH}

Let v2 be the final speed of the package dropped from a height 4H. Thus:

\displaystyle v_2=\sqrt{2g(4H)}

Taking out the square root of 4:

\displaystyle v_2=2\sqrt{2gH}

Dividing v2/v1 we can compare the final speeds:

\displaystyle v_2/v_1=\frac{2\sqrt{2gH}}{\sqrt{2gH}}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle v_2/v_1=2

The final speed of the second package is twice as much as the final speed of the first package.

The apparent height of a building 10.5 km away is 0.02 radians. What is the approximate height of the building to the nearest me
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Approximate height of the building is 23213 meters.

Explanation:

Let the height of the building be represented by h.

0.02 radians = 0.02 × \frac{180^{o} }{\pi }

                     = 0.02 x (180/\frac{22}{7})

0.02 radians  = 1.146°

10.5 km = 10500 m

Applying the trigonometric function, we have;

Tan θ = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

So that,

Tan 1.146° = \frac{h}{10500}

⇒ h = Tan 1.146° x 10500

      = 2.21074 x 10500

      = 23212.77

h = 23213 m

The approximate height of the building is 23213 m.
