A boy standing on a bridge above a river throws stone A vertically upward with an initial velocity =15m/s.2 seconds later he dro

ps stone B with initial velocity=0.Both stones reach the river at the same time.
1-how many seconds does it take stone A to reach the river?
2-how high is the bridge?
3-what is the speed of stone A just before it strikes the river

I'm not sure if this is correct but it's what I'll do

This is free-fall problem.
Stone A is thrown upward, at the point it falls down to the place where it was thrown, the velocity is -15m/s.

Now I choose the bridge is the origin. From the bridge, stone A and B fall the same distance which means Ya = Yb ( vertical distance )

Ya = Vo(t + 2) + 1/2a(t+2)^2
= -15(t + 2) + 1/2(9.8)(t^2 + 4t + 4)
= -15t - 30 + 4.5(t^2 + 4t + 4)
= -15t - 30 + 4.5t^2 + 18t + 18
= 4.5t^2 +3t - 12

Yb = Vo(t) + 1/2a(t)^2
= 0 + 4.5t^2

4.5t^2 = 4.5t^2 +3t - 12
0 = 3t - 12
4 = t

Time for Stone B is 4s
Time for Stone A is 6s

The same wave travels for 2 seconds, what is its frequency?*
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

In waves distance is measured by wave length  and time is measured by frequency or period.

velocity ratio=wave length multiply by frequency.

HENCE, if the same wave travels for 2 econds its frequency will be 2Hz.

2.5 gram sample of a radioactive element was formed in a 1960 explosion of an atomic bomb at Johnson Island in the Pacific Test
kow [346]

Answer:

0.15625 grams

Explanation:

Half life: It is related to the decay of radioactive material. The duration in which  half of the material will be degraded/decayed. That means after half life 50% of the radioactive material will be left. Here the half life is 28 years.

Initial quantity of the sample: 2.5 grams.

After 28 years, the leftover quantity = 1.25 grams

After 56 years, the leftover quantity = 0.625 grams

After 84 Years, the leftover quantity = 0.3125 grams

After 112 years, the leftover quantity = 0.15625 grams
