A pencil is rolled off a table of height 0.92 m. If it has horizontal speed pf 1.4 m/s, how long does it take the pencil to reac
Alenkasestr [34]

The distance an object falls, from rest, in gravity is

                         D  =  (1/2) (G) (T²)

                        'T' is the number seconds it falls.

In this problem,

                         0.92 meter = (1/2) (9.8) (T²)

Divide each side by  4.9 :   0.92 / 4.9 = T²

Take the square root
of each side:                          √(0.92/4.9) = T

                                                  0.433 sec = T    

The horizontal speed doesn't make a bit of difference in
how long it takes to reach the floor.  BUT ... if you want to
know how far from the table the pencil lands, you can find
that with the horizontal speed.

The pencil is in the air for  0.433 second.
In that time, it travels
                                   (0.433s) x (1.4 m/s) = 0.606 meter

from the edge of the table.

DochEvi [55]
In Rutherford's gold foil experiment, some of the positive particles would pass through the foil and some would bounce off. This led to a new theory that all of the positive subatomic particles were in the center of the atom instead of evenly spread throughout.

A 90 kg ice skater moving at 12.0 m/s on the ice encounters a region of roughed up ice with a coefficient of kinetic friction of
balandron [24]

Answer:

The skater covers a distance of <u>15 m</u> before stopping.

Explanation:

Let the distance traveled before stopping be 'd' m.

Given:

Mass of the skater (m) = 90 kg

Initial velocity of the skater (u) = 12.0 m/s

Final velocity of the skater (v) = 0 m/s (Stops finally)

Coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) = 0.490

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Now, we know that, from work-energy theorem, the work done by the net force on a body is equal to the change in its kinetic energy.

Here, the net force acting on the skater is only frictional force which acts in the direction opposite to motion.

Frictional force is given as:

f=\mu N

Where, 'N' is the normal force acting on the skater. As there is no vertical motion, N=mg

∴ f=\mu mg=0.490\times 90\times 9.8=432.18\ N

Now, work done by friction is a negative work as friction and displacement are in opposite direction and is given as:

W=-fd=-432.18d

Now, change in kinetic energy is given as:

\Delta K=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\\\Delta K=\frac{1}{2}\times 90(0-12^2)\\\\\Delta K=45\times (-144)=-6480\ J

Therefore, from work-energy theorem,

W=\Delta K\\\\-432.18d=6480\\\\d=\frac{6480}{432.18}\\\\d=14.99\approx 15\ m

Hence, the skater covers a distance of 15 m before stopping.

Compute your average velocity in the following two cases: (a) You walk 50.2 m at a speed of 2.21 m/s and then run 50.2 m at a sp
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

a) 2.87 m/s

b) 3.23 m/s

Explanation:

The avergare velocity can be found dividing the length traveled d by the total time t.

a)

For the first part we easily know the total traveled length which is:

d = 50.2 m + 50.2 m = 100.4 m

The time can be found dividing the distance by the velocity:

t1 = 50.2 m / 2.21 m/s = 22.7149 s

t2 = 50.2 m / 4.11 m/s = 12.2141 s

t = t1 +t2 = 34.9290 s

Therefore, the average velocity is:

v = d/t =2.87 m/s

b)

Here we can easily know the total time:

t = 1 min + 1.16 min = 129.6 s

Now the distance wil be found multiplying each velocity by the time it has travelled:

d1 = 2.21 m/s * 60 s = 132.6 m

d2 = 4.11 m/s *(1.16 * 60 s) = 286.056 m

d = 418.656 m

Therefore, the average velocity is:

v = d/t =3.23 m/s
