A stone is dropped from the upper observation deck of a tower, 900 m above the ground. (assume g = 9.8 m/s2.) (a) find the dista

The original vertical velocity = 0 (because the stone was dropped).
Assume that air resistance may be ignored.

Let x = the distance the stone drops in time t.
Then
x = 0*t + (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)²
   = 4.9t² m

The height of the stone above ground is
h(t) = 900 - 4.9t² m

Answer: h(t) = 900 - 4.9t²

Assume that the solar radiation incident on Earth is 1330 W/m2 (at the top of the atmosphere). Find the total power radiated by
Temka [501]

Answer:

The total power radiated by the sun is 3.71×10^26W

Explanation:

The Earth is spherical in shape

Therefore, Area = 4πr^2 = 4×3.143×(1.489×10^11)^2 = 2.79×10^23m^2

Power radiated by the Sun = solar radiation on Earth × Area = 1330W/m^2 × 2.79×10^23m^2 = 3.71×10^26W

A footballer kicks a ball at angle teta to horizontal with some initial velocity a) what are the two types of independent motion
Nezavi [6.7K]

a) The motion along the vertical direction and the motion along the horizontal direction.

b) The object remains in the air for a time period of 2usin(θ)/g.

Any object that is thrown in the air when gravity is acting on it is called a projectile. The motion of this projectile is called projectile motion.

When the projectile is thrown in the air at some angle θ, then there are two independent motions taking place at the same time. First is the component of motion along the vertical direction along which gravity acts. Second is the component of motion along the horizontal direction along which the object moves with a constant velocity. No force acts along the horizontal direction. The horizontal motion does not affect the vertical motion and the converse is also true. So these are independent of each other.

The time of flight is the time during which a projectile remains in the air. This time of flight is calculated using the formula,

T=2usin(θ)/g

where T is the time of flight, u is the initial velocity and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Hence, the object remains in the air for a time period of 2usin(θ)/g.

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their breeding grounds. Starting downstream, 2.33 m away from a waterfall 0.488 m in heigh
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

5.68 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the salmon is the same as a projectile: it is launched with an initial speed u at an angle of \theta=38^{\circ} above the horizontal.

The motion of the salmon consists of two indipendent motion:

- Along the horizontal direction, it is a uniform motion with constant velocity

v_x = u cos \theta

So that the distance travelled is

d=v_x t = u cos \theta t (1)

- Along the vertical direction, it is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration downward, so the vertical displacement is

y = u sin \theta t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2 (2)

where g is the acceleration of gravity.

We know the following:

- The horizontal distance travelled by the salmon to reach the waterfall is

d = 2.33 m

- The vertical distance travelled is the height of the waterfall,

y = 0.488 m

From (1) we get:

t=\frac{d}{u cos \theta}

And substituting into (2), we can solve the equation to find t, the time at which the salmon reaches the waterfall:

y = u sin \theta \frac{d}{u cos \theta} - \frac{1}{2}gt^2 = d tan \theta - \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2(d tan \theta - y)}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(2.33 tan 38^{\circ}-0.488)}{9.81}}=0.521 s

And then, we can use eq.(1) again to find the initial speed, u:

u=\frac{d}{cos \theta t}=\frac{2.33}{cos(38^{\circ})(0.521)}=5.68 m/s
