The distance you free-fall from rest is D = (1/2) (g) (T²) <== memorize this
Height of the platform = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (2.4 sec)²
Height = (4.9 m/s²) (5.76 s²)
Height = (4.9/5.76) meters
Height = 28.2 meters (a VERY high platform ... about 93 ft off the water !)
Without air-resistance, your horizontal speed doesn't change. It's constant. Traveling 3.1 m/s for 2.4 sec, you cover (3.1 m/s x 2/4 s) = 7.4 m horizontally.
From what I can see it's D, I did this by simply examining the other answers and seeing that they are beneficial, so, from that information, this one must not be.
Answer:
10 newtons, because the gravitaional force willbe stronger the closer it gets.
Answer:
16.4287
Explanation:
The force and displacement are related by Hooke's law:
F = kΔx
The period of oscillation of a spring/mass system is:
T = 2π√(m/k)
First, find the value of k:
F = kΔx
78 N = k (98 m)
k = 0.796 N/m
Next, find the mass of the unknown weight.
F = kΔx
m (9.8 m/s²) = (0.796 N/m) (67 m)
m = 5.44 kg
Finally, find the period.
T = 2π√(m/k)
T = 2π√(5.44 kg / 0.796 N/m)
T = 16.4287 s
