Here's a formula that's simple and useful, and if you're really in
high school physics, I'd be surprised if you haven't see it before.
This one is so simple and useful that I'd suggest memorizing it,
so it's always in your toolbox.
This formula tells how far an object travels in how much time,
when it's accelerating:
Distance = (1/2 acceleration) x (Time²).
D = 1/2 A T²
For your student who dropped an object out of the window,
Distance = 19.6 m
Acceleration = gravity = 9.8 m/s²
D = 1/2 G T²
19.6 = 4.9 T²
Divide each side by 4.9 : 4 = T²
Square root each side: 2 = T
When an object is dropped in Earth gravity,
it takes 2 seconds to fall the first 19.6 meters.
Explanation:
3 cause the triangle method of addition are connected to tips of one vector
It depends on what type of solid
On the floor because the force from the train moving and she wouldn't be able to catch it in time
