Answer:
h = 22.35 m
Explanation:
given,
initial speed of the rock,u = 0 m/s
length of the window,l = 2.7 m
time taken to cross the window,t = 0.129 s
Speed of the rock when it crosses the window
v = 20.93 m/s
height of the building above the window
using equation of motion
v² = u² + 2 g h
20.93² = 0² + 2 x 9.8 x h
h = 22.35 m
Hence, the height of the building above the top of window is equal to h = 22.35 m
Explanation:
a) Acceleration due to gravity
Here we need to find acceleration due to gravity of Sun,
G = 6.67259 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²
Mass of sun, M = 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg
Radius of sun, r = 6.957 x 10⁸ m
Substituting,
Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun = 274.21 m/s²
b) Acceleration due to gravity in earth = 9.81 m/s²
Ratio of gravity = 274.21/9.81 = 27.95
Weight = mg
Factor of increase in weight = 27.95
