Between a piece of paper and a rock, which will fall the fastest and why?

Physics
1 answer:
AysviL [449]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The Rock

Explanation:

The paper is very thin and light so it has more air reisistance which will cause it to fall slower than the rock that has a larger density.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

100

Explanation:

\rho_m = Resistivity of axon

r = Radius of axon

t = Thickness of the membrane

\rho_a = Resistivity of the axoplasm

Speed of pulse is given by

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{\rho_mrt}{2\rho_a}}

So, radius is given by

r=\dfrac{2\rho_a}{\rho_mt}v^2

If radius is increased by a factor of 10 new radius will be

r_2=\dfrac{2\rho_a}{\rho_mt}(10v)^2\\\Rightarrow r_2=100\dfrac{2\rho_a}{\rho_mt}v^2\\\Rightarrow r_2=100r

So, The radius will increase by a factor of 100.

calculate the displacement and velocity of a ball 0.50 seconds after it is thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 15.0 m
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The ball will have a displacement of 0.5*15.0=7.5m after 0.5 seconds. The velocity of the ball will be 15.0 m/s, since it is not acted on by any forces except gravity (which acts in the direction opposite of the velocity).

Explanation:

We know this is the answer because, according to the kinematic equation:

v^2=u^2+2*a*d

0=15.0^2+2*(-9.8)*d

d=-7.5m

A car begins at rest (0 velocity), 5 seconds later it is travelling at 20 meters/per second. What was the acceleration of the ve
klasskru [66]

use the formula

v= u+ at

v is final velocity , u is initial velocity , a is acceleration and t is time

put the values

20 = 0+ a×5

a = 4 m/s²
