What is the speed of an object at rest

Physics
1 answer:
sammy [17]3 years ago
4 0
The speed of an object is measured by calculating the distance it travels per unit time.
The formula in Physics for calculating speed is = distance/ time.

Since an object at rest is not covering any distance, the speed is always assumed to be 0 m/s.

A crate pushed along the floor with velocity vâ i slides a distance d after the pushing force is removed. if the mass of the cra
Alenkinab [10]
<span>d The mass is doubled which means that both the momentum and kinetic energy are also doubled. Also the normal force that's acting along with the coefficient of kinetic friction is also doubled. So the friction that's working to slow down the crate is doubled. So the crate will have double the kinetic energy that needs to be dissipated, but the rate of dissipation is also doubled, so the total time required to dissipate the kinetic energy is the same. And since both crates start out with the same velocity and since they'll lose energy (and velocity) at the same proportional rate, they'll take the same distance to slide to a stop.</span>

. A water balloon is thrown horizontally at a speed of 2.00 m/s from the roof of a building that is 6.00m above the ground. At t
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Height of building

H = 6m

Horizontal speed of first balloon

U1x = 2m/s

Second ballot is thrown straight downward at a speed of

U2y = 2m/s

Time each gallon hits the ground

Balloon 1.

Using equation of free fall

H = Uoy•t + ½gt²

Uox = 0 since the body does not have vertical component of velocity

6 = ½ × 9.8t²

6 = 4.9t²

t² = 6 / 4.9

t² = 1.224

t = √1.224

t = 1.11 seconds

For second balloon

H = Uoy•t + ½gt²

6 = 2t + ½ × 9.8t²

6 = 2t + 4.9t²

4.9t² + 2t —6 = 0

Using formula method to solve the quadratic equation

Check attachment

From the solution we see that,

t = 0.9211 and t = -1.329

We will discard the negative value of time since time can't be negative here

So the second balloon get to the ground after t ≈ 0.92 seconds

Conclusion

The water ballon that was thrown straight down at 2.00 m/s hits the ground first by 1.11 s - 0.92s = 0.19 s.

An apple falls out of a tree from a height of 2.3m. what is the impact speed of the apple
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:6.71 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Apple fall from a height of h=2.3 m  

We need to find the impact speed of apple which can be given by using

v^2-u^2=2gh  

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

h=Displacement

Assuming initial velocity to be zero

substituting the value we get

v^2-0=2\times 9.8\times 2.3  

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.3}  

v=6.71\ m/s
