A clam of mass 0.12 kg dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 s to hit the ground. [Neglect friction.]

1 answer:

6 0

-- The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².
So if there's no air resistance, the speed of a falling object
always increases by 9.8 m/s for every second it falls.

   Speed = (original speed) + (gravity x falling time)

-- If it has no vertical speed when it started, then at the end
of 3 seconds, its speed is

   = (0)    + (9.8 m/s² x 3 sec)

   Velocity = 29.4 m/s downward .

65. The weight of a body when totally immersed in a liquid is 4.2N if he weight of the liquid displaced is 2.5N. Find the weight

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Given, Apparent weight(W₂)=4.2N

Weight of liquid displaced (u)=2.5N

Let weight of body in air = W₁

Solution,

U=W₁-W₂

W₁=4.2=2.5=6.7N

∴Weight of body in air is 6.7N

A driver in a 2000 kg Porsche wishes to pass to pass a slow-moving school bus on a four-lane road. What is the average power in

Kryger [21]

The average power is $3.0\cdot 10^6 W$

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the work done to accelerate the car; according to the work-energy theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the car:

$W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2$

where :

$K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$ is the final kinetic energy of the car, with

m = 2000 kg is the mass of the car

v = 60 m/s is the final speed of the car

$K_i = \frac{1}{2}mu^2$ is the initial kinetic energy of the car, with

u = 30 m/s is initial speed of the car

Soolving:

$W=\frac{1}{2}(2000)(60)^2 - \frac{1}{2}(2000)(30)^2=2.7\cdot 10^6 J$

Now we can find the power required for the acceleration, which is given by

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where

t = 9 s is the time elapsed

Solving:

$P=\frac{2.7\cdot 10^6}{9}=3.0\cdot 10^6 W$

The equivalence between gravitational and inertial mass is explained in : the set of all of the events that happened on Earth

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The correct answer is theory of general relativity.

Explanation:

According to the statement of equivalence the gravitational mass force on an object standing on the surface of earth is same as the pseudo force that acts on it if it accelerated at acceleration equal to acceleration due to gravity.

According to Einestine both the forces are indistinguishable as both the forces produce same effects. Thus both are equivalent and thus gravity is a phenomenon that can be analysed in a radically different way which gives some strange results such as bending of light, existence of black holes,e.t.c
