By equation of motion we have S = ut + 0.5 at^{2}

Where u = Initail velocity, S= dispalcement, t = time taken, a = acceleration

Here S = 3500-400 = 3100m, u = 0m/s, g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

So, 3100 = 0+0.5*9.8*t^{2}

       t^{2} = 3100/4.9

       t = \sqrt{3100/4.9}

      t = 25.15 seconds

What velocity will a freefalling object have after falling 80 meters
vovangra [49]

Answer:

129.96

At a Gravitational acceleration of 32.17405 ( which is the normal rate for a freefall) you will geta velocity of 129.96 and the time of fall will be 4.039 seconds from 80 meters.

Why is the weight of a free falling body zero? It is not, an object in free fall will still have a weight, governed by the equation W = mg, where W is the object's weight, m is the object's mass, and g is acceleration due to gravity. Weight, however, has no effect on an objects free falling speed, two identically shaped objects weighing a different amount will hit the ground at the same time.

Hope this helps!! If so please mark brainliest and rate/heart to help my account if it did!!

A loop of wire is in a magnetic field such that its axis is parallel with the field direction. Which of the following would resu
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

All the given options will result in an induced emf in the loop.

Explanation:

The induced emf in a conductor is directly proportional to the rate of change of flux.

emf = -\frac{d \phi}{dt} \\\\where;\\\\\phi \ is \ magnetic \ flux\\\\\phi = BA\ cos \theta

where;

A is the area of the loop

B is the strength of the magnetic field

θ is the angle between the loop and the magnetic field

<em>Considering option </em><em>A</em>, moving the loop outside the magnetic field will change the strength of the magnetic field and consequently result in an induced emf.

<em>Considering option </em><em>B</em>, a change in diameter of the loop, will cause a change in the magnetic flux and in turn result in an induced emf.

Option C has a similar effect with option A, thus both will result in an induced emf.

Finally, <em>considering option</em> D, spinning the loop such that its axis does not consistently line up with the magnetic field direction will<em> </em>change the angle<em> </em>between the loop and the magnetic field. This effect will also result in an induced emf.

Therefore, all the given options will result in an induced emf in the loop.
