Because its a vacuum, there's no air resistance, they will fall at same time
Applying gravity acceleration rule g=9.8m/s which is taken as 10m/s sometimes.

Answer:

They will both have the same acceleration

Explanation:

Because its a vacuum, which ordinarily means it will be closed (unless otherwise stated), there will be no opposing forces (like air interference) to each of there acceleration due to gravity - each of them will have an acceleration due to gravity of 9.8 m/s2 (or approximately 10 m/s2) and will hit the "ground" at the same time if "dropped" at the same time.

Here, the masses will not be considered because there are no obstructions/opposing forces.

If the window is 11 m above the ground, find the time the stone is in flight.
rjkz [21]
d=vi*t+(1/2)gt²

d=11 m
g=9.8 m/s²
vi=0 m/s

11 m=0 m/s*t+(1/2)9.8 m/s²t²
11 m=4.9 m/s²t²
t²=11 m / 4.9 m/s²
t=√(11 m / 4.9 m/s²)=1.489... s≈1.5 s

Answer: the time the sone is in flight is 1.5 s

A 5.10 kgkg watermelon is dropped from rest from the roof of a 18.5 mm-tall building and feels no appreciable air resistance.
VARVARA [1.3K]

Work done is by the change in the potential energy of the system. The work done by gravity is 924.63 J.

<h3>What is the Kinetic Energy?</h3>
  • Potential energy in physics is the energy that an item retains as a result of its position in relation to other objects, internal tensions, electric charge, or other elements.
  • The gravitational potential energy of an object, which is based on its mass and distance from another object's center of mass, the elastic potential energy of an extended spring, and the electric potential energy of an electric charge in an electric field are examples of common types of potential energy. The joule, denoted by the letter J, is the energy unit in the International System of Units (SI).

Solution:

mass = 5.10 kg

height = 18.5 mm

We know that work done by the gravity on the watermelon is the change in the potential energy of the watermelon, therefore,

Work done due to gravity = change in the potential energy of the system

W = \Delta PE

W = mg (h₀ - h₁)

W = 5.10 × 9.8 × 18.5

W = 924.63 J

An object is transported to three different planets in our solar system. Which of the following is true about that object?
Digiron [165]

<u>Answer;</u>

<em>D.  The object’s weight changes, but its mass stays the same.</em>

<u>Explanation;</u>

  • Mass is the amount of matter in a object, which is measured in kilograms. Mass of an object is measured using a beam balance. It is important to note that the mass of an object or a body remains constant, and does not vary from one place to another. For instance the mass of a person on the moon will be the same as when the person is on the earth surface.
  • Weight on the other hand is the measurement of gravitational pull of an object. weight is measured using a spring balance and measured in Newtons. Weight varies from one place to another depending on the gravitational pull of a given surface.

An RC circuit is connected across an ideal DC voltage source through an open switch. The switch is closed at time t = 0 s. Which
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

e)

Explanation:

In an RC series circuit, at any time, the sum of the voltages through the resistor and the capacitor must be constant and equal to the voltage of the DC voltage source, in order to be compliant with KVL.

At= 0, as the voltage through the capacitor can't change instantaneously, all the voltage appears through the resistor, which means that a current flows, that begins to charge the capacitor, up to a point that the voltage through the capacitor is exactly equal to the DC voltage, so no current flows in the circuit anymore, and the charge in the capacitor reaches to its maximum value.
