At the same moment from the top of a building 3.0 × 10 2 m tall, one rock is dropped and one is thrown downward with an initial

velocity of 26 m/s. both of them experience negligible air resistance. how much earlier does the thrown rock strike the ground?

The equation that relates distance, velocities, acceleration, and time is,
                   d = V₀t + 0.5gt²
where d is distance,
V₀ is the initial velocity,
t is time, and 
g is the acceleration due to gravity (equal to 9.8 m/s²)

(1) Dropped rock,
                  (3 x 10² m ) = 0(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from this equation is 24.73 s

(2) Thrown rock with V₀ = 26 m/s
                (3 x 10² m) = (26)(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from the equation is 5.61 s

The difference between the tim,
        difference = 24.73 s - 5.61 s
          difference = 19.12 s

Answer:

t = 5.607 sec

Explanation:

s = ut + (1/2)at²

you can figure out the time that the dropped ball to hit the ground quite easily because u = 0 m/s, therefore

s = (1/2)at²

t² =2s/a

t = sqrt(2s/a)

assuming the acceleration from gravity is 9.81 m/s²

t = sqrt(2*300m/9.81 m/s²)

t = 7.8 s

You can use the quadratic equation to find t for the thrown rock and then subtract them.  Or you can calculate the final velocity of the thrown rock with v^2 = u^2 + 2as and then use v = u + at to find the time for the thrown rock.

v² = (26 m/s)² + 2 * (9.81 m/s^2 * 300 m)

v² =6562

v = 81 m/s

v = u + at

t = (v - u)/s

t = (81 m/s - 26 m/s)/9.81 m/s^2

t = 5.607 sec

How does emission spectra occur?
Lerok [7]

The frequencies of light that an atom can emit are dependent on states the electrons can be in. When excited, an electron moves to a higher energy level or orbital. When the electron falls back to its ground level the light is emitted.

hope this helped:)

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

A. Distance over which the force is applied

Explanation:

As we know that in pulley system the mass of the car is balanced by the tension in the string

so here we will have

T = r \times F

so here in order to decrease the force needed to lift the car we have to increase Distance over which the force is applied

So here if we increase the distance over which force is applied then it will reduce the effort applied by us in this pulley system as the torque will be more if the distance is more.

Assume that the stopping distance of a van varies directly with the square of the speed. A van traveling 40 miles per hour can s
Daniel [21]

Answer:

d = 100.8 ft

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the van is 40 miles then the stopping distance is given as 70 feet

here we know that

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 ad

so here we have

0^2 - 40^2 = 2 a (70 feet)

now again if the speed is increased to 48 mph then let say the stopping distance is "d"

so we will have

0^2 - 48^2 = 2 a (d)

now divide the above two equations

\frac{40^2}{48^2} = \frac{70 feet}{d}

d = 100.8 ft

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

a. a black hole

Explanation:

X-ray emission from the central degrees of the Milky Way Bright X-ray emission traces the coherent edge brightened shell-like feature, dubbed the northern chimney, located north of Sgr A* and characterized by a diameter of about 160 pc. On the opposite side, the southern chimney appears as a bright linear feature. Bright X-ray emission is observed at high latitude

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The answer is "telescopes".

Explanation:

Throughout ancient times, astronomical observatories have indeed been available, and so many historical locations were reserved for astronomical observations. All contemporary astronomers lacked within those older telescopes were lenses until 1610. A telescope is indeed an instrument used to view far-off objects. Telescopes often are being used to look at planets and stars.
