A rock is thrown horizontally from a bridge with a velocity of 17.0 m/s. It takes the rock 3.0 s to strike the water below. What
1 answer:
Answer:
V= 33.98 m/s
Explanation:
Given that
Horizontal speed ,u= 17 m/s
Time taken by rockets to strike the water ,t= 3 s
We know that acceleration due to gravity ,g= 9.81 m/s²
There is no any acceleration in the horizontal direction that is why the horizontal veloity will remain constant.
In the vertical direction
vy = uy+ g t
Initial velocity in vertical direction is 0 m/s.
vy= 0+ 9.81 x 3
vy = 29.43 m/s
The resultant velocity
V= 33.98 m/s

Since the temperature of the gas remains constant in the process, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas transformation at constant temperature, the product between the gas pressure and its volume is constant:
which can also be rewritten as
(1)
where the labels 1 and 2 mark the initial and final conditions of the gas.
In our problem,
, 
and 
, so the final pressure of the gas can be found by re-arranging eq.(1):
Therefore the correct answer is
