A rock climber stands on top of a 50 m -high cliff overhanging a pool of water. He throws two stones vertically downward 1.0 s a

part and observes that they cause a single splash. The initial speed of the first stone was 2.4 m/s .
a) How long after the release of the first stone does the second stone hit the water?
b) What was the initial speed of the second stone?
c) What is the speed of the first stone as it hits the water?

Why does a hot-air balloon rise?
prohojiy [21]

Answer: The weight of the air displaced by the balloon is less than the volume of the balloon.

Explanation:

A hot air balloon is a cloth wrap that contains several thousand cubic meters of air inside (a large volume of air). The burner heats the liquid propane to a gaseous state to generate a huge flame, which can reach more than 3 meters, thus heating the air mass inside the balloon. In this way,<u> its density is modified with respect to the air that surrounds it</u>, because the hot air is lighter than the outside air (less dense), causing the balloon to rise and float.

Now, if we know that the density of a body d is directly proportional to its mass m and inversely proportional to its volume V:

d=\frac{m}{V}

We can deduce that <u>by increasing the volume of the body, its density will decrease.</u>

This is proof of <em><u>Archimedes' Principle</u></em>:  

<em>A body totally or partially immersed in a fluid at rest, experiences a vertical upward thrust equal to the mass weight of the body volume that is displaced.</em>

In this case the fluid is the air outside. So, the warm air inside the balloon, being less dense, will weigh less than the outside air and therefore will receive an upward pushing force or thrust that will make the balloon ascend.

A 35 g steel ball is held by a ceiling-mounted electromagnet 3.8 m above the floor. A compressed-air cannon sits on the floor, 4
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let v is the launch speed of the plastic ball and the angle of projection is θ.

So, in horizontal direction

v Cosθ x t = 4.8 .... (1)

In th evertical direction

1.4 = v Sin θ x t - 0.5 gt²     .... (2)

As , v Sin θ x t = 3.8      .... (3) , put in equation (2)

1.4 = 3.8 - 4.9 t²

t = 0.7 s

Put in (1) and (3)

v Cosθ x 0.7  = 4.8

v Cosθ = 6.86

and v Sinθ x 0.7 = 3.8

v Sinθ = 5.43

Now

v^{2}\left ( Sin^{2}\theta +Cos^{2}\theta  \right )=5.43^{2}+6.86^{2}

v = 8.75 m/s

A. A PH202 student lives next to a construction site and sees a crane with a wrecking ball demolish the building next door. The
netineya [11]

Answer:

The length of cable is 12.5 m

Explanation:

Since, the wrecking ball completes 1 oscillation, in the same time, as it takes for the rock to complete 5 oscillations.

Therefore,

Time Period of Wrecking Ball = 5 (Time Period of Rock)

Since,

Time Period of  Pendulum = 2π√(L/g)

Therefore,

2π√(L₁/g) = 5[2π√(L₂/g)]

√L₁ = 5√L₂

Squaring on both sides:

L₁ = 25 L₂

where,

L₁ = Length of Cable = ?

L₂ = Length of string = 0.5 m

Therefore,

L₁ = 25 (0.5 m)

<u>L₁ = 12.5 m</u>
