An object falls from rest on a high tower and takes 5.0 s to hit the ground. Calculate the object's position from the top of the
Lena [83]

Answer:

After 1 sec = 4.9 m

After 2 sec = 19.6 m

After 3 sec = 44.1 m

After 4 sec =  78.4 m

After 5 sec = 122.5 m

Explanation:

After 1 sec:

<em>u=0m/s   t=1 s  a=9.8m/s²</em>

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(1) + (1/2)(9.8)(1²) = 4.9m

After 2 sec:

<em>u=0m/s   t=2 s  a=9.8m/s²</em>

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(2) + (1/2)(9.8)(2²) = 19.6m

After 3 sec:

<em>u=0m/s   t=3 s  a=9.8m/s²</em>

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(3) + (1/2)(9.8)(3²) = 44.1m

After 4 sec:

<em>u=0m/s   t=4 s  a=9.8m/s²</em>

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(4) + (1/2)(9.8)(4²) = 78.4m

After 5 sec:

<em>u=0m/s   t=5 s  a=9.8m/s²</em>

s = ut + (1/2)at²

=0(5) + (1/2)(9.8)(5²) = 122.5m

An organism that obtains organic food molecules by eating other organisms or their by-products
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

heterotrophs

Explanation:

According to the parameters established by biology, all living beings that require others to feed themselves are considered heterotrophs, that is, they are not able to produce their food within their organism but rather they must consume elements of nature already constituted as food, already synthesized by other organisms. Among the most prominent heterotrophs, all animals, bacteria and humans stand out.

The term heterotroph comes from the Greek, language in which the prefix hetero means different and trophies means food. In this way, the heterotroph is one that feeds on elements other than one, which takes elements from nature, from the surrounding space to feed. While autotrophic beings have the ability to synthesize inorganic elements such as light, water, carbon dioxide and convert them into food; Heterotrophic beings do not have that capacity, so they must consume plants (in the case that they are herbivores) or animals that have already consumed those plants (that is, in the case that they are carnivorous). In other words, animals and humans always need to feed on other living beings, they could never do so only from inorganic elements such as water.

- What are (a) the x component, (b) the y component, and (c) the z component of r = a - b +c if a= 7.8 + 6.6 - 7.1 , b= -2.9 + 7
frez [133]

Answer:

Explanation:

a= 7.8i + 6.6j - 7.1k

b=   -2.9 i+ 7.4 j+ 3.9k , and

c = 7.6i + 8.8j + 2.2k

r = a - b +c

=7.8i + 6.6j - 7.1k - ( -2.9i + 7.4j+ 3.9k )+ ( 7.6i + 8.8j + 2.2k)

= 7.8i + 6.6j - 7.1k +2.9i - 7.4j- 3.9k )+  7.6i + 8.8j + 2.2k

= 18.3 i +18.3 j - k

the angle between r and the positive z axis.

cosθ = 18.3 / √18.3² +18.3² +1

the angle between r and the positive z axis.

= 18.3 / 25.75

cos θ= .71

Suppose that an asteroid traveling straight toward the center of the earth were to collide with our planet at the equator and bu
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

\frac{1}{10}M

Explanation:

To apply the concept of <u>angular momentum conservation</u>, there should be no external torque before and after

As the <u>asteroid is travelling directly towards the center of the Earth</u>, after impact ,it <u>does not impose any torque on earth's rotation,</u> So angular momentum of earth is conserved

⇒I_{1} \times W_{1} =I_{2} \times W_{2}

  • I_{1} is the moment of interia of earth before impact
  • W_{1} is the angular velocity of earth about an axis passing through the center of earth before impact
  • I_{2} is moment of interia of earth and asteroid system
  • W_{2} is the angular velocity of earth and asteroid system about the same axis

let  W_{1}=W

since \text{Time period of rotation}∝\frac{1}{\text{Angular velocity}}

⇒ if time period is to increase by 25%, which is \frac{5}{4} times, the angular velocity decreases 25% which is \frac{4}{5}  times

therefore W_{1} = \frac{4}{5} \times W_{1}

I_{1}=\frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2}(moment of inertia of solid sphere)

where M is mass of earth

           R is radius of earth

I_{2}=\frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2}+M_{1}\times R^{2}

(As given asteroid is very small compared to earth, we assume it be a particle compared to earth, therefore by parallel axis theorem we find its moment of inertia with respect to axis)

where M_{1} is mass of asteroid

⇒ \frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2} \times W_{1}=}(\frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2}+ M_{1}\times R^{2})\times(\frac{4}{5} \times W_{1})

\frac{1}{2} \times M\times R^{2}= (\frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2}+ M_{1}\times R^{2})

M_{1}\times R^{2}= \frac{1}{10} \times M\times R^{2}

⇒M_{1}=}\frac{1}{10} \times M
