While standing on a bridge 40.0 m above the ground, you drop a stone from rest. when the stone has fallen 3.80 m, you throw a se

cond stone straight down. what initial velocity must you give the second stone if they are both to reach the ground at the same instant? take the downward direction to be the negative direction?

Given: distance 1 d₁ = 40 m;  distance 2 d₂ = 3.8 m   g = -9.8 m/s²

 Initial Velocity Vi = 0  Final Velocity of stone 2 is unknown = ?

Total distance dₓ = d₁ - d₂  = 40 m - 3.8 m = 36.2 m

Formula: a = Vf² -  Vi²/2d   derive for Final Velocity Vf
 
acceleration is now due to gravity, therefore a = g

Vf = √2gd   Vf = √2(9.8 m/s²)(36.2 m)

Vf = 26.64 m/s  

Reason: The second stone will still start from rest.

Which is the higher temperature? (Assume temperatures to be exact numbers.)(a)1.)265°C or 265°F?2.)265°C3.)265°F 4.)They are the
vazorg [7]

Remember the following formulas to convert temperatures between Farenheit and Celsius:

\begin{gathered} \text{ Farenheit to Celsius:} \\ C=\frac{5(F-32)}{9} \\  \\ \text{ Celsius to Farenheit:} \\ F=\frac{9}{5}C+32 \end{gathered}

Convert all the temperatures to Celsius to compare them.

<h2>Part a)</h2>

Convert 265ºF to Celsius:

\begin{gathered} C=\frac{5(F-32)}{9} \\  \\ =\frac{5(265-32)}{9} \\  \\ =129.444... \end{gathered}

Then, 265ºF is equal to 129.444...ºC. Then, 265ºC is higher than 265ºF.

The correct choice is option 2) 265ºC.

Part b)

Convert 370ºF to Celsius:

\begin{gathered} C=\frac{5(F-32)}{9} \\  \\ =\frac{5(370-32)}{9} \\  \\ =187.777...ºC \end{gathered}

Then, 370ºF is equal to 187.777...ºC. Then, 200ºC is higher than 370ºF.

The correct choice is option 2) 200ºC.

Using at least 3 to 4 complete content related sentences describe the first and second postulate of special relativity.
Andrew [12]
Nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. As such, perceptions of objects and time change as they approach light speed, but the laws of physics remain consistent regardless of speed. Objects will appear shortened and time will appear to slow down around an observer approaching near light speeds, but all quantities still exist as they did before and all causality is preserved, even if observers in different points or traveling at different speeds will report different things.

What is Rest in physics ? ​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Rest is the state of an object being stationary relative to a particular frame of reference or another object. When the position of a body concerning its surroundings does not change with time, it is said to be “at rest”.
