D = (1/2)·at²
where d is the distance fallen, a is the acceleration (g in this problem), and t is the time
d = (1/2)·(9.8 m/s²)·(30 s)² = (1/2)·(9.8)·(900) m
d = 4410 m
The answer is b) 4410 m

Note: the mass of the raindrop is irrelevant since the acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass. (Galileo's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment)

Answer: Option b, 4410 meters.

Explanation: If there is no air resistance, the acceleration experienced by the raindrop is equal to the gravitational acceleration:

a = -9.8m/s^2

for the velocity, we integrate over time, and there is no constant because we don't have initial velocity.

v = - (9.8m/s^2)*t

For the position, we integrate again over time, and we add a constant of integration that will be equal to the initial height of the raindrop.

r = (-9.8m/s^2)(t^2)/2 + H

if at t= 30s the raindrop reaches the ground, we have that:

r(30) = 0 = (-4.9*900)m + H

H = 4.9*900m = 4410m

So the initial height of the raindrop s 4410 meters.

Why does it take mars over 500 days to orbit the sun?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Mar's orbital path is more than that of Earth, thus it takes more number of days to orbit around the sun.

Explanation:

Mars takes over 500 days to orbit all the way around the sun than Earth because its distance from the sun (228 million kilometers) is greater than that of Earth (150 million kilometers) which takes it 365 days.

Planets that orbit closer to the sun take shorter time to orbit around the sun because the cover a shorter orbital distance and orbit faster than those planets further from the sun.

<u>For example</u>

Using Earth's distance from the sun, 150 million kilometers and the number of days taken to orbits the sun ,365 days and the distance Mars is from the Earth, 228 million kilometers, you can approximate the time Mar takes to orbit the sun as:

Earth 150 million kilometers  = 365 days

Mars  228 million kilometers= ?

Cross product ; (228 *365) /150 =555 -----(a value closer to that in the question)

A Neglecting air resistance, a ball projected straight upward so it remains in the air for 10 seconds needs an initial speed of
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 10 sec

For first half,

We need to calculate the height

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2gh

h =\dfrac{v^2}{2g}....(I)

For second half,

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

h =ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2

h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2

t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}}

Put the value of h from equation (I)

t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times v^2}{g^2}}

t_{2}=\dfrac{v}{g}

According to question,

t_{1}+t_{2}=10

t_{1}=t_{2}

Put the value of t₁ and t₂

\dfrac{v}{g}+\dfrac{v}{g}=10

\dfrac{2v}{g}=10

v=\dfrac{10\times g}{2}

Here, g = 10

The initial velocity is

v=\dfrac{10\times10}{2}

v=50\ m/s

Hence, The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

A piece of warm concrete is placed in a cold-water tank, and energy flows between the concrete and the water. Which way does the
sammy [17]

Answer:

Heat flows from hot to cold objects. When a hot and a cold body are in thermal contact, they exchange heat energy until they reach thermal equilibrium, with the hot body cooling down and the cold body warming up. This is a natural phenomenon we experience all the time.
