Let h = the distance from the edge of the wall to the water surface (m).

Use g = 9.8 m/s² and neglect air resistance.

The initial vertical velocity of the pebble is zero.
Because the pebble hits the surface of the water after 1.5 s, therefore
h = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(1.5 s)² = 11.025 m

Answer:  11.025 m

Answer: 11.025

Explanation:

Let h = the distance from the edge of the wall to the water surface (m).

Use g = 9.8 m/s² and neglect air resistance.

The initial vertical velocity of the pebble is zero.

Because the pebble hits the surface of the water after 1.5 s, therefore

h = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(1.5 s)² = 11.025 m

the object on the right gained mass so that it had as much mass as the object on the left, how would the gravitational force bet
kherson [118]

The gravitational force between the objects A. It would increase.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m_1,m_2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

In this problem, we are told that one of the object (the one on the right) gains mass: this means that, for instance, the value of m_2 increases. We can see from the equation that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the masses: therefore, if one of the masses increases (while the distance between the two objects remains constant), it means that the force also increases.

Therefore, the correct answer is

A. It would increase.

What is the difference between real and apparent weightlessness?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

In space we feel weightlessness because the earth's gravity has less effect on us. The Earth's gravitational attraction at those altitudes is only about 11% less than it is at the Earth's surface. If you had a ladder that could reach as high as the shuttle's orbit, your weight would be 11% less at the top.

Explanation:

Hope this helps:)

Question 2.
choli [55]

Explanation:

1 inch = 25.4 mm

1 foot = 12 inches

1 mile = 5260 feet

1 cm = 0.01 m or 10 mm

Now Sammy's height is 5 feet and 5.3 inches.

(a) We need to find Sammy's height in inches.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

5 feet = 5 × 12 inches = 60 inches

Now, 5 feet and 5.3 inches = 60 inches + 5.3 inches = 65.3 inches

Sammy's height is 65.3 inches.

(b) We need to find Sammy's height in feet.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

1\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{1}{12}\ \text{feet}

So,

5.3\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{5.3}{12}\ \text{feet}=0.4416\ \text{feet}

5 feet and 5.3 inches = 5 feet + 0.4416 feet = 5.44 feet

Sammy's height is 5.44 feet.

A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coas
Pavel [41]

Complete question is:

A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coast in neutral so as to just reach the top of the 150 m high hill at B with vB = 0 m/s. Neglect friction.

Answer:

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

car's mass, m = 1200 kg

h_A = 100 m

h_B = 150 m

v_B = 0 m/s

From law of conservation of energy,

the distance from point A to B is;

h = 150m - 100 m = 50 m

From Newton's equations of motion;

v² = u² + 2gh

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² + (-2gh)

(negative next to g because it's going against gravity)

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² - (2gh)

Plugging in the relevant values;

0² = (V_A)² - 2(9.81 × 50)

(V_A) = √981

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s
