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

A bus initially moving at 20 m/s with an acceleration of -4m/s² for 5
Alborosie

Answer:

50m; 0m/s.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 20m/s

Acceleration, a = - 4m/s²

Time, t = 5secs

To find the displacement, we would use the second equation of motion;

S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

S =20*5 + \frac{1}{2}*(-4)*5^{2}

S =100 + (-2)*25

S =100 - 50

S = 50m

Next, to find the final velocity, we would use the third equation of motion;

V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS

Where;

  • V represents the final velocity measured in meter per seconds.
  • U represents the initial velocity measured in meter per seconds.
  • a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.

<em>Substituting into the equation, we have;</em>

V^{2} = 20^{2} + 2(-4)*50

V^{2} = 400 - 400

V^{2} = 0

V = 0m/s

<em>Therefore, the displacement of the bus is 50m and its final velocity is 0m/s.</em>

Answer: Velocity=8.26m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration=Finial velocity (V) - Initial velocity (u) ÷ Time

that is, a=v-u/t

a=1.2m/s², v=?, u=5.5m/s, t=2.3s

From a=v-u/t, make v the subject of the formula

v=at + u

v=(1.2* 2.3) + 5.5

v=2.76+5.5

v=8.26m/s

rodikova [14]

Answer:

11250 seconds or 187.5 mins

Explanation:

The formula to be used here is that of speed.

Speed (in m/s) = distance (meter) ÷ time (secs)

The speed provided is 32 meters per second

The distance provided will have to be converted to meters; 360 km = 360 × 1000 = 360000 meters

Thus,

32 = 360000 ÷ time

time = 360000 ÷ 32

time = 11250 seconds or 187.5 mins

It will take Naomi 11250 seconds to get to New York
