A 3 kg rock sits on a 0.8 meter ledge. If it is pushed off, how fast will it be going at the bottom?
andrey2020 [161]

As long as it sits on the shelf, its potential energy
relative to the floor is . . .

   Potential energy =      (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =

                                       (3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (0.8m) = <u>23.52 joules</u> .

If it falls from the shelf and lands on the floor, then it has exactly that
same amount of energy when it hits the floor, only now the 23.52 joules
has changed to kinetic energy.

   Kinetic energy =                                          (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

                                                 23.52 joules = (1/2) x (3 kg) x (speed)²

Divide each side by  1.5 kg :     23.52 m²/s² = speed²

Take the square root of each side:    speed = √(23.52 m²/s²) =  <em>4.85 m/s </em> (rounded)

The distance between the earth and sun is 1.5 x 108 kilometers and the speed of light is 3.00 x 108 meters per second. Calculate
butalik [34]

Answer:

time = 8.3333 minutes.

Explanation:

distance between earth and sun = 1.5 * 10^{8}km

speed of light = 3* 10^{8}m/s

convert the distance unit from km to m so we can have uniform units.

distance between earth and sun = 1.5 *10^{8}*1000m

distance between earth and sun = 1.5 * 10^{11}m

speed = distance /time

time = distance / speed

time = \frac{1.5*10^{11} }{3*10^{8} }

= 0.5*10^{3}

time =500 sec

time = 500/60 minutes

time = 8.3333 minutes.
