If a glass is knocked off of a table that is 1.4m tall, how long does it take for the glass to hit the ground?

1 answer:

3 0

H = 1.4 m, the height the glass falls.
u = 0, initial vertical velocity, because the glass is knocked off a table.

Assume g = 9.8 m/s², and ignore air resistance.
Let t = the time for the glass to hit the ground.
Then
(1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)² = (1.4 m)
4.9t² = 1.4
t² = 0.2857
t = 0.5345 s

Answer: 0.54 s (nearest hundredth)

Ber [7]

Answer: D. 1,2,3

The paper pots used in steamboat restaurants will not catch fire when in contact with the flame for the heat is conducted quickly to the water because the paper is thin and the burning temperature of the paper is much higher than the boiling point of water. Lastly, the texture of the paper is thick that it can withstand the temperature of the flame.
