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?

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)

Bad White [126]
I KNOW that you must have seen this formula before.  It gives
the distance covered in a certain time of accelerated motion:

               D  =  1/2  A  T²

     Distance covered= (1/2) (Acceleration) (Time squared) .

The question gives us the acceleration and the time.
I've got a weird idea:  Let's plug them into the formula.  OK ?

       Distance = (1/2) (10 m/s²) (10 sec)²

                       =      (5 m/s²)      (100 sec²)

                       =              500 meters  .

           Deep lake !

A particle experiences a constant acceleration for 12 second after starting from rest. If it travels a distance s1 in the first
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The last option is correct

ΔT1 = 4 sec       ΔT2 = 4 sec          ΔT3 = 4 sec

S = V0 t + 1/2 a t^2

S1 = 1/2 a t^2 = 8 a      where V0 is the speed at the start of the interval

During any interval (of 4 sec) the particle travels 1/2 a t^2 = 8 a    due to its acceleration - and you need to include the speed at the start of  the interval

S1 = 8a

S2 = 8 a + 8 a = 16 a

S3 = 16 a + 8 a = 24 a

Note: V2 = V1 + a t       for any interval

V2 - V1 = V1 + a t - V1 = a t

and a = (V2 - V1) / t = a   the speed increase is constant during the interval

In order to induce electrical energy into a conductor or generator, what three factors must be present?
salantis [7]
The electricity produced by a generator works through the concepts of the following three factors; magnetic field, voltage and current. When a conductor with current flowing in it is placed in a magnetic field, it will cause the electrons to move in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field. When working with generators, the guide for this direction is Fleming's Right Hand Rule. Since the electron move in perpendicular motion with magnetic field all the time, it would cause it to spin in a helical direction. These turns would then induce voltage and create electricity.
