physics a flower pot falls from a windowsill 25.0m above the sidewalk. how much time does a passerby on the sidewalk below have

to move out of the way before the flowerpot hits the ground? i need help!!! i suck at physics

v_f^2 = v_0^2 + 2*a*d
Since the flower pot is dropped, it has an initial velocity of zero. Also the flower pot accelerates due to gravity.

so

v_f = \sqrt{2*g*d}=\sqrt{2*9.81*25.0}

What do astronomers use in addition to parallax to find the actual distance of stars that are close to Earth?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

trigonometry (guessing)

Explanation:

ellipse: is the shape of an orbit : looks like an oval

periapsis : shortest distance between something like the moon and the planet its orbiting around like the earth

parallax is triangulation. like how gps works. looking at a star one day and then looking at it again 6 months later, an astronomer can see a difference in the viewing angle for the star. With trigonometry, the different angles yield a distance. This technique works for stars within about 400 light years of earth

https://science.howstuffworks.com/question224.htm

By comparing the intrinsic brightness to the star's apparent brightness we can calculate the distance of stars

1/r^2 rule states that the apparent brightness of a light source is proportional to the square of its distance.Jan 11, 2022

https://www.space.com/30417-parallax.html

alternative distance measurement for stars used by most astronomers is the parsec. A star with a parallax angle of 1 arcsecond has a distance of 1 parsec, or 1 parsec per arcsecond of parallax, which is about 3.26 light years

A soft tennis ball is dropped onto a hard floor from a height of 1.50 m and rebounds to a height of 1.10 m. (a) Calculate its ve
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

(a)   v = 5.42m/s

(b)   vo = 4.64m/s

(c)   a = 2874.28m/s^2

(d)   Δy = 5.11*10^-3m

Explanation:

(a) The velocity of the ball before it hits the floor is given by:

v=\sqrt{2gh}        (1)

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

h: height where the ball falls down = 1.50m

v=\sqrt{2(9.8m/s^2)(1.50m)}=5.42\frac{m}{s}

The speed of the ball is 5.42m/s

(b) To calculate the velocity of the ball, after it leaves the floor, you use the information of the maximum height reached by the ball after it leaves the floor.

You use the following formula:

h_{max}=\frac{v_o^2}{2g}       (2)

vo: velocity of the ball where it starts its motion upward

You solve for vo and replace the values of the parameters:

v_o=\sqrt{2gh_{max}}=\sqrt{2(9.8m/s^2)(1.10m)}=4.64\frac{m}{s}

The velocity of the ball is 4.64m/s

(c) The acceleration is given by:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{v_o-v}{3.50*10^{-3}s}=\frac{4.64m/s-(-5.42m)/s}{3.50*10^{-3}s}=2874.285\frac{m}{s^2}

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{v_o-v}{3.50*10^{-3}s}=\frac{4.64m/s-5.42m/s}{3.50*10^{-3}s}=-222.85\frac{m}{s^2}

The acceleration of the ball is 2874.28/s^2

(d) The compression of the ball is:

\Deta y=\frac{v^2}{2(a)}=\frac{(5.42m/s)^2}{2(2874.28m/s^2)}=5.11*10^{-3}m

THe compression of the ball when it strikes the floor is 5.11*10^-3m

Can anyone help me with this question please​
JulsSmile [24]

Explanation:

V=u+at

where,

v=final speed

u=initial speed,(starting speed)

a=acceleration

t=time

  1. v=u+at = 6=2+a*2

6=2+2a

2a=6-2

2a=4

a=4/2 = 2

a =2

2. to find time taken

v=u+at

25=5*2t

2t=25-5

2t=20

t=20/2

t=10sec

3. finding final speed

v=u+at

v=4+10*2

=4+20

v=24m/sec

5.v=u+at

=5+8*10

=5+80

V=85m/sev

6. v=u+at

8=u+4*2

8=u+8

U=8/8

u=1

these are your missing values

The coefficient of kinetic friction between a suitcase and the floor is 0.272. You may want to review (Pages 196 - 203) . Part A
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The work required to push will be equal to work done by friction . Let  d be the displacement required .

force of friction = mg x μ where m is mass of the suitcase , μ be the coefficient of friction

work done by force of friction

mg x μ x d   = 660

80 x 9.8 x .272 x d = 660

d = 3 .1 m .
