The parcel will undergo projectile motion, which means that it will have motion in both the horizontal and vertical direction.
First, we determine how long the parcel will fall using:
s = ut + 1/2 at²
where s will be the height, u is the initial vertical velocity of the parcel (0), t is the time of fall and a is the acceleration due to gravity.
5.5 = (0)(t) + 1/2 (9.81)(t)²
t = 1.06 seconds
A
The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is
directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in
the form of:
d = k t^2
where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs /
s^2
<span>Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t
= 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:</span>
2 = k (2)^2
k = 2 / 4
k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2
The equation becomes:
d = 0.5 t^2
Now solving for d when t = 4:
d = 0.5 (4)^2
d = 0.5 * 16
<span>d = 8 furlongs</span>
<span>
</span>
<span>It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.</span>

Answer:
Increase in the temperature of water would be 0.9 degree C
Explanation:
As we know by energy conservation
Change in the gravitational potential energy of the cylinder = increase in the thermal energy of the water
Here we know that the gravitational potential energy of the cylinder is given as
here we have
h = 300 m
now we can say
now if the cylinder falls from height h = 100 m
then we have
now from above two equations
