<span>2.856s Distance traveled under constant acceleration as a function of time is given by x=(gt^2)/2 where g is the acceleration and t is time. In this case acceleration is due to gravity and is 9.81m/s^2. The distance of interest is x=40m. Substituting and solving 40=(9.81*t^2 )/ 2 80 = 9.81*t^2 8.1549 = t^2 2.856s = t</span>

H = 40 m, the height from which the ball is dropped.
m = 1 kg, the mass of the ball

Assume g = 9.8 m/s² and neglect air resistance.

The initial vertical velocity is zero.
If t = the time of flight, then
40 m = (1/2)*g*(t s)² = 0.5*9.8*t²
t² = 40/4.9 = 8.1633
t = 2.857 s

Answer:  2.9 s (nearest tenth)

What causes long sightedness?how is it corrected.
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Long sight occurs when the eyeball is too short or the lens is too thin, or both. As a result, light rays from near objects are focused behind the retina because the light rays are not converged enough. The image formed on the retina is therefore out of focus.

To correct this problem, people can wear glasses with convex lenses. Light rays from near objects are converged by the convex lenses before entering the eyes, so that light can be focused on the retina to form a sharp image. Additionally, long sight can also be corrected by surgical methods such as LASIK.

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The lift is going down with acceleration

Initial speed u = 0

Final speed v = 6 m/s

distance s = 15.25 m

acceleration a = ?

v² = u² + 2 a s

6² = 0 + 2 x a x 15.25

a = 1.18 m /s²

Elevator is going down with acceleration  .

mg - T = ma where T is tension in the cable .

722 x 9.8 - T = 722 x 1.18

7075.6 - T = 851.96

T = 6223.64 N .
