<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)

Answer: a.

b.  

c.  

Explanation:

Scientific notation is defined as the representation of expressing the numbers that are too big or too small and are represented in the decimal form with one digit before the decimal point times 10 raise to the power.

For example : 5000 is written as

a. 10130 Pa to 2 decimal place is written as

b.  to 1 decimal place is written as

c.   to 3 decimal places is written as

If I could lift up to ten tons and I threw a ball the size of an orange but weighed a ton, to the ground, how big of an impact w
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The impact force is 98000 N.

Explanation:

mass = 10 tons

The impact force is the weight of the object.

Weight =mass x gravity

W = 10 x 1000 x 9.8

W = 98000 N

The impact force is 98000 N.

At a certain elevation, the pilot of a balloon has a mass of 120 lb and a weight of 119 lbf. What is the local acceleration of g
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

31.905 ft/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the pilot, m = 120 lb

Weight of the pilot, w = 119 lbf

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 32.05 ft/s²

Local acceleration of gravity of found by using the relation

Weight in lbf = Mass in lb * (local acceleration/32.174 lbft/s²)

119 = 120 * a/32. 174

119 * 32.174 = 120a

a = 3828.706 / 120

a = 31.905 ft/s²

Therefore, the local acceleration due to gravity at that elevation is 31.905 ft/s²

Determine whether each of the statements below is true or false, and place it in the appropriate bin. Objects with equal speeds
lisov135 [29]

Objects with equal speeds definitely have equal velocities. -- FALSE.  For equal velocities, they also have to be going in the same direction.

If you are given an object's velocity, you can definitely determine its speed. -- TRUE.  If you know the velocity, then you know both the object's speed and its direction.

If you know the distance an object travels, and the time it takes to do so, you can determine the object's velocity. -- FALSE. Knowing the distance and time, you can figure out the object's speed.  But if you don't also know the direction it's moving, then you can't say what its velocity is.

If an object moves at constant speed, it must also be moving at constant velocity. -- FALSE.  Besides constant speed, it also needs to move in a straight line to have constant velocity.  If it turns, its velocity changes, even if its speed doesn't.

If an object moves at constant velocity, it must also be moving at constant speed. -- TRUE.  Constant velocity means its speed AND its direction are not changing.

Objects with equal velocities definitely have equal speeds. -- TRUE.  If their velocities are equal, then their speeds are equal AND they're moving in the same direction.

After laboring through this one, I'm wondering if there can possibly be any more ways to say the same thing.
