If a marble is released from a height of 1955 cm, how long would it take to hit the ground?

Physics

Morgarella [4.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

1.997s = 2.0s

Explanation:

From equation of motion,

S = ut + 1/2 gt²

u = 0 m/s

t = ?

g = 9.8 m/s²

S = 1955cm = 19.55m

19.55 = 0 + 1/2 * 9.8 * t²

19.55 * 2 = 9.8t²

t² = 19.55 * 2 / 9.8

t² = 3.987

t = (3.987)^½ (take the square root of both sides)

t = 1.997s = 2.0s

A football is thrown due north across a 40 meter river and it takes 2 seconds to cover that distance.
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

I. Speed = 20m/s

II. Velocity = 20m/s due North.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Distance = 40m

Time = 2secs

To find the speed;

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Speed = \frac{40}{2}

<em>Speed = 20m/s.</em>

In physics, we use the same formula for calculating speed and velocity. The only difference is that speed is a scalar quantity and as such has magnitude but no direction while velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

Velocity = \frac{distance}{time}

<em>Therefore, the velocity is 20m/s due North</em>.

A rock, with a density of 3.55 g/cm^3 and a volume of 470 cm^3, is thrown in a lake. a) What is the weight of the rock out of th
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

a) Weight of the rock out of the water = 16.37 N

b) Buoyancy force = 4.61 N

c) Mass of the water displaced = 0.47 kg

d) Weight of rock under water = 11.76 N

Explanation:

a) Mass of the rock out of the water = Volume x Density

   Volume = 470 cm³

   Density = 3.55 g/cm³

   Mass = 470 x 3.55 = 1668.5 g = 1.6685 kg

   Weight of the rock out of the water = 1.6685 x 9.81 = 16.37 N

b) Buoyancy force = Volume x Density of liquid x Acceleration due to gravity.

   Volume = 470 cm³

   Density of liquid = 1 g/cm³

   \texttt{Buoyancy force}= \frac{470\times 1\times 9.81}{1000} = 4.61 N

c) Mass of the water displaced = Volume of body x Density of liquid

   Mass of the water displaced = 470 x 1 = 470 g = 0.47 kg

d) Weight of rock under water = Weight of the rock out of the water - Buoyancy force

   Weight of rock under water = 16.37 - 4.61  =11.76 N

26. The equation E=hf describes the energy of each photon in a beam of light. If Planck’s constant, h, were larger, would photon
Elenna [48]
The equation of the energy of a photon is E=h*f.

If we increase the Planck's constant h, the energy would increase. 

For example, lets double the value of Planck's constant and name it H:

H=2*h. Now lets put that into the equation for energy that we will call E₂:

E₂=H*f=2*h*f=2*E. 

So we can clearly see that E₂=2*E or that if we double Planck's constant, the energy also doubles.
