A stone is thrown at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal from the top edge of a cliff with an initial speed of 12 m/s. A

stop watch measures the stone’s trajectory time from top of cliff to bottom to be 4.8s. What is the height of the cliff?

v = initial velocity of launch of the stone = 12 m/s

θ = angle of the velocity from the horizontal = 30

Consider the motion of the stone along the vertical direction taking upward direction as positive and down direction as negative.

v₀ = initial velocity along vertical direction = v Sinθ = 12 Sin30 = 6 m/s

a = acceleration of the stone = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel = 4.8 s

Y = vertical displacement of stone = vertical height of the cliff = ?

using the kinematics equation

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

inserting the values

Y = 6 (4.8) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (4.8)²

Y = - 84.1 m

hence the height of the cliff comes out to be 84.1 m

a force is applied to a box of 10.0 kg for 4.0 s. the box goes from rest to 25 m/s in that time. What is the magnitude of that f
Paul [167]

Given:

m(mass of the box)=10 Kg

t(time of impact)=4 sec

u(initial velocity)=0.(as the body is initially at rest).

v(final velocity)=25m/s

Now we know that

v=u+at

Where v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration acting on the body

t is the time of impact

Substituting these values we get

25=0+a x 4

4a=25

a=6.25m/s^2

Now we also know that

F=mxa

F=10 x6.25

F=62.5N

Jessica has a mass of 55kg she sleds down a hill that has a slope of 32 degrees. what is the component of her weight that is alo
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

W = 285.62 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Jessica is 55 kg

Slope of the hill is 32 degrees

We need to find the component of her weight that is along her direction of motion.

The component along her direction of motion is shown in attached figure. It means

W_y=mg\sin\theta\\\\W_y=55\times 9.8\times \sin(32)\\\\W_y=285.62\ N

So, the component of her weight that is along her direction of motion is 285.62 N.
