21. A person standing 49.5m from the foot of a cliff claps his hands and hears an echo 0.3
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

330 m/s

Explanation:

The sound wave has to travel TO the cliff AND back = 2 * 49.5 = 99 m

magnitude of velocity =  distance / time = 99m / .3 s = 330 m/s

3. An object with a mass of 10 kg is moving along a horizontal surface. At a certain point it has 40 J of kinetic energy. If the
damaskus [11]

Answer: 100cm

Explanation:

The force of friction on a surface normal to gravity where µ is the coefficient of friction is

F = µmg

Where

F = the friction force

µ = coefficient of friction

m = mass of the object

g = acceleration due to gravity

Also, the Kinetic Energy of the object, E = Fs, where

E = Kinetic Energy

s = stopping distance. So that,

E = µmgs

40 J = 0.4 * 10 kg * 10 m/s² * s

40 J = 40 kgm/s² * s

s = 40 J / 40 kgm/s²

s = 1 m or 100 cm

Little Timmy wants to measure how tall his house is. He doesn’t have a tape measure but does have a stopwatch. He recruits Big B
Komok [63]

The distance covered by an object accelerating from rest is

D = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)² .

In this particular case, 'acceleration' is 9.8 m/s² ... due to gravity.

D = (1/2) · (9.8 m/s²) · (1.67 s)²

D = (4.9 m/s²) · (2.789 s²)

D =  13.67 meters

A stone is launched straight up by a slingshot. Its initial speed is 19.6 m/s, and the stone is 1.50 m above the ground when lau
arlik [135]

Answer: a) 19.21m b) 3.92secs

Explanation:

a) Maximum height reached by the object is the height reached by an object before falling freely under gravity.

Maximum height = U²/2g

U is the initial velocity = 19.6m/s

g is acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s²

Maximum Height = 19.6²/2(10)

H = 19.21m

b) The time elapsed before the stone hits the ground is the time of flight T= 2U/g

T= 2(19.6)/10

T = 39.2/10

Time elapsed is 3.92secs

A volcano erupts and launches a chunk of hot magma horizontally with a speed of 252 m/s. The magma travels a horizontal distance
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The value is v_y  =  -48.61 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The horizontal speed is  u_x  = 252 \  m/s

    The horizontal distance is  d = 1250 \ m

Generally the time taken by the hot magma in air before landing is mathematically represented as

       t = \frac{d}{u_x}

=>    t = \frac{ 1250 }{252}

=>    t = 4.96 \  s

Generally the initial vertical velocity of the magma when it was lunched is  

    u_y = 0 \ m/ s

Then the final velocity of the magma when it hits the ground is mathematically represented s

       - v_y  =  u_y + gt

Here the negative sign mean that the direction of the velocity is towards the negative y -axis

So  

        - v_y  =  48.61 \ m/s

=>     v_y  =  -48.61 \ m/s
