What can cause you to observe that sone objects fall faster than others?

1 answer:

3 0

Galileo discovered that objects that are more dense, or have more mass, fall at a faster rate than less dense objects, due to this air resistance. A feather and brick dropped together. Air resistance causes the feather to fall more slowly.

You shake a bottle of soda and take off the cap. If the soda shoots out of the

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

A. 11.5 m

Explanation:

Given,

The initial velocity of the soda cap, u = 15 m/s

The soda bottle cap is projected vertically upwards,

Hence, the angle formed with the ground, Ф = 90°

The maximum height of the projectile is given by the formula,

$h_{max} =\frac{u^{2}sin^{2}\phi}{2g}$

Substituting the given values in the above equation

$h_{max} =\frac{15^{2}sin^{2}90}{2X9.8}$

= 11.5 m

Hence, the maximum height of the cap is h = 11.5 m

A 1560-kilogram truck moving with a speed of 28.0 m/s runs into the rear end of a 1070-kilogram stationary car. If the collision

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Δ KE = 249158.6 kJ

Explanation:

given data

Truck mass M = 1560 Kg

Truck initial speed, u = 28 m/s

mass of car m = 1070 Kg

initial speed of car u1 = 0 m/s

solution

first we get here final speed by using conservation of momentum that is express as

Mu = (M+m) V .......................1

put here value we get

1560 × 28 = (1560 + 1070 ) V

solve it we get

final speed V = 16.60 m/s

and

Change in kinetic energy will be here

Δ KE = $\frac{1}{2} Mu^2 - \frac{1}{2}(M+m)V^2$ .................2

put here value and we get

Δ KE = $\frac{1}{2}\times 1560\times 28^2 - \frac{1}{2}\times (1560 + 1070)\times 16.60^2$

solve it we get

Δ KE = 249158.6 kJ

What is a conservative force?

almond37 [142]

Answer:

A conservative force is a force with the property that the total work done in moving a particle between two points is independent of the path taken Equivalently if a particle travels in a closed loop the total work done by a conservative force is zero
