how long does it take an acorn to hit the ground after dropping from the branch of a tree 12.5 m high?

1 answer:

6 0

The right formula to use is: T^2= 2d/g
where T= time taken
d = 12.5m
g = is a constant and is equal to 9.8m/s
therefore, T^2 = 2*12.5/9.8
Using the values above, the time taken for the acorn to reach the ground is 1.59 second
T = 1.59 S

A 620 kg car is traveling at 24 m/s on horizontal ground when it starts up a 30 m high hill. The engine can produce up to 144,00

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the car at the top of the hill is 140280 Joules.

Explanation:

Mass of the car, m = 620 kg

Speed of the car, v = 24 m/s

Height of the hill, h = 30 m

The engine can produce up to 144,000 J of work during that time, W = 144,000 J

We need to find the kinetic energy of the car at the top of the hill. It can be calculated using conservation of mechanical energy as :

$(mgh+K)-\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=144000$

$(620\times 9.8\times 30+K)-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 620\times (24)^2=144000$

$620\times9.8\times30+K=322560$

$K=140280\ J$

So, the kinetic energy of the car at the top of the hill is 140280 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

During a tug-of-war, team A pulls on team B by applying a force of 1550 N to the rope between them. The rope remains parallel to

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

3565 J

Explanation:

F = Force applied = 1550 N

s = Displacement caused by the applied force = 2.3 m

$\theta$ = Angle at which the force is applied = 0°

When we multiply force, displacement and the angle at which the force is applied we get work

Work done is given by

$W=Fscos\theta\\\Rightarrow W=1550\times 2.3\times cos 0\\\Rightarrow W=3565\ J$

The work done by team A is 3565 J

The balloon started to inflate which suggests that the chemical created a reaction and since the chemical couldn't go into the air or out of the flask it created the gas inside which inflated the balloon. Also you can see little bubbles forming and going to the surface which suggests a gas was produced, I hope this made sense lol XD
