On Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is (-9.8 meters per second) per second.

If the school, the roof, and the pencil are on Earth,
then after 3 seconds, the pencil's speed is

[ (-9.8 meters per second)/second ] times [ 3seconds ] = <u>-29.4 meters per second </u>

You have to use 1st equation of motion v = u +at as distance(s) is not given.....
as pencil is dropped from rest therefore u = 0m/s and accleration due to gravity is = -9.8 m/s
v = 0 - (9.8)(3)
v = -29.4 m/s

Vector A with arrow, which is directed along an x axis, is to be added to vector B with arrow, which has a magnitude of 5.5 m. T
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Magnitude of vector A = 0.904

Explanation:

Vector A , which is directed along an x axis, that is

                   \vec{A}=x_A\hat{i}

Vector B , which has a magnitude of 5.5 m

                   \vec{B}=x_B\hat{i}+y_B\hat{j}

                   \sqrt{x_{B}^{2}+y_{B}^{2}}=5.5\\\\x_{B}^{2}+y_{B}^{2}=30.25

The sum is a third vector that is directed along the y axis, with a magnitude that is 6.0 times that of vector A                    \vec{A}+\vec{B}=6x_A\hat{j}\\\\x_A\hat{i}+x_B\hat{i}+y_B\hat{j}=6x_A\hat{j}

Comparing we will get

                  x_A=-x_B\\\\y_B=6x_A

Substituting in x_{B}^{2}+y_{B}^{2}=30.25

                  \left (-x_{A} \right )^{2}+\left (6x_{A} \right )^{2}=30.25\\\\37x_{A}^2=30.25\\\\x_{A}=0.904

So we have

    \vec{A}=0.904\hat{i}

Magnitude of vector A = 0.904

How fast must a bug swim to keep up with the waves it produces? How fast must it move to produce a bow wave?
Elden [556K]

Answer:

A bug must swim as fast as the wave speed to keep up with the waves it produces. Moreso, a boat must be moving faster than the waves it creates to produce a bow wave.

A box of oranges which weighs 83 N is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0
otez555 [7]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

A box of oranges which weighs 83 N is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0.90 m/s each second. The push force has a horizontal component of 20 N and a vertical component of 25 N downward. Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    F_{1} = 20 N, F_{2} = 25 N, a = -0.9 m/s^{2}

             W = 83 N

         m = \frac{83}{9.81}

             = 8.46

Now, we will balance the forces along the y-component as follows.

       N = W + F_{2}

           = 83 + 25 = 108 N

Now, balancing the forces along the x component as follows.

       F_{1} - F_{r} = ma

        20 - F_{r} = 8.46 \times (-0.9)

             F_{r} = 7.614 N

Also, we know that relation between force and coefficient of friction is as follows.

             F_{r} = \mu \times N

          \mu = \frac{F_{r}}{N}

                    = \frac{7.614}{108}

                    = 0.0705

Thus, we can conclude that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0.0705.

Two objects attract each other gravitationally. If the distance between their centers decreases by a factor of 2, how does the g
kramer

Answer:

The gravitational force between them increases by a factor of 4

Explanation:

Gravitational force is a force of attraction between two objects with masses M and m which are separated by a distance R. It is given mathematically as:

Fg = GMm/R²

Where G = Gravitational constant.

If the distance between their centers, R, decreases by a factor of 2, then it means the new distance between their centers is:

r = R/2

Hence,the gravitational force becomes:

Fg = GMm/r²

Fg = GMm/(R/2)²

Fg = GMm/(R²/4)

Fg = 4GMm/R²

Hence,the gravitational force increases by a factor of 4.
