Describe how mass affects the time required for an object to reach the ground from a given drop height.

1 answer:

6 0

The speed of a falling object is not directly affected by mass. Air resistance is the deciding factor in the time is takes for an object to reach the ground. Two objects of different mass will accelerate at the same rate. This was discovered by Galileo. Newton's second law states that F=ma. This means that if both accelerate at the same rate, then the force acting on the objects must be different, and the greater the mass, the greater the force of gravity that is acting upon the object.

A stone is dropped from rest from the top of a cliff into a pond below. If its initial height is 10 m, what is its speed when it

Brut [27]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the stone is a free fall motion, so an accelerated motion with constant acceleration g = 9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. So, we can use the following SUVAT equation:

$v^2 -u^2 = 2gh$

where

v is the final speed of the stone as it reaches the water

u = 0 is the initial speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

h = 10 m is the distance covered by the stone

Solving for v, we find

$v=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{0+2(9.8 m/s^2)(10 m)}=14 m/s$

Which of the following does NOT represent Newton’s second law? Question 20 options: a = m/Fnet m = Fnet/a Fnet = ma a = Fnet/m

Natali [406]

Answer:

a=m/f is not an equation under newton's second law

Explanation:

newton's second law of motion is represented using: f=ma

where a=v-u/t

therefore it becomes,f=m(v-u)/t

from f=ma,

a will become f/m,

m will become f/a
