What are the functions of free falling?

Physics
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

In Newtonian physics, free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it. In the context of general relativity, where gravitation is reduced to a space-time curvature, a body in free fall has no force acting on it.

A toy rocket launcher can project a toy rocket at a speed as high as 35.0 m/s.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

(a) 62.5 m

(b) 7.14 s

Explanation:

initial speed, u = 35 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s^2

(a) Let the rocket raises upto height h and at maximum height the speed is zero.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

0^{2}=35^{2}- 2 \times 9.8 \times h

h = 62.5 m

Thus, the rocket goes upto a height of 62.5 m.

(b) Let the rocket takes time t to reach to maximum height.

By use of first equation of motion

v = u + at

0 = 35 - 9.8 t

t = 3.57 s

The total time spent by the rocket in air = 2 t = 2 x 3.57 = 7.14 second.

What is the bouncing of light when it changes media
matrenka [14]

When light passes from one medium to another, part of it continues on
into the new medium, while the rest of it bounces away from the boundary,
back into the first medium.

The part of the light that continues on into the new medium is <em>transmitted</em>
light.  Its forward progress at any point in its journey is <em>transmission</em>. 

Its direction usually changes as it crosses the boundary.  The bending is <em>
refraction</em>
.

The part of the light that bounces away from the boundary and heads back
into the first medium is <em>reflected</em> light.  The process of bouncing is <em>reflection</em>.

A toboggan approaches a snowy hill moving at 11.7 m/s. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the snow and the
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the toboggan going up and down the hill is 8.85 m/s² and 3.74 m/s².

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 11.7 m/s

Coefficients of static friction = 0.48

Coefficients of kinetic friction = 0.34

Angle = 40.0°

(a). When the toboggan moves up hill, then

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

a=g(\sin\theta+\mu_{k}\cos\theta)

Put the value into the formula

a=9.8(\sin40+0.34\times\cos40)

a=8.85\ m/s^2

(b). When the toboggan moves up hill, then

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

a=g(\sin\theta-\mu_{k}\cos\theta)

Put the value into the formula

a=9.8(\sin40-0.34\times\cos40)

a=3.74\ m/s^2

Hence, The acceleration of the toboggan going up and down the hill is 8.85 m/s² and 3.74 m/s².
