You will use the height of the bridge from the ground.

Solution:

Formula to be used is y=Viy(t)+g(t^2)/2

Where:

Vi=initial velocity which is 0 m/s

 y=10 m

Gravitational acceleration or g =9.8m/s^2

T= time you need

Substitute all the given to the formula

10m=(0m/s)(t)+(9.8m/s^2)(t^2)/2

10mx2=9.8m/s^2(t^2)

Now isolate the variable you want to find which is T or time

10mx2/9.8m/s^2=t^2

20m/9.8m/s^2=t^2

Square root of 2.04= square root of t^2

T=1.43 secs

The answer is 1.43 seconds

You just need to use the height of the bridge from the ground.

The formula to be used is y = Voy*t + g *(t^2) / 2, where the Voy is the intitial vertical velocity, which is zero.

Then, y = 10 m = g * (t^2) / 2 => t^2 = 2 * 10 m / g

=> t^2 = 2 * 10 m / 9.8 m/s^2 = 2.04 s^2

=> t = 1.43 s <------- answer

Mason notices that his boat sinks lower into the water in a freshwater lake than in the ocean. What could explain this?
suter [353]

<u>Answer </u>

D. Salt water is denser than freshwater.

<u>Explanation</u>

A boat is able to float on water because it experiences an upthrust upwards.

The magnitude of the upthrust depends on the density of the liquid.

When the liquid is denser the boat will experience a great upthrust as compared to when in a less dense liquid.

If the boat sinks lower in the freshwater than in salty water, then Salt water is more dense than freshwater.

A 3.8kw elective motor powers an inclined conveyer belt. It is designed to lift heavy boxes from the warehouse floor to loading
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

See the answers below

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of power and work in physics.

a)

The function of the conveyor belt is to carry the boxes from an initial point that is at low altitude to an end point that is at high altitude. In this way the conveyor belt prints a speed to the box to be able to raise it to the required vertical distance.

Since we have a velocity at the beginning and then we place the box at a high position, where then the box remains at rest, we can say that it converts kinetic energy to potential energy.

b)

Power is defined as the relationship of work over time. Therefore we have:

P=W/t

where:

P = power = 3.8 [kW] = 3800 [W]

W = work [J]

t = time = 14 [s]

W=P*t\\W=3800*14\\W= 53200[J] = 53.2[kJ]

c)

Since the given time is equal to the given time at Point b, we can use the same work calculated.

We know that work is defined as the product of force by the distance traveled.

W =F*d

So, the force is equal to:

F=W/d\\F=53200/5.3\\F=10037.73[N]

Now we know that force is defined as the product of mass by gravitation acceleration.

F =m*g

where:

F = force or weight = 10037.73 [N]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

m = mass [kg]

m=F/g\\m = 10037.73/9.81\\m = 1023.2 [kg]

d)

This part can be solved by means of the energy conservation theorem, where the potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy or vice versa.

E_{pot}=m*g*h = E_{kin}=0.5*m*v^{2}

where:

h = elevation = 4.7 [m]

v = velocity [m/s]

m*g*h=0.5*m*v^{2}\\g*h=0.5*v^{2} \\v=\sqrt{\frac{g*h}{0.5} } \\v=\sqrt{\frac{9.81*4.7}{0.5} }   \\v = 9.6 [m/s]
