A stone is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 9 m/s from the edge of a cliff. A stop watch measures the stone's trajec

tory time from the top of the cliff to the bottom to be 4.7 s. What is the height of the cliff? Round to the nearest tenth of a meter

Answer:

the height of the cliff is equal to 108.241 m

Explanation:

given,

initial speed of the stone horizontally  = 9 m/s

vertical speed of the stone = 0 m/s

time taken of the trajectory = 4.7 s

using equation of motion

s = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

s =0 \times 4.7 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times 4.7^2

s = 0 + 4.9 \times 4.7^2

s = 4.9 \times 22.09

s = 108.241 m

hence, the height of the cliff is equal to 108.241 m

Dina has a mass of 50 kilograms and is waiting at the top of a ski slope that’s 5.0 meters high.
Over [174]
All of Dina's potential energy Ep is converted into kinetic energy Ek so Ep=Ek, where Ep=m*g*h and Ek=(1/2)*m*v². m is the mass of Dina, h is the height of ski slope, g=9.8 m/s² and v is the maximal velocity. 

So we solve for v:

m*g*h=(1/2)*m*v², masses cancel out,

g*h=(1/2)*v², we multiply by 2,

2*g*h=v² and take the square root to get v

√(2*g*h)=v, we plug in the numbers and get:

v=9.9 m/s. 

So Dina's maximum velocity on the bottom of the ski slope is v=9.9 m/s.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

magnitude of the frictional torque is 0.11 Nm

Explanation:

Moment of inertia I = 0.33 kg⋅m2

Initial angular velocity w° = 0.69 rev/s = 2 x 3.142 x 0.69 = 4.34 rad/s

Final angular velocity w = 0 (since it stops)

Time t = 13 secs

Using w = w° + §t

Where § is angular acceleration

O = 4.34 + 13§

§ = -4.34/13 = -0.33 rad/s2

The negative sign implies it's a negative acceleration.

Frictional torque that brought it to rest must be equal to the original torque.

Torqu = I x §

T = 0.33 x 0.33 = 0.11 Nm
