A 1.5 kg orange falls from a tree and hits the ground in 0.75s. What is the speed of the orange just before it hits the ground?

The final speed of the orange is 7.35 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the orange is a free fall motion, since there is only the force of gravity acting on it. Therefore, it is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. So we can use the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the  final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time elapsed

For the orange in this problem, we have

u = 0 (it is dropped from rest)

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Substituting t = 0.75 s, we find the final velocity (and speed) of the orange:

v=0+(9.8)(0.75)=7.35 m/s

The amplitude, or magnitude, of a sinusoidal source is the maximum value of the source. What is the amplitude of the voltage sou
liraira [26]

Answer:

<em>A = 0.05 V</em>

Explanation:

<u>Sinusoidal Functions</u>

A sinusoid or sinusoidal function is a sine or cosine which general equation is

F(x)=A.sin(wt-\phi)

Or also

F(x)=A.cos(wt-\phi)

Where A is the amplitude or maximum value, w is the angular frequency, t is the time and \phi is the phase shift.

Comparing the given expression with the general formula

v(t)=50cos(2000t-45^o) mV

We can establish that A=50 mV = 0.05 V

A = 0.05\ V

A ski lift carries people along a 220-meter cable up the side of a mountain. Riders are lifted a total of 110 meters in elevatio
jeka94

The ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) can be determined by the following equation:

 IMA= Input distance/Output distance

 The Input distance and Output distance are:

 Input distance=220 meters

 Output distance=110 meters

 When you substitute in the equation of the ideal mechanical advantage (IMA), you obtain:

 IMA= Input distance/Output distance

 IMA= 220 meters/110 meters

 IMA=2

An object whose weight is 10kg is placed on smooth plane inclined at 30° to the horizontal. find the acceleration of the object
velikii [3]

Answer:

4.9 m/s²

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.  There are two forces on the object:

Weight force mg pulling straight down,

and normal force N pushing perpendicular to the plane.

Sum the forces in the parallel direction.

∑F = ma

mg sin θ = ma

a = g sin θ

a = (9.8 m/s²) (sin 30°)

a = 4.9 m/s²
