An object is projected with initial speed v0 from the edge of the roof of a building that has height H. The initial velocity of

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity u = V₀ in upward direction so it will be negative

u = - V₀

Displacement s = H . It is downwards so it will be positive

Acceleration = g ( positive as it is also downwards )

Using the formula

v² = u² + 2 g s

v² = (- V₀ )² + 2 g H

= V₀² + 2 g H .

v = √ ( V₀² + 2 g H )

P6: An object of mass m sits on a spring of constant k in an elevator that is accelerating upwards with acceleration a. a) In te

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

(a). The spring compressed is $\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$ .

(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration = a

mass = m

spring constant = k

(a). We need to calculate the spring compressed

Using balance equation

$kx-mg=ma$

$x=\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$ ....(I)

The spring compressed is $\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$ .

(b). If the compression is 2.5 times larger than it is when the mass sits in a still elevator,

The compression is given by

$x=2.5\times x_{0}$

Here, acceleration is zero

So, $x=2.5\times\dfrac{mg}{k}$

We need to calculate the acceleration

Put the value of x in equation (I)

$2.5\times \dfrac{mg}{k}=\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$

$2.5\times\dfrac{mg}{k}=\dfrac{m}{k}(a+g)$

$a=2.5g-g$

$a=1.5g$

Hence, (a). The spring compressed is $\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$ .

(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.

Allison is looking through a telescope at an object in space. The object looks like a very small planet, and it does not have a

Verizon [17]

Answer:

Allison is probably looking at the asteroid.

Explanation:

Asteroids are the giant gas balls of inner solar system that are present in the space.
Asteroids orbits around the sun in very irregular ans strange path unlike the other planets.
This is also the reason why it's called as the minor planets.
It could have been comet but if it had been a comets he must have seen the tail but asteroids do not have any tail like structure.
