At rest, initial speed zero

x=v(initial) t+ 1/2 at^2
-1000m=0(10) + 1/2 a 10^2
-1000m=50a
a = -20 m/s^2

Please help with these physics problems 1. A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

1.) h = 164.8 m

2.) U = 49.1 m/s

3.) t = 1.43 seconds

Explanation:

1.) A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to the ground. The height of the building is...? 

Since the soccer ball is dropped from the building, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Substitutes the time into the formula

h = 1/2 × 9.8 × 5.8^2

h = 164.8 m

2. The Falcon 9 launches to a height of 123 meters. What is its vertical initial velocity?

At maximum height final velocity = 0

Using the third law of motion

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.8 × 123

U^2 = 2410.8

U = 49.1 m/s

3. An apple falls from rest off a 10.m m tree. How long will it take before it hits the ground?

Since the apple fall from rest, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using the second equation of motion,

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

substitute all the parameters into the formula

10 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

10 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 10/4.9

t^2 = 2.04

t = 1.43 seconds

Two blocks joined by a string have masses of 6 and 9 kg. They rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A 2nd string, attached
Tom [10]

Answer:

12N

Explanation:

Suppose the string mass is negligible, the total mass of the 2 block system is 6 + 9 = 15 kg

So the acceleration of the system when subjected to 30N force is

a = F / M = 30 / 15 = 2 m/s2

So both blocks would have the same acceleration, however, the force acting on the 6kg block would have a magnitude of

f = am = 2 * 6 = 12N

This is the tension in the string between the blocks

FM radio ________________. a. had a somewhat shorter range than AM radio, but better sound quality. b. was widely adopted in the
svetlana [45]

Answer:

(A) FM Radio had a somewhat shorter ranger than AM radio, but better sound quality.

Explanation:

FM Radio was invented in 1933 by Edwin Armstrong who was an American engineer. FM stands for frequency modulation and AM stands for Amplitude Modulation.

FM is used for most broadcasts of music and FM radio stations use a very high-frequency range of radio frequencies.

In FM Radio, the sound is transmitted through changes in frequency. Both FM and AM radio signals experience frequent change in amplitude, they are far less noticeable on FM.

When switching between stations, FM antenna is alternating between different frequencies, and not amplitudes and this produces a much clearer sound and allows for smoother transitions with little to no audible static.

FM signals can be interfered by barriers and this could affect the signal strength. FM Radio signals are more clearer in a mountainous area that has no barrier.

AM radio was able to carry signals farther than AM radio.

A sphere is charged with electrons to -6 x 10^-6C. How many electrons make up this charge? The elemental charge is 1.6 x 10^-19
just olya [345]

Answer:

3.75*10^{-13}  electrons

Explanation:

The total charge Q is the sum of the charge of the N electrons contained in the sphere:

Q=N*q_{e}

q_{e}=-1.6*10^{-19}C    charge of a electron

We solve to find N:

N=\frac{Q}{q_{e}}=\frac{-6 x 10^{-6}}{-1.6 x 10^{-19}}=3.75*10^{-13}
