Knowing that when you throw something in the air, the speed will be 0m/s.
The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s^2.

v2=0
v1=24
a=9.8

The formula is:
v2=v1+a(t)
v2-v1/a=t
0-24/9.8
24m/s/9.8m/s^2=t (You can choose which direction is positive and negative)
2.45s=t
t=2.45*2s (Since you calculate both going up and down)
t=4.9s

A light wave travels through water (n=1.33) at an angle of 35º. What angle
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

49.7^{\circ}

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Snell's law:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where

n1 = 1.33 is the index of refraction of the first medium (water)

n2 = 1.00 is the index of refraction of the second medium (air)

\theta_1 = 35^{\circ} is the angle of incidence of the wave in water

\theta_2 is the angle of refraction of the wave in air

Solving for the angle of refraction,

sin \theta_2 = \frac{n_1 sin \theta_1}{n_2}=\frac{(1.33) sin 35^{\circ}}{1.00}=0.763\\\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (0.763)=49.7^{\circ}

A 28 kg student stand on the surface of the Earth. What is the magnitude of the
Contact [7]

Answer:

F = 274.68[N]

Explanation:

The gravitational force is equal to the weight of a body, or this case that of a person. Weight can be calculated by means of the product of mass by gravitational acceleration. In this way we have the following equation:

F=m*g

where:

F = force or weight [N]

m = mass = 28 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

F=28*9.81\\F=274.68[N]

A car accelerates from rest at 3 m/s for 6 seconds. The velocity of the car after 6 seconds is what ?
Artist 52 [7]

vf = vi + at
then solve for v

so
v = a(t)
so v = (3m/s^2)(6s)

so v = 18m/s

False. That's why sound cannot be heard in space.
