-- The acceleration due to gravity is 32.2 ft/sec² . That means that the
speed of a falling object increases by an additional 32.2 ft/sec every second.
-- If dropped from "rest" (zero initial speed), then after falling for 4 seconds,
the object's speed is (4.0) x (32.2) = <em>128.8 ft/sec</em>.
-- 128.8 ft/sec = <em>87.8 miles per hour</em>
Now we can switch over to the metric system, where the acceleration
due to gravity is typically rounded to 9.8 meters/sec² .
-- Distance = (1/2) x (acceleration) x (time)²
D = (1/2) (9.8) x (4)² =<em> 78.4 meters</em>
-- At 32 floors per 100 meters, 78.4 meters = dropped from the <em>25th floor</em>.
The 5 points are certainly appreciated, but I do wish they were Celsius points.
Answer:
thermal and radiant
Explanation:
- thermal energy refers to the energy transmitted through heat
- radiant energy refers to the energy transmitted through electromagnetic radiation, such as light
When the person lights the match, the match produces both heat (thermal energy) and light (radiant energy), so the correct answer is
thermal and radiant
Answer: 
Explanation:
Given
angular speed of wheel is 
Another wheel of 9 times the rotational inertia is coupled with initial wheel
Suppose the initial wheel has moment of inertia as I
Coupled disc has 
as rotational inertia
Conserving angular momentum,
Had to look for the options and here is my answer.
The statement that is considered correct regarding a wave that is propagating along the pavement and girders of a suspension bridge is this: "t<span>he wave is mechanical, with particles vibrating in a direction that is perpendicular to that of the wave, forming compressions and rarefactions." Hope this helps.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
The main equation to solve this is F = ma, where F is the force applied to the brakes with respect to its acceleration. We have the mass that we need, but we do not have the acceleration. That's the first thing we have to find. However, our velocity needs to be stated in m/s and right now it's in km/h. Converting that:
Now we're ready to find the acceleration:
where the top line there translates to the final velocity minus the initial velocity.
so the acceleration is -8.3 m/s/s
We can use that now in the force equation above:
F = 1200(-8.3) and
F = -1.0 × 10⁴ N (that's 10,000 N to the correct number of sig dig's; the negative sign means that the force is being applied in the direction opposite to that which the van is currently moving)
