Gravity is 9.8 m/s² means means every second distance travelled
increases by the distance in the previous second plus an extra 9.8m
during last second it fell 38m
previous second dist = 38 - 9.8m = 28.2
previous second = 28.2 - 9.8m = 18.4m
distance left = 18.4 - 9.8m = 8.6m
(so actually less than a second as it only travelled 8.6m)
total distance h = 38 + 28.2 + 18.4 + 8.6 = 93.2m

hope this is what is required

During the final second of its fall, it falls a distance of 38m.

Its average speed during that final second was 38 m/s.

But we know that it gained 9.8 m/s of speed during that second.

Its speed at the end of that second must have been (38+4.9) = 42.9 m/s ,
and at the beginning of that second must have been (38-4.9) = 33.1 m/s .

Since its speed at the beginning of the final second was  33.1 m/s,
that final second began at  (33.1/9.8) = 3.378 seconds after the drop.

All together, when the final second is added onto that, the object
fell for a total of  4.378 seconds.

  Distance of fall from rest = (1/2) (g) (t)²

                                      = (4.9 m/s²) (4.378 s)²

                                      = (4.9 m/s²) (19.163 s²)

                                      =      93.9  meters  .

Hooke's law describes a certain light spring of unstretched length 31.8 cm. when one end is attached to the top of a doorframe a
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

extension in the spring = 40.4 - 31.8 = 8.6 cm = 8.6 x 10⁻² m .

kx = mg

k is spring constant , x is extension , m is mass

k x 8.6 x 10⁻² = 7.52 x 9.8

k = 856.93 N/m

=  857 x 10⁻³ KN /m

b ) Both side is pulled by force of 188 N .

Tension in spring = 188N

kx = T

856.93 x = 188

x = .219.38 m

= 21.938 cm

= 21.9 cm .

length of spring = 31.8 + 21.9

= 53.7 cm .

If there is a huge boulder on your lawn and you want to determine its density, but it is
Olin [163]

There are different options here but all of them work by approximating and assuming.

i) that the boulder is above ground.

ii) that the bottom surface of the boulder is known.

iii) the shape of the boulder is taken into account.

The most accurate way is measuring it by displacement method but the boulder is immovable hence the volume can be calculated by measuring the boulder or a waterproof box to be built around the boulder and calculate the volume occupied by boulder.

All the above methods are estimating methods.

*Another way to find the density is through specific gravity.

S.G = <u>Density</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>object</u>

Density of water

If the material that makes the boulder is known that is if it's stone or a mineral then the specific gravity can be found.

If the boulder is purely rock then S.G lies between 3 - 3.5 and the density of water is known thus the density of the boulder can be found without moving the boulder.

This is what I think after correction and allthe best!
