A person is standing on top of a cliff and falls down. If he takes 3.7 s to hit the ground, how high up is the cliff?

Answer:

h = 67.081 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The time taken by a person to fall down is, t = 2.2 s

The height of the cliff from the ground, h = ?

The distance that the person will fall through the time is given by the formula

                               S = 1/2 gt²  m

Where,        

                             g - acceleration due to gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation

                              S = 1/2 x 9.8 m/s² x (3.7 s)²

                                 = 67.081  m

Therefore, the height of the cliff from the ground is, h = 67.081  m

)) What do these two changes have in common?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Both are only physical changes

Explanation:

A physical change is a change that does not involve or alter the chemical composition of the substances involved. Physical changes form no new substance and can be easily separated into individual constituents. Example of physical changes are change in state, boiling, melting etc.

According to this question, two processes were given as follows:

1. mixing chocolate syrup into milk

2. rain forming in a cloud

These two processes are similar in the sense that they are both examples of physical changes.

g A change in the initial _____ of a projectile changes the range and maximum height of the projectile.​
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Velocity.

Explanation:

Projectile motion is characterized as the motion that an object undergoes when it is thrown into the air and it is only exposed to acceleration due to gravity.

As per the question, 'any change in the initial velocity of the projectile(object having gravity as the only force) would lead to a change in the range as well as the maximum height of the projectile.' To illustrate numerically:

Horizontal range: As per expression:

R= (u^{2}*sin2θ)/g

the range depending on the square of the initial velocity.

Maximum height: As per expression:

H= (u^{2} * sin^{2}θ )/2g

the maximum distance also depends upon square of the initial velocity.

in which place does subduction occur? a. at transform boundaries b. where two plates move apart c. at most normal faults d. wher
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer;

D. where two plates collide

Explanation;

-Subduction zones are plate tectonic boundaries where two plates converge, and one plate is thrust beneath the other. This process results in geohazards, such as earthquakes and volcanoes.

-Subduction zone volcanism occurs where two plates are converging on one another. One plate containing oceanic lithosphere descends beneath the adjacent plate, thus consuming the oceanic lithosphere into the earth's mantle. This on-going process is called subduction.

A space probe is fired as a projectile from the Earth's surface with an initial speed of 2.05 104 m/s. What will its speed be wh
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The value is  v  =  2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  initial speed is u =  2.05 *10^{4} \  m/s

 Generally the total energy possessed by the space probe when on earth is mathematically represented as

             T__{E}} =  KE__{i}} +  KE__{e}}

Here  KE_i is the kinetic energy of the space probe due to its initial speed which is mathematically represented as

          KE_i =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m  *  u^2

=>       KE_i =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m  *  (2.05 *10^{4})^2

=>       KE_i =  2.101 *10^{8} \ \ m \ \ J

And  KE_e is the kinetic energy that the space probe requires to escape the Earth's gravitational pull , this is mathematically represented as

       KE_e =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v_e^2

Here v_e is the escape velocity from earth which has a value v_e =  11.2 *10^{3} \  m/s

=>    KE_e =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  (11.3 *10^{3})^2

=>    KE_e =  6.272 *10^{7} \  \  m  \ \   J

Generally given that at a position that is very far from the earth that the is Zero, the kinetic energy at that position is mathematically represented as

        KE_p =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v^2

Generally from the law energy conservation we have that

        T__{E}} =  KE_p

So

       2.101 *10^{8}  m  +  6.272 *10^{7}  m  =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v^2

=>     5.4564 *10^{8} =   v^2

=>     v =  \sqrt{5.4564 *10^{8}}

=>     v  =  2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s
