Scientists in a test lab are testing the hardness of a surface before constructing a building. Calculations indicate that the en

tire structure would sink by a certain amount for every additional floor that is added. If the maximum permissible limit for depression of the structure is 20 centimeters, how many floors can be safely added to the building?

From the given problem, a limit on the depression of a building is placed at 20 centimeters. To solve how many floors can be safely added, a quantity of how many cm will a building sink for each floor that is added is needed. Unfortunately, it is not found anywhere in the problem. However, we can provide a formula to solve for the depression. This is as follows:

Building depression < 20 cm

Building depression = (cm depression per floor) * (no. of floors)

Projectile Motion: A pilot drops a package from a plane flying horizontally at a constant speed. Neglecting air resistance, when
love history [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The package had the same velocity as the plane when it was dropped. Newton's 1st Law says that "an object in motion tends to stay in motion, at the same velocity, in a straight line unless acted on by an outside force".

There only outside force acting on the package was its weight -- that force is straight down. The horizontal velocity that the plane gave the package continued (as Newton said it would), so as it fell, horizontally it kept pace with the plane.

Determine the maximum theoretical speed that may be achieved over a distance of 66 m by a car starting from rest, knowing that t
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

v=32.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Distance ,d= 66 m

Initial speed of the car ,u = 0 m/s

Coefficient of friction ,μ = 0.8

Lets take the total mass of the car = m

The acceleration of the car is given as

a = μ g                               ( g= 10 m/s² )

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

a= 0.8 x 10 m/s²

a= 8 m/s²

We know that ,final speed is given as

v²= u ²+ 2 a d

Now putting the value

v²=0² + 2 x 8 x 66

v²= 1056

v=32.49 m/s
