Answer:

4.1 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem by using considerations about energy.

At the moment the stone is dropped, it has only gravitational potential energy:

PE=mgh

where

mg=30 N is the weight of the stone

h = 10 m is the initial height of the stone

As the stone falls, part of this energy is converted into kinetic energy, while part into thermal energy due to the presence of the air friction, acting opposite to the motion of the stone:

KE+E_t = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + E_t

where:

m=\frac{mg}{g}=\frac{30}{9.8}=3.06 kg is the mass

v = 13 m/s is the final speed of the stone

E_t is the thermal energy

The thermal energy is actually equal to the work done by the air friction on the stone:

E_t=W=Fh

where

F is the average force of friction

h = 10 m

Since the total energy must be conserved, we can combine the three equations, so we find:

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+Fh

And solving for F, we find the average force of air friction:

F=\frac{mgh-0.5mv^2}{h}=\frac{(30)(10)-0.5(3.06)(13)^2}{10}=4.1 N

REY [17]
All you need to do is 8 divided by 6. When you do so you get: 1.3 which could also be written as 1 3/8.

So each person gets 1 whole piece and 3/8 of another piece.

Find the opposite of: - 4x2 - 4x + 2
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

4x² + 4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite is the negative value

The opposite of - 4x² - 4x + 2 is

- (- 4x² - 4x + 2) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= 4x² + 4x - 2
