Answer:
The time it takes the ball to fall 3.8 meters to friend below is approximately 0.88 seconds
Explanation:
The height from which the student tosses the ball to a friend, h = 3.8 meters above the friend
The direction in which the student tosses the ball = The horizontal direction
Given that the ball is tossed in the horizontal direction, and not the vertical direction, the initial vertical component of the velocity of the ball = 0
The equation of the vertical motion of the ball can therefore, be represented by the free fall equation as follows;
h = 1/2 × g × t²
Where;
g = The acceleration due gravity of the ball = 9.81 m/s²
t = The time of motion to cover height, h
Then height is already given as h = 3.8 m
Substituting gives;
3.8 = 1/2 × 9.81 × t²
t² = 3.8/(1/2 × 9.81) ≈ 0.775 s²
∴ t = √0.775 ≈ 0.88 seconds
The time it takes the ball to fall 3.8 meters to friend below is t ≈ 0.88 seconds.
Answer:
a. 
b.
must be the minimum magnitude of deceleration to avoid hitting the leading car before stopping
c.
is the time taken to stop after braking
Explanation:
Given:
- speed of leading car,

- speed of lagging car,

- distance between the cars,

- deceleration of the leading car after braking,

a.
Time taken by the car to stop:

where:
, final velocity after braking
time taken


b.
using the eq. of motion for the given condition:

where:
final velocity of the chasing car after braking = 0
acceleration of the chasing car after braking

must be the minimum magnitude of deceleration to avoid hitting the leading car before stopping
c.
time taken by the chasing car to stop:


is the time taken to stop after braking
Answer:
70m/s²
Explanation:
we will use the first equation of Dalton to find it
Answer:
Same direction: t=234s; d=6.175Km
Opposite direction: t=27.53s; d=0.73Km
Explanation:
If the automobile and the train are traveling in the same direction, then the automobile speed relative to the train will be
(<em>the train must see the car advancing at a lower speed</em>), where
is the speed of the automobile and
the speed of the train.
So we have
.
So the train (<em>anyone in fact</em>) will watch the automobile trying to cover the lenght of the train L at that relative speed. The time required to do this will be:

And in that time the car would have traveled (<em>relative to the ground</em>):

If they are traveling in opposite directions, <u>we have to do all the same</u> but using
(<em>the train must see the car advancing at a faster speed</em>), so repeating the process:
