You throw a rock horizontally out of a 7th story window. You time that it takes 3.7 seconds to hit the ground, and measure that

it hit the ground 115 m from the base of the building. What is the height of the 7th floor window?

Since we are only looking at the vertical height, we can use the free fall equation to find the height:
h = 0.5*g*t^2, where h is height in m, g is acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2), and t is time in seconds
h = 0.5*(9.81 m/s^2)*(3.7 s)^2
h = 67.15 m
Therefore, the 7th floor window is 67.15 m above ground level.

A toy car is given a quick push so that it moves up an inclined ramp. After it is released, it moves up, reaches its highest poi
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

7. Net constant force down the ramp

Explanation:

After the car is released and starts moving up the ramp, the only force that is applied on the car is weight because of the gravity, we were told that the friction force is neglected. the force because of the weight is given by:

F=m*g*sin(\theta)

where θ is the angle of the ramp.

as you can see those values won't change, so the force remains constant down the ramp.

Hello! Please I need help on 1. (C) I dont know the formula to get the Total height using Mechanical Energy
inna [77]

Answer:

4.00m

Explanation:

at that instant where it is dropped all the mechanical energy is gpe which is 71.9

and the formula for gpe = mass (1.80) * height * gravitational field strength (i'm using 10 m/s2)

height of football stadium

= 71.9/[(1.80)(10)]

= 71.9/18.0

= 3.99444..

= 4.00 (3 sf)

A parachutist of mass 56.0 kg jumps out of a balloon at a height of 1400 m and lands on the ground with a speed of 5.60 m/s. How
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Efriction = 768.23 [kJ]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use the principle of energy conservation. Where it tells us that the energy of a system plus the work applied or performed by that system, will be equal to the energy in the final state. We have two states the initial at the time of the balloon jump and the final state when the parachutist lands.

We must identify the types of energy in each state, in the initial state there is only potential energy, since the reference level is in the ground, at the reference point the potential energy is zero. At the time of landing the parachutist will only have potential energy, since it reaches the reference level.

The friction force acts in the opposite direction to the movement, therefore it will have a negative sign.

E_{pot}-E_{friction}=E_{kin}

where:

E_{pot}=m*g*h\\E_{kin}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}

m = mass = 56 [kg]

h = elevation = 1400 [m]

v = velocity = 5.6 [m/s]

(56*9.81*1400)-E_{friction}=\frac{1}{2}*56*(5.6)^{2}\\769104 -E_{friction}= 878.08 \\E_{friction}=769104-878.08\\E_{friction}=768226[J] = 768.23 [kJ]

Find the average braking force of a 1000 kg car moving at 10 m/s braking to a stop in 5 s.
Verdich [7]

Answer:

-2000 N

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we can use the impulse theorem, which states that the impulse is equal to the change in momentum of the car:

I = \Delta p\\F \Delta t = m \Delta v

where

F is the average breaking force

\Delta t = 5 s is the stopping time

m = 1000 kg is the mass of the car

\Delta v = -10 m/s is the change in velocity of the car

Solving the equation for F,

F=\frac{m \Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{(1000 kg)(-10 m/s)}{5 s}=-2000 N

PLZ HELP!!!!
irinina [24]
<span>First blank: B) Cutting down trees instead of growing trees
Cutting down trees means less plants that are photosynthesizing and consuming CO2 from the atmosphere.

Second blank: </span><span>D) Using clean energy sources instead of fossil fuels
Clean energy sources have little to no CO2 emissions. On the other hand, fossil fuels, when burned/combusted release large amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere.</span>
