Answer:

1,700feet

Explanation:

If an object in free fall travels a distance s that is directly proportional to the square of the time t, this can be represented mathematically as;

S = kt²where;

k is the proportionality constant

K = s/t²

s1/t1²= s2/t2²= Sn/tn²= k for values of the distance and time. Using the formula

s1/t1² = s2/t2² where;

s1 is the falling distance in time t1 s2 is the falling distance in time t2

Given s1 = 1088feet, t1 = 8secs, s2 = ? t2 = 10secs

Substituting this value in the formula to get s2, we have;

1088/8²= s2/10²

64s2= 108800

s2 = 108800/64

s2 = 1,700feet

This means the object will fall a distance of 1,700feet in 10seconds

Special relativity can be used to study an object in which frame of reference?
Tresset [83]
Special relativity led the path for general relativity; special relativity is in a sense a special application of the rules of general relativity. While general relativity is in position to tackle all of these problems, special relativity can tackle only problems in inertial frames. Inertial frame means that the frame of reference is inot accelerating. So, we disqualify answers A and D. However, remember that moving in a circle means that there is an acceleration, the centrifugal one, even if the speed does not change. Hence C is also incorrect.
The correct answer is B, since if there is no change in velocity, the frame does not accelerate and it is inertial.

You go rock climbing with a pack that weighs 70 N and you reach a height of 30 m. how much work did you do to lift your pack? If
Vikentia [17]
When you climb, earth exerts gravitational force on pack in downward direction(pointing towards the center of earth).
In order to climb, you need to work against work done by gravity on the pack.
Hence work done by you = work done by gravity on pack 
                                        = Force x displacement = 70 x 30 = 2100 J.
 
So you need to do 2100 joules of work to lift your pack.

Power is the rate of work done.
Therefore power = work done by you/time(in seconds)
                            =     2100/600 =3.5 watts
