Use v^2 - u^2 = 2as

Here, u = 20 m/s , a = -0.5 m/s^2 and v = 0

- 400 = -s ======> s = 400 m

Hope it helps, please mark me as brainliest and give me a good rating. Thank You!

Which statement about tornadoes is correct? a. They are a very common part of thunderstorms. b. Seventy-five percent of the worl

Anit [1.1K]

As strange as it may seem, around 75% world’s tornadoes

occur in the United States. It's actually because of the unique

geography of North America, and how the winds and storms

get funneled up through the US. (choice-b)

It's true that when there's a tornado, it usually comes along with a thunderstorm. But tornadoes are way way LESS common than thunderstorms.

Their main danger is from the high winds in the center of the funnel.

The rain is minor compared to the wind damage.

Tornadoes are not really the strongest storms on Earth.

Welll ... I guess that could depend on what "strong storm" means.

Sure, a tornado is incredibly vicious and powerful. But it's only a few

miles wide, and it only lasts for a few hours and then it's all over.

The tropical cyclones ... hurricanes, monsoons, typhoons ... don't have

winds as fast as tornadoes, but they can be a thousand miles wide and

last for weeks.

A raindrop of mass 0.5 * 10^-4 kg is falling verctically under the influence of gravity. The air drag on the raindrop is fdrag =

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The displacement of the air drop after 3 second is 18.27 m.

Explanation:

Mass of the rain drop = m = $0.5\times 10^{-4} kg$

Weight of the rain drop = W

Duration of time = t = 3 seconds

$W=m\times g$

Drag force on rain drop = $D=0.2\times 10^{-5} v^2$

$W=0.5\times 10^{-4} kg\time 10 m/s^2=0.5\times 10^{-3} N$

Motion of the rain drop:

$F=m\times a$

Net force on the rain drop , F= W - D

$W-D=m\times a$

$0.5\times 10^{-3} N-0.2\times 10^{-5} v^2=0.5\times 10^{-4} kg\times a$

$0.5\times 10^{-3} kg m/s^2-0.2\times 10^{-5} v^2=0.5\times 10^{-4} kg\times \frac{v}{t}$

$0.006v^2+0.05v-1.5=0$

v = 12.18 m/s

Initial velocity of the rain drop = u = 0 (since, it is starting from rest)

v=u+at (First equation of motion)

$12.18 m/s=0m/s+a\times 3 s$

$a=4.06 m/s^2$

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$ (second equation of motion)

$s=0\times 3s+\frac{1}{2}\times 4.06m/s^2\times (3 s)^2$

s = 18.27 m

The displacement of the air drop after 3 second is 18.27 m.
