-- At the end of 18sec, the stone's velocity is (9.8m/s² x 18s) = 176.4m/s downward.

-- Starting at 0 m/s and ending at 176.4m/s, its average velocity is 88.2m/s downward.

-- Falling for 18s at an average speed of 88.2m/s, it falls (88.2m/s x 18s) = 1,587.6 m .

-- Its displacement is <em>1,587.6 meters downward.</em>

Suppose you push a hockey puck of mass m across frictionless ice for a time \Delta t, starting from rest, giving thepuck speed v
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1. t_2 = 2t_1

2. t_2 = t_1\sqrt{2}

Explanation:

1. According to Newton's law of motion, the puck motion is affected by the acceleration, which is generated by the push force F.

In Newton's 2nd law: F = ma

where m is the mass of the object and a is the resulted acceleration. So in the 2nd experiment, if we double the mass, a would be reduced by half.

a_1 = 2a_2

Since the puck start from rest, in the 1st experiment, to achieve speed of v it would take t time

t = v / a_1

Now that acceleration is halved:

t = \frac{v}{2a_2}

\frac{v}{a_2} = 2t

You would need to push for twice amount of time t_2 = 2t_1

2. The distance traveled by the puck is as the following equation:

d = at^2

So if the acceleration is halved while maintaining the same d:

\frac{d_1}{d_2} = \frac{a_1t_1^2/2}{a_2t_2^2/2}

As d_1 = d_2, then d_1/d_2 = 1. Also a_1 = 2a_2

1 = \frac{2a_2t_1^2}{a_2t_2^2}

t_2^2 = 2t_1^2

t_2 = t_1\sqrt{2}\approx 1.14t_1

So t increased by 1.14

B. Assuming the acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2, what is the instantaneous velocity of the
goblinko [34]

We have that the instantaneous velocity of the shuttlecock when it hits the ground is

V_{int}=\sqrt{U^2+19.6H}

From the question we are told

Assuming the acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2, what is the instantaneous velocity of the

shuttlecock when it hits the ground? Show your work below.

Generally the equation for acceleration  is mathematically given as

a=v \frac{dv}{dx}\\\\\Therefore\\\\\2ah=v^2-u^2

Where

acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2,

Hence,

V^2-U^2=2(-9.81)*-H

Therefore

V_{int}=\sqrt{U^2+19.6H}

1. What type of wave is sound? Does sound need a medium (substance) to travel through?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

1. What type of wave is sound?

2.Does sound need a medium to travel through?

3. What are the properties of sound waves?

Explanation:

1. The type of waves sound are is mechanical waves.


2. Sound needs a solid, liquid or gas (material medium) to travel through.


3. I believe they are wavelength, amplitude, frequency, time period and velocity. 


I apologize if it is incorrect-

I hope it helps! Have a great day!

Consider the addition of an electron to the following atoms from the fourth period. Rank the atoms in order from the most negati
Murrr4er [49]
Electron configurations:

Ge: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p2 => 6 electrons in the outer shell

Br: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p5 => 7 electrons in the outer shell

Kr: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p6 => 8 electrons in the outer shell

The electron affinity or propension to attract electrons is given by the electronic configuration. Remember that the most stable configuration is that were the last shell is full, i.e. it has 8 electrons.

The closer an atom is to reach the 8 electrons in the outer shell the bigger the electron affinity.

Of the three elements, Br needs only 1 electron to have 8 electrons in the outer shell, so it has the biggest electron affinity (the least negative).

Ge: needs 2 electrons to have 8 electrons in the outer shell, so it has a smaller (more negative) electron affinity than Br.

Kr, which is a noble gas, has 8 electrons and is not willing to attract more electrons at all, the it has the lowest (more negative) electron affinity of all three to the extension that really the ion is so unstable that it does not make sense to talk about a number for the electron affinity of this atom.

Two identical balls are thrown vertically upward. the second ball is thrown with an initial speed that is twice that of the firs
Temka [501]
The motion of the ball on the vertical axis is an accelerated motion, with acceleration 
a=g=-9.81 m/s^2
The following relationship holds for an uniformly accelerated motion:
2aS=v_f^2 - v_i^2
where S is the distance covered, vf the final velocity and vi the initial velocity.

If we take the moment the ball reaches the maximum height (let's call this height h), then at this point of the motion the vertical velocity is zero:
v_f =0
So we can rewrite the equation as
2(-9.81 m/s^2) h=-v_i^2
from which we can isolate h
h= \frac{v_i^2}{19.62} (1)

Now let's assume that v_i is the initial velocity of the first ball. The second ball has an initial velocity that is twice the one of the first ball: 2v_i. So the maximum height of the second ball is
h= \frac{(2v_i)^2}{19.62}= \frac{4v_i^2}{19.62} (2)

Which is 4 times the height we found in (1). Therefore, the maximum height of ball 2 is 4 times the maximum height of ball 1.
