Let h =  distance (m) to the water surface.

Initial velocity, u  = 0 (because the stone was dropped).
Use the formula
 h = ut + (1/2)gt^2
  where g = 9.8 m/s^2  (acc. due to graity)
              t = time (s)

h = (1/2)*(9.8)*(3^2) = 44.1 m

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

shirt is little attached to the body, it can come off and fly away

Explanation:

In electrostatics, charges of different signs attract and charges of the same sign repel.

In this case, when a negative charge is placed on it, both the inventor and the shirt are charged, therefore there is a repulsive force, also there is an attraction between the positive charge of the roof attracts the negative charge, such as the shirt. of weak the two forces not greater than the resistance of the walk.

As the shirt is little attached to the body, it can come off and fly away

1) The mass of the continent is 3.3\cdot 10^{21}kg

2) The kinetic energy of the continent is 1683 J

3) The speed of the jogger must be 6.57 m/s

Explanation:

1)

The continent can be represented as a slab of size

d=5850 km = 5.85\cdot 10^6 m

and depth

t = 35 km = 3.5\cdot 10^4 m

So its volume is

V=d^2 t = (5.85\cdot 10^6)^2(3.5\cdot 10^4)=1.20\cdot 10^{18} m^3

We also know that the density of the continent is

\rho = 2750 kg/m^3

Therefore, we can calculate its mass as:

m=\rho V=(2750)(1.20\cdot 10^{18})=3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg

2)

The kinetic energy of the continent is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is its mass

v is its speed

We have already calculate its mass, while the speed is

v = 3.2 cm/year

We have to convert into SI units first, as follows:

v=3.2 \frac{cm}{year} \cdot \frac{1}{100 cm/m} \cdot \frac{1}{(365 d/y)(24h/d)(60min/h)(60 s/min)}=1.01\cdot 10^{-9} m/s

The mass is

m=3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg

So, the kinetic energy of the continent is

K=\frac{1}{2}(3.3\cdot 10^{21})(1.01\cdot 10^{-9})^2=1683 J

3)

Here we have a jogger having the same kinetic energy of the continent, so

K=1683 J

And the kinetic energy of the jogger can be expressed as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 78 kg is the mass of the jogger

v is his speed

We can therefore re-arrange the equation to find the speed of the man, and we get:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(1683)}{78}}=6.57 m/s

MissTica
The correct answer to this question is C - Gravity is a force. Gravity is also an example of a universal law. Well, according to Isaac Newton, anyway. According to Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, 'every point mass attracts every single point mass by a force pointing along the line intersecting both paths.'

Check Your UnderstandingSuppose the radius of the loop-the-loop inExample 7.9is 15 cm and thetoy car starts from rest at a heigh
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

v = 1.7 m/s

Explanation:

By applying conservation of energy principle in this situation, we know that:

Loss in Potential Energy of Car = Gain in Kinetic Energy of Car

mgΔh = (1/2)mv²

2gΔh = v²

v = √(2gΔh)

where,

v = velocity of car at top of the loop = ?

g = 9.8 m/s²

Δh = change in height = 45 cm - Diameter of Loop

Δh = 45 cm - 30 cm = 15 cm = 0.15 m

Therefore,

v = √(2)(9.8 m/s²)(0.15 m)

<u>v = 1.7 m/s</u>
