A rock is thrown directly upward from the edge of a flat roof of a building that is 56.3 meters tall. The rock misses the buildi

ng on its way down, and is observed to strike the ground 4.00 seconds after being thrown. Neglect air resistance.
With what speed was the rock thrown?
How high did the rock travel in the reference frame of the thrower?

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, d = -56.3 m

It strikes the ground 4.00 seconds after being thrown.

Using second equation of motion to find the speed was the rock thrown. So,

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Here, a = -g

d=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\-56.3=u(4)-4.9(4)^2\\\\-56.3=4u-78.4\\\\u=5.52\ m/s

Let it will cover a distance of s meters. So,

s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{-2g}\\\\s=\dfrac{0^2-(5.52)^2}{-2\times 9.8}\\\\s=1.55\ m

What force is most responsible for the path of an object during projectile motion?
Levart [38]
The gravitational force.

In fact, the motion of the projectile is composed by two independent motions:
- on the horizontal direction, it is a uniform motion (with constant speed)
- on the vertical direction, it is a uniformly accelerated motion, where the vertical acceleration g is given by the gravity exerted by the Earth on the projectile.

For this reason, the composition of the two motions results in a parabolic trajectory.

Determine the volume of a cube whose width is 32.1 cm. Round your answer to the correct number significant figures.
Romashka [77]

The volume of a cube is given by:

V=L^3

where L is the measure of each side (which corresponds to its width, since all sides of a cube are equal).

Plugging the data of the problem, L=32.1 cm, inside the equation, we find the volume:

V=L^3 =(32.1 cm)^3 =33076.2 cm^3

Answer:

b  Use a balance to determine the mass of the car. Use a motion sensor to measure the speed of the car at a time of 0s and at time of 5s .

Explanation:

The right way to measure the net force on the car is take the measurement of its mass then find the speed of the car within the time 0s to 5s.

This is because the net force acting on car is given as;

   Force  = mass x acceleration

By using the balance, the mass is determine

 Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

     Acceleration  = \frac{v - u}{t}  

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

  Now,

         Force  = mass x  \frac{v - u}{t}
