An apple drops from a tree and hits the ground in 1.5s what is its speed just before it hits the ground?

Vf - Vo = gT  

where  

Vf = velocity of apple just before hitting the ground  

Vo = initial velocity of apple = 0  

T = time for apple to hit the ground = 1.5 sec (given)  

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2 (constant)  

Substituting appropriate values,  

Vf - 0 = 9.8(1.5)  

Vf = 14.7 m/sec.

If two bicycles of same masses move at different velocities,it will be easier to stop the bicycle that is moving at lower veloci
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

It is easier to stop the bicycle moving at a lower velocity because it will require a <em>smaller force</em> to stop it when compared to a bicycle with a higher velocity that needs a<em> bigger force.</em>

Explanation:

The question above is related to "Newton's Law of Motion." According to the <em>Third Law of Motion</em>, whenever an object exerts a force on another object <em>(action force)</em>, an equal force is exerted against it. This force is of the same magnitude but opposite direction.

When it comes to moving bicycles, the force that stops their movement is called "friction." Applying the law of motion, the higher the speed, the higher the force<em> </em>that is needed to stop it while the lower the speed, the lower the force<em> </em>that is needed to stop it.

A swing has a period of 10 seconds. What is its frequency ?
kow [346]

Frequency = 1 / (period)

Frequency = 1 / (10 seconds) = (1/10) ( / second) = 0.1 per second = <em>0.1 Hz</em>.

A block is released from rest, at a height h, and allowed to slide down an inclined plane. There is friction on the plane. At th
GREYUIT [131]

Here the block has two work done on it

1. Work done by gravity

2. Work done by friction force

So here it start from height "h" and then again raise to height hA after compressing the spring

So work done by the gravity is given as

W_g = m_A g(h - h_A)

Now work done by the friction force is to be calculated by finding total path length because friction force is a non conservative force and its work depends on total path

W_f = -(\mu m_A g cos\theta)(\frac{h}{sin\theta} + \frac{h_A}{sin\theta})

W_f = -\mu m_A g cot\theta(h + h_A)

Total work done on it

W = m_A g(h - h_A) - \mu m_A g cot\theta(h + h_A)

So answer will be

None of these
