90 points whats the equation for how fast something will be traveling before it hits the ground. How to do the equation PLEASE E

XPLAIN here is an example problem
A 0.05 kg-coin is dropped from the top of a skyscraper that is 100 meters high. How fast is the coin traveling just before it hits the ground?
use GPE=M*g*h
KE= 0.5*Mass *velocity squared

⭐Hey

⭐Here we can use the formula for the body that is in free fall state. .

⭐that is

↪V = underoot 2*g*h

↪So the velocity will be ...

↪V = underoot 2 * 10 * 100

↪V = underoot 2000

↪V = 20 *underoot 5

↪V = 20 ( 2.23)

↪V = 44.6 m/s

<em>You wrote the whole answer right there !</em>

The GPE it has when it's dropped IS exactly the KE it has when it hits the ground.  So you just write (KE at the bottom) = (GPE at the top).

Like this:   M · g · h  =  (1/2) · m · v²

Divide each side by M :

g · h  =  (1/2) · v²

Multiply each side by 2 :

2 · g · h  =  v²

Take the square root of each side:

<em>Speed = √(2 · g · h)</em>

What things do you know in this equation ?

-- 'g' is 9.81 m/s².  

-- 'h' is the height it dropped from.  

-- You know what '2' is.

-- You know how to do a square root on your calculator.

-- Pluggum all in, and you have the speed when it hits the ground.

Notice that the mass of the object went away !   It doesn't matter whether it's a coin or a car.  It only depends on gravity and the height it's dropped from.

Which of the follow represent a chemical changes
mixer [17]

Answer:

C) steel turning to rust in salt air

Explanation:

The missing options are:

A) ice melting to form liquid water

B) water boiling to form steam

C) steel turning to rust in salt air

D) sugar dissolving into hot coffee

In a chemical change the atoms of the reacting compounds are reordered forming new compounds. In a chemical change, new compounds appear, but in a physical change not.

Then, change of states like ice melting and water boiling are not chemical changes.

During steel rust, components of steel, like iron, are oxidized, that is, reacts with oxygen forming oxides.

The dissolution of sugar into hot coffee is a physical change in which sugar molecules get further apart in the coffee,  but they don't change.

A cubical block of wood, 10.0 cm on a side, floats at the interface between oil and water with its lower surface 1.50 cm below t
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

the gauge pressure at the upper face of the block is 116 Pa

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

A cubical block of wood, 10.0 cm on a side.

height h = 1.50 cm = ( 1.50 × ( 1 / 100 ) ) m = 0.0150 m

density ρ = 790 kg/m³

Using expression for the gauged pressure;

p-p₀ = ρgh

where, p₀ is atmospheric pressure, ρ is the density of the substance, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the depth of the fluid.

we know that, acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s²

so we substitute

p-p₀ = 790 kg/m³gh × 9.8 m/s² × 0.0150 m

= 116.13 ≈ 116 Pa

Therefore, the gauge pressure at the upper face of the block is 116 Pa
