Answer:

1.52 seconds

Explanation:

Step 1: identity the given parameters

Initial velocity (u) = 12m/s

Height above ground (h1) = 4m

Final velocity (V) = 0

Step 2: calculate the height travelled by the object from 4m height (h2).

V^2 = U^2 -2gh

0= 12^2-2(9.8*h)

2(9.8*h) = 12^2

19.6*h = 144

h = 144/19.6

h = 7.347 m

Total height above ground (ht) = 4m +7.347m = 11.347m

Step 3: calculate the time reach ground

T = √(2h/g)

T = √(2*11.347/9.8)

T= √(22.694/9.8)

T= √2.316

T= 1.52 seconds

What is the magnitude of an electric field that balances the weight of a plastic sphere of mass 2.1 g that has been charged to -
Liula [17]

Answer:

Electric field, E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of sphere, m = 2.1 g = 0.0021 kg

Charge, q=-3\ nC=-3\times 10^{-9}\ C

We need to find the magnitude of electric field that balances the weight of a plastic spheres. So,

ma=qE

a = g

E=\dfrac{mg}{q}

E=\dfrac{0.0021\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}{-3\times 10^{-9}\ C}

E=6860000\ N/C

or

E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Hence, the magnitude of electric field that balances its weight is 6.86\times 10^6\ N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

Two electric motors drive two elevators of equal mass in a three-story building 10 meters tall. Each elevator has a mass of 1,00
algol [13]

Answer:

The power output of the first motor is,  P = 2.0 x 10⁴ watts

Explanation:

Given data,

The height of the building, h = 10 m

The mass of the elevator, m = 1000 kg

The time duration of the motor to do this work, t = 5.0 s

The force acting on the elevator,

                                  F = m x g

                                    = 1000 x 9.8

                                     = 9800 N

The work done by the elevator,

                                W = F  x h

                                     = 9800 x 10

                                     = 98000 J

The power output of the first motor,

                                P = W / t

                                   = 98000 / 5

                                   = 19600 watts

                                   = 1.96 x 10⁴ watts

Hence, the power output of the first motor is, P = 2.0 x 10⁴ watts

A 544 g ball strikes a wall at 14.3 m/s and rebounds at 14.4 m/s. The ball is in contact with the wall for 0.042 s. What is the
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

F = 371.738\,N

Explanation:

Let assume that ball strikes a vertical wall in horizontal direction. The situation can be modelled by the appropriate use of the definition of Moment and Impulse Theorem, that is:

(0.544\,kg)\cdot (14.3\,\frac{m}{s})-F\cdot \Delta t = -(0.544\,kg)\cdot (14.4\,\frac{m}{s} )

F\cdot \Delta t = 15.613\,\frac{kg}{m\cdot s}

The average force acting on the ball during the collision is:

F = \frac{15.613\,\frac{kg}{m\cdot s} }{0.042\,s}

F = 371.738\,N
