1 block North and 2 blocks west are going to be legs of the triangle.
Total displacement is hypotenuse.
So, we can use Pithagorean Formula.

D² = 1² + 2² =5 m²

D =√5 m

kodGreya [7K]

As long as they're both on the same planet, the greater mass always has the greater weight.  In this question, Object-A has the greater mass, so it weighs more that Object-B does.

The density of a hippo is approximately 1030kg/m^3,so it sinks to the bottom of the freshwater lakes and rivers. A 1500kg hippo
hram777 [196]

Answer:

14,700 N

Explanation:

The hyppo is standing completely submerged on the bottom of the lake. Since it is still, it means that the net force acting on it is zero: so, the weight of the hyppo (W), pushing downward, is balanced by the upward normal force, N:

W-N=0 (1)

the weight of the hyppo is

W=mg=(1500 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=14,700 N

where m is the hyppo's mass and g is the gravitational acceleration; therefore, solving eq.(1) for N, we find

N=W=14,700 N

14. a ball is thrown horizontally from the roof of a building 75 m tall with a speed of 4.6 m/s. a. how much later does the ball
Burka [1]

The time taken to hit the ground is 3.9 s, the range is 18m and the final velocity is 42.82 m/s

<h3>Motion Under Gravity</h3>

The motion of an object under gravity is the vertical motion of the object under the influence of acceleration due to gravity.

Given that a ball is thrown horizontally from the roof of a building 75 m tall with a speed of 4.6 m/s.

a. how much later does the ball hit the ground?

The time can be calculated by considering the vertical component of the motion with the use of formula below.

h = ut + 1/2gt²

Where

  • Height h = 75 m
  • Initial velocity u = 0 ( vertical velocity )
  • Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s²
  • Time t = ?

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

75 = 0 + 1/2 × 9.8 × t²

75 = 4.9t²

t² = 75/4.9

t² = 15.30

t = √15.3

t = 3.9 s

b. how far from the building will it land?

The range can be found by using the formula

R = ut

Where u = 4.6 m/s ( horizontal velocity )

R = 4.6 × 3.9

R = 18 m

c. what is the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground?

The final velocity will be

v = u + gt

v = 4.6 + 9.8 × 3.9

v = 4.6 + 38.22

v = 42.82 m/s

Therefore, the answers are 3.9 s, 18 m and 42.82 m/s
