Answer:

C. 78.4 m/s

Explanation:

Kinematic analysis

Because the stone moves with uniformly accelerated movement in free fall we apply the following formula:

vf= v₀+gt Formula (1)

Where:  

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

vf: final speed in m/s  

g: acceleration  due to gravity in m/s²

Data

t = 8s

v₀= 0  

g= 9,8 m/s²

Problem development

We replace data in formula (1) to calculate the final velocity of the stone:

vf= v₀+gt

vf= 0+(9.8)(8)

vf= 78.4 m/s

Which of the following is NOT accelerating?
ivolga24 [154]
I would say the answer to your question is A Ferris wheel turning at a constant speed. The reasoning behind this answer is the fact that traveling in a constant direction at a constant speed is not accelerating. The Ferris wheel is the only option that fits this description. The last option would be incorrect due to independent causes such as speed limit changes as well as turns and stops on the highway.

TRUE or FALSE: During a collision between objects of different mass, there is a greater force applied to the less massive object
ddd [48]
If they are moving at the same speed then it would be true because the larger object would have more mass and would have more momentum then the smaller object that has less mass! Hope this helps!

nordsb [41]

Answer:

W=3456 N

Explanation:

Force 1 F_1=3456

Force 2 F_2=2333N

Acceleration at stage 2 a_2=0.39

Generally the weight of the Craft W is given as

W= upward force(thrust)

Therefore

W=3456 N
