A flea jumps straight up to a maximum height of 0.550 m . what is its initial velocity v0 as it leaves the ground?

1 answer:

3 0

Since my givens are x = .550m [Vsub0] = unknown
[Asubx] = =9.80

[Vsubx]^2 = [Vsub0x]^2 + 2[Asubx] * (X-[Xsub0]

[Vsubx]^2 = [Vsub0x]^2 + 2[Asubx] * (X-[Xsub0])

Vsubx is the final velocity, which at the max height is 0, and Xsub0 is just 0 as that's where it starts so I just plug the rest in

0^2 = [Vsub0x]^2 + 2[-9.80]*(.550)

0 = [Vsub0x]^2 -10.78

10.78 = [Vsub0x]^2

Sqrt(10.78) = 3.28 m/s

A 3.0kg mass tied to a string

dem82 [27]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Tension \ in \ the \ string \ (T) = 3 \ kN}$

Given:

Mass (m) = 3.0 kg

Uniform speed (v) = 20 m/s

Length of string (r) = 40 cm = 0.4 m

To Find:

Tension in the string (T)

Explanation:

Tension (T) is the string will be equal to centripetal force ( $\sf F_c$ ).

$\boxed{ \bold{ T = F_c = \frac{m {v}^{2} }{r} }}$

Substituting value of m, v & r in the equation:

$\sf \implies T = \frac{3 \times {20}^{2} }{0.4} \\ \\ \sf \implies T = \frac{3 \times 400}{0.4} \\ \\ \sf \implies T =3 \times 1000 \\ \\ \sf \implies T =3000 \: N \\ \\ \sf \implies T =3 \: kN$

$\therefore$

Tension in the string (T) = 3 kN

1. A sprinter races in the 100 meter dash. It takes him 10 second to reach the finish line

poizon [28]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m

Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s

We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v = d/t

$v=\dfrac{100\ m}{10\ s}\\\\v=10\ m/s$

Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.

Where does the majority of the mass of an atom come from

asambeis [7]

Answer:

The Nucleus

Explanation:

The nucleus contains the majority of an atom's mass because protons and neutrons are much heavier than electrons, whereas electrons occupy almost all of an atom's volume. I hope this helps you :D

Which measure of an earthquake depends on how close you are to the focus?

Vsevolod [243]

<span>The intensity of an earthquake is dependent on one's proximity to the focus of the quake, also called the "epicenter" and is based on observations of the shaking of the ground on humans, structures, and the natural landscape.</span>
