A log is floating on swiftly moving water. A stone is dropped from rest from a 50.8-m-high bridge and lands on the log as it pas

ses under the bridge. If the log moves with a constant speed of 5.36 m/s, what is the horizontal distance between the log and the bridge when the stone is released?

Answer:

Horizontal distance between the log and the bridge when the stone is released = 17.24 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of bridge, h = 50.8 m

Speed of log = 5.36 m/s

We need to find the horizontal distance between the log and the bridge when the stone is released, for that first we need to find time taken by the stone to reach on top of log,

We have equation of motion. s = ut + 0.5 at²

       Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

       Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²

       Displacement, s = 50.8 m

Substituting,

                  s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 50.8 = 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

                     t = 3.22 seconds,

So log travels 3.22 seconds at a speed of 5.36 m/s after the release of stone,

We have equation of motion. s = ut + 0.5 at²

       Initial velocity, u = 5.36 m/s

       Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²

       Time, t = 3.22 s

Substituting,

                  s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 s = 5.36 x 3.22 + 0.5 x 0 x 3.22²

                    s = 17.24 m

Horizontal distance between the log and the bridge when the stone is released = 17.24 m

Work backward to find the value of the variable in the equation below d-4=23
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is a onestep equation, so in order to find the variable, follow these steps:

d - 4 = 23

In order to isolate the variable or get the variable by itself, you need to get rid of the constants around it or the numbers without a variable. In order to do that for this equation, you'll need to do the inverse of subtracting 4, which would be adding four to both sides.

Adding 4 to positive 23 will give you the answer of 27;

d = 27

Therefore, the variable d equals 27

Hope this helps!
