If an object falls for 4 seconds, how fast is it going when it hits the ground?

Acceleration due to gravity is about 9.8 m/s²

So after every second, the speed increase by 9.8 m/s

After 1 second, the object would fall at a speed of 9.8 m/s

After 2 seconds the object would fall at a speed of 19.6 m/s

So after 4 seconds, the object is going to be at a speed of:

9.8 x 4 = 39.2 m/s

-------------------------------------------------

<u>Answer</u>

39.2 m/s

Consider a 100 g object dropped from a height of 1 m. Assuming no air friction (drag), when will the object hit the ground and a
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

speed and time are Vf = 4.43 m/s and  t = 0.45 s

Explanation:

This is a problem of free fall, we have the equations of kinematics

      Vf² = Vo² + 2g x

As the object is released the initial velocity is zero, let's look at the final velocity with the equation

      Vf = √( 2 g X)

      Vf = √(2 9.8  1)

      Vf = 4.43 m/s

This is the speed with which it reaches the ground

 

Having the final speed we can find the time

      Vf = Vo + g t

       t = Vf / g

       t = 4.43 / 9.8

       t = 0.45 s

This is the time of fall of the body to touch the ground

A 1560-kilogram truck moving with a speed of 28.0 m/s runs into the rear end of a 1070-kilogram stationary car. If the collision
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Δ KE =  249158.6 kJ  

Explanation:

given data

Truck mass  M =  1560 Kg

Truck initial speed, u = 28 m/s

mass of car m = 1070 Kg

initial speed of car u1 = 0 m/s

solution

first we get here final speed by using conservation of momentum  that is express as

Mu = (M+m) V     .......................1

put here  value we get

1560 × 28 = (1560 + 1070 ) V

solve it we get

final speed V = 16.60 m/s

and

Change in kinetic energy  will be here

Δ KE =   \frac{1}{2} Mu^2 - \frac{1}{2}(M+m)V^2         .................2

put here value and we get

 Δ KE = \frac{1}{2}\times 1560\times 28^2 - \frac{1}{2}\times (1560 + 1070)\times 16.60^2  

solve it we get

Δ KE =  249158.6 kJ

A person is filling a knee-high bucket with water using a garden hose and holding it such that water discharges from the hose at
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Yes i am agree with this suggestion

Explanation:

Given that we have to assume that there is no any frictional affects.

As we know that when height increases then the discharge level will decreases when discharge level decreases then the time of filling for the bucket will increase.So the  bucket will fill faster if the hose lowered until knee level.

Yes i am agree with this suggestion
