A stone is dropped from rest from the top of a cliff into a pond below. If its initial height is 10 m, what is its speed when it

hits the water?
Physics
1 answer:
Brut [27]3 years ago

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the stone is a free fall motion, so an accelerated motion with constant acceleration g = 9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. So, we can use the following SUVAT equation:

v^2 -u^2 = 2gh

where

v is the final speed of the stone as it reaches the water

u = 0 is the initial speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

h = 10 m is the distance covered by the stone

Solving for v, we find

v=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{0+2(9.8 m/s^2)(10 m)}=14 m/s

A bike rider was moving to the right at a constant speed. Suddenly the wind then starts blowing against her with 3 N of force to
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

This question can be better understood when discussed using the Newton's first law of motion which states that an object would continue to move with a uniform speed (in a straight line) unless acted upon by an external force. What happens here (in the question) is that the bike rider would have continued moving at a constant speed (to the right) if not for the opposing force of the wind that acted against her (to the left). <u>This wind/force would cause her speed to reduce or slow down (as posited by the law)</u>.

How long will it take to fall 50 m?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

down below

Explanation:

Since we aren't the given the time, lets say that an object to 25 seconds to fall 50 meters. We can use the formula [ s = d/t ] to solve.

s = 50/25

s = 2

Therefore, the object was falling at a rate of 2 meters per second.

Best of Luck!

Sophia is planning on going down an 8-m water slide. Her weight is 50 N. She knows that she has gravitational potential energy (
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

graph would be a straight line from (0, 0) to (400, 8)

Plot points are

PE = mgh

50(0) = 0 J

50(2) = 100 J

50(4) = 200 J

50(6) = 300 J

50(8) = 400 J

Is the relationship between velocity and centripetal force a direct, linear or nonlinear square relationship?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

non linear square relationship

Explanation:

formula for centripetal force is given as

a = mv^2/r

here a ic centripetal acceleration , m is mass of body moving in circle of radius r and v is velocity of body . If m ,and r are constant we have

a = constant × v^2

a α v^2

hence non linear square relationship
