For a body falling freely from rest (disregarding air resistance), the distance the body falls varies directly as the square o

jasenka [17]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The object would fall 57.625 m in the first 5 seconds

Explanation:

To solve the question, we note that

the height of fall = 490 ft = ‪149.352‬ m

Time to touch the ground = 7 seconds

We are required to find out how far the object falls in the first 5 seconds

We apply the relation

S = u·t + 0.5×g·t ² = We then have

‪149.352‬ = U×7+0.5*9.81*49 From where u = -13 m/s

Therefore to find how far it falls in the first 5 seconds, we have

-13*5 + 0.5*9.81*25 = 57.625 m

A 5.00-g bullet is fired into a 900-g block of wood suspended as a ballistic pendulum. The combined mass swings up to a height o

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The value is $KE_b =0.710 \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the bullet is $m_b = 5.00 \ g = 0.005 \ kg$

The mass of the wood is $m_w = 900 \ g = 0.90\ kg$

The height attained by the combined mass is $h = 8.0 \ cm = 0.08 \ m$

Generally according to the law of energy conservation

$KE _b = PE_c$

Here $KE_b$ is the kinetic energy of the bullet before collision.

and $PE_c$ is the potential energy of the combined mass of bullet and wood at the height h which is mathematically represented as

$PE_m = [m_b + m_w] * g * h$

$KE_b =PE_c = [0.005 + 0.90] * 9.8 *0.08$

=> $KE_b =0.710 \ J$

Manuel is holding a 5kg box. How much force is the box exerting on him?In what direction

soldi70 [24.7K]

The force the box is exerting on Manuel is the weight of the box, downward:
$W=mg=(5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=49.05 N$
and this force is perfectly balanced by the constraint reaction applied by Manuel's hand, pushing upward.

The wind pushes a paper cub along the sand at a beach. The cup has a mass of 25 grams (= ? Kg's) and accelerates at a rate of 5

bixtya [17]

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

= (0.025 kg) x (5 m/s²)

= 0.125 Newton

Jenny was applying her makeup when she drove into the student parking lot last Friday morning . Unaware that Cheryl was stopped

Akimi4 [234]

Answer: F = 102141N

Explanation: Newton's 2nd Law states that a force can change the motion of a body. The relation is given by

F = m.a

whose units are:

[F] = N

[m] = kg

[a] = m/s²

Jenny's car, at the moment of the break, had acceleration:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

$a=\frac{11}{0.14}$

a = 78.57 m/s²

Then, Force is

F = 1300*78.57

F = 102141 N

Jenny's car experienced a force of magnitude 102141N.
