It was a man named <span>Johannes Kepler. </span>
Distance fallen = 1/2 ( V initial + V final ) *t
We know
a = -9.8 m/s2
t=120s
To find distance fallen, we need to find V final
Use the equation
V final = V initial + a*t
Substitute known values
V final = 0 + (-9.8)(120)
V final = -1176 m/s
Then plug known values to distance fallen equation
Distance fallen = 1/2 ( 0 + 1176 )(120)
= 1/2(1776)(120)
=106,560 m
This way plugging into distance equation is actually the long way. A faster way is to plug the values into
Distance fallen = V initial * t + 1/2(a*t)
We won't need to find V final using another equation.
But anyways, good luck!
Answer:
Ax = 0
Ay = 6 m
Bx = 8 cos phi = cos 34 = 6.63 m
By = 8 sin phi = 8 sin (-34) = -4.47 m
Rx = Ax + Bx = 0 + 6.63 = 6.63 m
Ry = Ay + By = 6 - 4.47 = 1.53 m
R = (6.63^2 + 1.53^2)^1/2 = 6.80 m
tan theta = Ry / Rx = 1.53 / 6.8 = ,225
theta = 12.7 deg
Explanation:
Fluids exert both drag and lift forces on moving objects. Drag is the frictional force opposing motion. Lift is the force perpendicular to motion.
Some objects, like parachutes, are designed with large cross sectional areas to increase drag force. Usually though, objects are designed to minimize drag force. It's why cars, planes, and boats have sleek shapes.
Airplane wings have shapes called airfoils that generate lift. It's what makes them fly. The same shape is found in racecar spoilers. These spoilers use lift force to push down on the rear tires, increasing traction.
Answer:
2000 kg m/s
Explanation:
The momentum of an object is a vector quantity whose magnitude is given by
where
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of the object
and its direction is the same as the velocity.
In this problem, we have:
- Spaceship 1 has
m = 200 kg (mass)
v = 0 m/s (zero velocity)
So its momentum is
- Spaceship 2 has
m = 200 kg (mass)
v = 10 m/s (velocity)
So its momentum is
Therefore, the combined momentum of the two spaceships is
