In an experiment, an object is released from rest from the top of a building. Its speed is measured as it reaches a point that i

s a distance d from the point of release. If this distance was doubled, what would the new speed be, assuming air resistance is negligible?

Answer:

so the speed will increase by 1.44 times then the initial speed if the distance is increased to double

Explanation:

As we know that the air friction or resistance due to air is neglected then we can use the equation of kinematics here

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

since we released it from rest so we have

v_i = 0

so here we have

v_f = \sqrt{2gd}

now if the distance is double then we have

v_f' = \sqrt{2g(2d)}

now from above two equations we can say that

v_f' = \sqrt2 v_f

so the speed will increase by 1.44 times then the initial speed if the distance is increased to double

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer: a. a leaping frog

Explanation: In a projectile motion the object must have a certain path or trajectory with respect to a certain angle. For the leaping frog its velocity can be resolve into components having the final velocity at the highest point to be zero.

What is the magnitude of velocity for a 2,000 kg car possessing 3,000 kg(*)m/s of momentum?
Trava [24]

The magnitude of velocity for this car is equal to 1.5 m/s.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Momentum of car = 3,000 kgm/s.
  • Mass of car = 2,000 kg.

To calculate the magnitude of velocity for this car:

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

In Science, momentum simply means a multiplication of the mass of an object and its velocity.

Mathematically, momentum is giving by the formula;

Momentum = mass \times velocity

Making velocity the subject of formula, we have:

Velocity=\frac{Momentum}{Mass}

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Velocity=\frac{3000}{2000}

Velocity = 1.5 m/s.

Si tenemos tres cubos del mismo tamaño (hierro, madera e icopor). ¿Qué diferencias puede encontrar entre ellos?
cricket20 [7]

Answer: La diferencia es el peso (o la masa), siendo que el cubo de hierro es el mas pesado, después viene el de madera y después el de icopor.

Explanation:

Ok, los 3 cubos tienen el mismo tamaño, lo que implica que tienen el mismo volumen.

Ahora es útil recordar la relación:

Densidad = masa/volumen.

Masa = densidad*volumen.

Nosotros sabemos que la densidad del hierro es mas grande que la de la madera, y la densidad de la madera es mas grande que la del icopor.

Entonces, por la relación anterior, y sabiendo que todos los cubos tienen el mismo volumen, podemos reconocer que el cubo de hierro tiene mayor masa, después viene el de madera y después viene el de icopor.

Y sabiendo que:

masa*gravedad = peso

podemos saber que el cubo mas pesado es el de hierro, después el de madera y después el de icopor.

Además de esta diferencia, también hay otras que no dependen tanto del tamaño del objeto, como pueden ser las capacidades caloríficas, el como reaccionan a campos eléctricos y cosas así que son triviales, pues son diferentes para casi todos los materiales.

What is light? Makes thing visible?
Alecsey [184]

Yes, light enters your eye and makes things visible. It's only a small portion of the elctromagnetic spectrum. It's called "visible light." What other things does the question want to know? I could go in a describe what light really is but I think itd be unnecessary.
