If an object is dropped from a height of meters, the velocity (in ) at impact is given by v= √2gh , where g=9.8m/sec^2 is the ac

celeration due to gravity.
Required:
a. Determine the impact velocity for an object dropped from a height of 10 m.
b. Determine the height required for an object to have an impact velocity of 26.8 m/sec (~ 60 mph). Round to the nearest tenth of a meter.

Answer:

A.) V = 14 m/s

B.) h = 36.6 m

Explanation:

Given the formula v = √2gh

where g = 9.8m/sec^2 is the acceleration due to gravity.

A.) Determine the impact velocity for an object dropped from a height of 10 m.

Substitute height h in the given formula

V = √2gh 

V = √2 × 9.8 × 10

V = √196

V = 14 m/s

b. Determine the height required for an object to have an impact velocity of 26.8 m/sec (~ 60 mph). Round to the nearest tenth of a meter.

Substitute the velocity in the given formula and make height h the subject of formula.

26.8 = √2 × 9.8 × h

Square both sides

718.24 = 19.6h

h = 718.24 / 19.6

h = 36.64 m

h = 36.6 m

What requirement must a force acting on a object satisfy in order for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Simple harmonic motion is the movement of a body or an object to and from an equilibrium position. In a simple harmonic motion, the maximum displacement (also called the amplitude) on one side of the equilibrium position is equal to the maximum displacement.

The force acting on an object must satisfy Hooke's law for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion. The law states that the force must be directed always towards the equilibrium position and also directly proportional to the distance from this position.

Two pianos each sound the same note simultaneously, but they are both out of tune. On a day when the speed of sound is 349 m/s,
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

Time period between the successive beats will be 0.1703 sec

Explanation:

We have given speed of the sound v = 349 m/sec

Wavelength of piano A\lambda _A=0.766m

Wavelength of piano  B\lambda _B=0.776m

So frequency of piano A f_1=\frac{v}{\lambda _1}=\frac{349}{0.766}=455.61Hz

Frequency of piano B f_2=\frac{v}{\lambda _1}=\frac{349}{0.776}=449.74Hz

So beat frequency f = 455.61 - 449.74 = 5.87 Hz

So time period T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{5.87}=0.1703sec

So time period between the successive beats will be 0.1703 sec

Which tool would you use to measure the amount of rainfall? a. graduated cylinder b. stopwatch c. scale d. thermometer
Fittoniya [83]

A graduated cylinder measures the volume of a liquid.

A stopwatch measures the amount of time that elapses.

A scale measures the mass of objects.

A thermometer measures the temperature of any object.

Because we are measuring rain, a liquid, we would want to use a tool that would allow us to collect the rain for measuring. Therefore, the tool e would use to measure the amount of rainfall would be A. a graduated cylinder.

Nearly all conventional piston engines have flywheels on them to smooth out engine vibrations caused by the thrust of individual
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

This is because, the flywheel has a very large moment of Inertia and hence sudden piston torques have negligible effect on the flywheel, but every piston combined has a significant torque. This smoothens out the vibrations.
