A seaside cliff is 30 m above the ocean surface, and Sam is standing at the edge of the cliff. Sam has three identical stones. T

he first stone he throws off the cliff at 30° above the horizontal. The second stone he throws vertically downward into the ocean. The third stone he drops into the ocean.
1. In terms of magnitude, which stone has the largest change in its velocity over a one second time interval after its release? (Sam’s throwing speed is 10 m/s.)

Answer:

In terms of magnitude, the stones 2 and 3 have the largest change in its velocity over a one second time interval after their release.

Explanation:

Stone 1:

vi = 10 m/s

vix = vi*Cos ∅ = (10 m/s)*Cos 30° = 8.66 m/s = vx

viy = vi*Sin ∅ = (10 m/s)*Sin 30° = 5 m/s

vy = viy - g*t = (5 m/s) - (9.8m/s²)*(1 s) = -4.8

then

v = √(vx²+vy²) = √((8.66)²+(-4.8)²) = 9.90 m/s

Δv = v - vi = 9.902 m/s - 10 m/s

⇒ Δv = -0.098 m/s

Stone 2:

vi = 10 m/s

v = vi + g*t = (10 m/s) + (9.8m/s²)*(1 s) = 19.8 m/s

Δv = v - vi = (19.8 m/s) - (10 m/s)

⇒ Δv = 9.8 m/s

Stone 3:

vi = 0 m/s

v = g*t = (9.8m/s²)*(1 s) = 9.8 m/s

Δv = v - vi = (9.8 m/s) - (0 m/s)

⇒ Δv = 9.8 m/s

Finally, in terms of magnitude, the stones 2 and 3 have the largest change in its velocity over a one second time interval after their release.

What is the acceleration of the object?<br>______ m/s2

professor190 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

this graph show the decrease in velocity with time

at time t=0 velocity is 40 m/sec

at time t=12sec velocity is decreases from 40 to 10 m/s

so the acceleration of the object at time=12 sec is

a=v/t

a=Δv/t

Δv=v1-v2=40-10=30 m/s

a=30/12=2.5 m/s^2

which of these statements best explains why the difference between summer and winter temperatures is greatet in Russia thanin FL

MaRussiya [10]

I don't know your statement, but one explanation for this is that Russia is mostly located on land, away from water and Florida is surrounded by water.

Water takes up the heat from the environment, so it has the effect of making the temperatures of objects around it milder: cooling down when hot, warming up when too cold.

a rugby player passes the ball 5.34 m across the field, where it is caught at the same height as it left his hand. at what angle

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

$31.035^{\circ}$

Explanation:

x = Displacement in x direction = 5.34 m

t = Time taken to travel the displacement

y = Displacement in y direction = 0

u = Initial velocity of ball = 7.7 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.81\ \text{m/s}^2$

Displacement in x direction is given by

$x=u\cos\theta t\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{5.34}{7.7 \cos\theta}$

Displacement in y direction is given by

$y=u\sin\theta t-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\Rightarrow 0=7.7\sin\theta \dfrac{5.34}{7.7\cos\theta}-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81 (\dfrac{5.34}{7.7\cos\theta})^2\\\Rightarrow 0=7.7\sin\theta-4.905\times \dfrac{5.34}{7.7\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow 0=7.7^2\sin\theta \cos\theta-4.905\times 5.34\\\Rightarrow 0=7.7^2\dfrac{\sin2\theta}{2}-4.905\times 5.34\\\Rightarrow 0=7.7^2\sin2\theta-4.905\times5.34\times 2\\\Rightarrow \sin2\theta=\dfrac{4.905\times 5.34\times 2}{7.7^2}\\\Rightarrow 2\theta=\sin^{-1}\dfrac{4.905\times 5.34\times 2}{7.7^2}$

$\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{62.07}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=31.035^{\circ}$

The angle at which the ball was thrown is $31.035^{\circ}$ .
