20 points, just need a basic understanding. You are on a mystery planet, what you know is that from a height of 10.0 meters, a d
ICE Princess25 [194]

(since you asked for basic understanding only, I am not including actual calculations. Please let me know in the comments section if you wish to verify your solution(s))

For (b): Use the formula for distance (s) made during an accelerated motion:

s = \frac{1}{2}at^2+ v_0t+s_0= \frac{1}{2}at^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2

with v_0 and s_0 being the initial velocity and distance, both 0 in this case, and with "a" denoting the acceleration, in this case  solely due to gravitational acceleration so: "g."

You are given the distance made, namely 10 m, and the duration t (0.88s) and so using the formula above you can solve for g.

For (c), to determine the final velocity at time 0.88s use the formula for the instantaneous velocity of an accelerated motion

(velocity at time t) = (acceleration) x (time)  

again, with acceleration due to gravity, i.e., a = g and with g as determined under (b).  

If my calculation is correct, this mystery planet could be the Jupiter.

An object at rest has equal forces acting on it. This can be described as a(n) _____________ force.
san4es73 [151]
Answer. Balanced
Explanation. Balanced forces provides an equal reaction to each action. For example, if you push on a wall, your hand isn’t going to go through. This is because the push is equal to the pull and the forces are balanced.
Hope this helped, let me know if it’s correct so others can use it :)
Good luck

vampirchik [111]
Power = (voltage) x (current). The motor consumes (12)x(206)=2,472 watts. Some of it is dissipated as heat, but most of it is used to do useful work by turning the engine over to make it start.

How do you think the liquid density affects the buoyancy of objects placed in the liquid?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

density can be written as:

d = F / V  (weight density) or M / V (mass density)

Since F in the first equation can be written as

B = d V where B is the buoyant force and is proportional to the

weight of the liquid displaced

For a given volume the weight of the liquid displaced is proportional to the density and hence the buoyant force
