A rock is thrown straight downward from a tree limb with an initial velocity v0. The rock has constant downward acceleration of

10 m/s2 during its fall. The rock moves 7 times as far during the first 3 seconds as during the first 1 second of fall. What is the value (magnitude only) of v0?

Answer:

v₀ = 15 m/s

Explanation:

given,

initial velocity = v₀

down acceleration of rock = 10 m/s²

rock distance

  S₄ = 7 x S₁

From kinematic equations

S = v₀ t+0.5 at²

at t = 1 s

S₁ = v₀ (1)+0.5 x 10 x 1²

S₁ = v₀+ 5......(1)

at t = 4 s

 S₄ = v₀ (4)+0.5 x 10 x 4²

 S₄ = 4 v₀+80.....(2)

from equation (1) and  (2)  

7( v₀ + 5 ) = 4 v₀ +80

3 v₀ = 80 - 35

3 v₀ = 45

v₀ = 15 m/s

A small lightbulb is 1.06 m from a screen. A) If you have a convex lens with 20 cm focal length, where are the two lens location
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A)Explanation:

Let object distance be u.

Image distance v = 1.06 - u

Focal length = 20 cm = .2 m

Applying lens formula

1 / v - 1 / u = 1 / f

1 /( 1.06-u)  - 1 / u = 1 / .2

5 u² -3.3u - 1.06 =0

It will have two roots

u₁ = .1636 m, u₂ = .8964 m

B ) Magnification

= u = .1636m , v = .8964m

m = .8964 / .1636 = 5.48

C ) When u = .8964m ,v = .1634m

m = .1634 / .8964

=.182

Please Help!<br><br><br>What is inertia? What does inertia depend on?
Lemur [1.5K]
Inertia is that quantity which depends solely upon mass. The more mass, the more inertia. Momentum is another quantity in Physics which depends on both mass and speed.

Anni [7]
Suppose the stone is thrown at an angle of 39.0° below the horizontal from the same building as in the Example above. If it strikes the ground 47.8 m away, find the following. (Hint: For part (a), use the equation for the x-displacement to eliminate v0t from the equation for the y-displacement.)(a) the time of flight  sThe x coordinate as a function of time is x(t) = vcos(39.0)t, so the initial speed is v0 = Δx/(cos 39.0Δt), where Δx = 47.8 and Δt is the time of flight. Insert this into your equation for y(t) and solve for the time of flight. Note that the answer should be smaller than 3.16227766016838, since the stone is thrown down (and to the right).(b) the initial speed  m/s(c) the speed and angle of the velocity vector with respect to the horizontal at impactspeed  m/sangle °

Which statement is an example of the law of conservation of energy
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The law of conservation of energy can be seen in these everyday examples of energy transference: Water can produce electricity. Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy. This energy is then used to rotate the turbine of a generator to produce electricity.
