Answer:

option A

Explanation:

given,                                              

height of the drop of stone = 9.44 m

speed of the stone = ?                          

As the stone is dropped the energy of the stone will be conserved.

using conservation of energy.            

Potential energy = Kinetic energy    

m g h = \dfrac{1}{2} m v^2  

     v = \sqrt{2gh}                  

     v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 9.44}

     v = \sqrt{185.024}              

            v = 13.60 m/s                      

Hence, the correct answer is option A

give an example of situation in which an automobile driver can have a centripetal acceleration but no tangential speed
Mars2501 [29]

There is no need for tangential acceleration when moving in a circle at a constant speed.

<h3>What is centripetal acceleration?</h3>

centripetal acceleration refers to the speed at which a body moves through a circle. Due to the fact that velocity is a vector quantity (i.e., it has both a magnitude, the speed, and a direction), when a body travels in a circle, its direction is constantly changing, which causes a change in velocity, which results in an acceleration.

<h3>Which is an example of centripetal acceleration?</h3>

Centripetal acceleration occurs when you spin a ball on a string above your head. A car experiences centripetal acceleration when it is being driven in a circle. Additionally, a satellite in orbit around the Earth experiences centripetal acceleration.

What is sedentary lifestyle?
Effectus [21]
A sedentary lifestyle is when you don't make any exercise. For example, if I spent a whole week just sitting down answering questions, that would be an example of a sedentary lifestyle, because I'm not running or jogging. Having that type of lifestyle can make you fat and get health problems.

Have a nice day! :)

When a gas is cooled, the particles begin to move more______(Quickly/slowly). When the temperature drops below the____ (melting
bija089 [108]
Slowly; Boiling Point; Decrease; Decrease; Vibrate in place.

As temperature drops, so does thermal energy, and particle motion drops. The same trends in temperature, thermal energy, and motion applys to phases in decreasing order: gas>liquid>solid. The particle motion is always vibrations in place for solids because they are very tightly packed compared to liquids and gases.

A rock falls from rest off a cliff and hits the ground in 2 seconds. If there is no air resistance, determine the rock's velocit
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

19.6m/s

Explanation:

A Rock falling off a cliff can be modeled as an object starting with  zero velocity moves with constant acceleration for certain period of time, for such motion following equation of motion can be used.

v(t) = v_{0} +at

here in our case v_{0} =0 because object starts off from rest and a = g =9.8m/s^2 is acceleration because of gravity ( Motion under gravity).

and of course t = 2 second.

Now by substituting all this information in equation of motion we get.

v(2s) = 0+9.8m/s^2 *2s = 19.6m/s

that would be the velocity of rock as it would hit the ground.

Note! We have assumed that there is no air resistance.

<h3>2 Answers:</h3>

a) Velocity is a vector quantity

e) Velocity is a speed with direction

=================================================

Explanation:

If we know the velocity of an object, then we know how fast it's going (speed) and where it's going (direction). It is a vector because the direction of the vector determines the direction, and the length of the vector (aka magnitude) determines the speed. So in a sense we've built in two facts of data into one visual.

An example of velocity: 10 miles per hour north. Here we have the speed of 10 mph and the direction north.

-------------------

Extra info:

  • Choice B contradicts choice A, so we can cross choice B off the list.
  • Choice C is false because speed is a scalar, or single quantity, and not a vector. As mentioned earlier, speed is a part of velocity, but they aren't the same exact thing.
  • Choice D is false because the velocity does not account for net force. We don't have any force information built into the velocity.
