E the temperature of a substance. Water has a very high specific heat. That means it needs to absorb a lot of energy before its temperature changes. Sand , on the other hand, have lower specific heats. This means that their temperatures change more quickly. When the summer sun shines down on them, they quickly become hot.

A glass falls from a table top and smashes on the floor 0.6 seconds later. How high is the table?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

1.8 m

Explanation:

Given: Glass falls from a table, smashes 0.6 seconds later

To find: How high a table is

Formula: Vv=gt, dv=1/2gt^2, t=2d/g

Solution: A table's <em>height</em> is measured from the top of the edge down to the floor. The tables are shown both have a height of 30 inches, which is common for many tables.

<u>Data</u>

  • t = 0.6s
  • g = 9.81 m/s²
  • d = ?

<u>Equation</u>

  • d = \frac{1}{2}gt²

<u>Math & Units</u>

  • d = 4.905 (0.6²)
  • d = 442.676

Hence the table is 1.8 m high

kvasek [131]

Answer:

a) a= \frac{4 \pi^2 (0.02 m)^2}{0.00162 s}=9.74 \frac{m}{s^2}

b) k = \frac{9.8}{9.74}=1.006

Explanation:

Part a

For this case we can begin finding the period like this:

T= \frac{1}{w} =\frac{1}{617 rad/s}=0.00162 s

Then we know that the centripetal acceleration is given by:

a= \frac{v^2}{r}

And the velocity is given by:

v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}

If we replace this into the acceleration we got:

a = \frac{(\frac{2\pi r}{T})^2}{r}= \frac{4 \pi^2 r}{T^2}

And we can replace the values and we got:

a= \frac{4 \pi^2 (0.02 m)^2}{0.00162 s}=9.74 \frac{m}{s^2}

Part b

For this case we want to find a value of k such that:

a= k 9.8

Where a = 9.74, so then we can solve for k like this:

k = \frac{9.8}{9.74}=1.006
