If an object is thrown in an upward direction from the top of a building 160 ft. High at an initial speed of 21.82 mi/h what is

viktelen [127]

To solve this problem we are going to use tow kinematic equations for falling objects.
1. Kinematic equation for final velocity: $V_{f}=V_{i}+gt$
where
$V_{f}$ is the final velocity
$V_{i}$ is the initial velocity
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity $32 \frac{ft}{s^2}$
$t$ is the time
2. Kinematic equation for distance: $d=V_{i}t+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2$
where
$d$ is the distance
$V_{i}$ is the initial velocity
$V_{f}$ is the final velocity
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity $32 \frac{ft}{s^2}$
$t$ is the time

First, we are going to convert 21.82 mi/h to ft/s:
$21.82 \frac{mi}{h} =31.21 \frac{ft}{s}$

Next, we are going to use the first equation to find how long it takes for the rock to reach its maximum height.
We know for our problem that the object is thrown in upward direction, so its velocity at its maximum height (before falling again) will be zero; therefore: $V_{f}=0$ . We also know that it initial speed is 31.21 ft/s, so $V_{i}=31.21$ . Lets replace those values in our formula to find $t$ :
$V_{f}=V_{i}+gt$
$0=31.21+(-32)t$
$-32t=-31.21$
$t= \frac{-31.21}{-32}$
$t=0.98$ seconds

Next, we are going to use that time in our second kinematic equation to find the distance the object reach at its maximum height:
$d=V_{i}t+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2$
$d=31.21(0.98)+ \frac{1}{2} (-32)(0.98)^2$
$d=15.22$ ft

Now we can add the height of the building and the maximum height of the object:
$d=160+15.22=175.22$ ft

Next, we are going to use that height (distance) in our second kinematic equation one more time to fin how long it takes for the object to fall from its maximum height to the ground:
$d=V_{i}t+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2$
$175.22=31.21t+ \frac{1}{2} (32)t^2$
$16t^2+31.21t-175.22=0$
$t=2.47$ or $t=-4.43$
Since time cannot be negative, $t=2.47$ is the time it takes the object to fall to the ground.

Finally, we can use that time in our first kinematic equation to find the final speed of the object when it hits the ground:
$V_{f}=V_{i}+gt$
$V_{f}=31.21+(32)(2.47)$
$V_{f}=110.25$ ft/s

We can conclude that the speed of the object when it hits the ground is 110.25 ft/s

Calculate the equivalent of 20 degrees Celsius in degrees Fahrenheit and Kelvin.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

68 °F, 293.15 K

Explanation:

Fahrenheit, Kelvin and Celsius are the different scales of temperature in which temperature is measured.

Given : T = 20°C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

<u>T = (20 + 273.15) K = 293.15 K </u>

The conversion of T( °C) to T(F) is shown below:

T (°F) = (T (°C) × 9/5) + 32

So,

<u>T (°F) = (20 × 9/5) + 32 = 68 °F</u>

A 1 kg mass is attached to a spring with spring constant 7 Nt/m. What is the frequency of the simple harmonic motion? What is th

Scorpion4ik [409]

1. 0.42 Hz

The frequency of a simple harmonic motion for a spring is given by:

$f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

where

k = 7 N/m is the spring constant

m = 1 kg is the mass attached to the spring

Substituting these numbers into the formula, we find

$f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{7 N/m}{1 kg}}=0.42 Hz$

2. 2.38 s

The period of the harmonic motion is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency:

$T=\frac{1}{f}$

where f = 0.42 Hz is the frequency. Substituting into the formula, we find

$T=\frac{1}{0.42 Hz}=2.38 s$

3. 0.4 m

The amplitude in a simple harmonic motion corresponds to the maximum displacement of the mass-spring system. In this case, the mass is initially displaced by 0.4 m: this means that during its oscillation later, the displacement cannot be larger than this value (otherwise energy conservation would be violated). Therefore, this represents the maximum displacement of the mass-spring system, so it corresponds to the amplitude.

4. 0.19 m

We can solve this part of the problem by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact:

- When the mass is released from equilibrium position, the compression/stretching of the spring is zero: $x=0$ , so the elastic potential energy is zero, and all the mechanical energy of the system is just equal to the kinetic energy of the mass:

$E=K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where m = 1 kg and v = 0.5 m/s is the initial velocity of the mass

- When the spring reaches the maximum compression/stretching (x=A=amplitude), the velocity of the system is zero, so the kinetic energy is zero, and all the mechanical energy is just elastic potential energy:

$E=U=\frac{1}{2}kA^2$

Since the total energy must be conserved, we have:

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kA^2\\A=\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}v=\sqrt{\frac{1 kg}{7 N/m}}(0.5 m/s)=0.19 m$

5. Amplitude of the motion: 0.44 m

We can use again the law of conservation of energy.

- $E_i = \frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2$ is the initial mechanical energy of the system, with $x_0=0.4 m$ being the initial displacement of the mass and $v_0=0.5 m/s$ being the initial velocity

$- E_f = \frac{1}{2}kA^2$ is the mechanical energy of the system when x=A (maximum displacement)

Equalizing the two expressions, we can solve to find A, the amplitude:

$\frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}kA^2\\A=\sqrt{x_0^2+\frac{m}{k}v_0^2}=\sqrt{(0.4 m)^2+\frac{1 kg}{7 N/m}(0.5 m/s)^2}=0.44 m$

6. Maximum velocity: 1.17 m/s

We can use again the law of conservation of energy.

- $E_i = \frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2$ is the initial mechanical energy of the system, with $x_0=0.4 m$ being the initial displacement of the mass and $v_0=0.5 m/s$ being the initial velocity

$- E_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2$ is the mechanical energy of the system when x=0, which is when the system has maximum velocity, $v_{max}$

Equalizing the two expressions, we can solve to find $v_{max}$ , the maximum velocity:

$\frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2\\v_{max}=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x_0^2+v_0^2}=\sqrt{\frac{7 N/m}{1 kg}(0.4 m)^2+(0.5 m/s)^2}=1.17 m/s m$

Suppose that you are swimming in a river while a friend watches from the shore. In calm water, you swim at a speed of 1.25 m/s .

aliya0001 [1]

Answer: The observing friend will the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s.

Explanation:

Let <em>S</em> be the speed of the swimmer, given as 1.25 m/s

Let $S_{0}$ be the speed of the river's current given as 1.00 m/s.

Note that this speed is the magnitude of the velocity which is a vector quantity.

The direction of the swimmer is upstream.

Hence the resultant velocity is given as, $S_{R}$ = S — S 0 $S_{0}$

$S_{R}$ = 1.25 — 1

$S_{R}$ = 0.25 m/s.

Therefore, the observing friend will see the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s due to resistance produced by the current of the river.

Why heat capacity for polymer higher than metal?

jok3333 [9.3K]

Because polymers are covalently bonded material, and metals are metalicly bonded material.

Covalent bonds do not let atoms exchange electrons like metalic bonds do.
