Answer:

A rock dropped from the ceiling of a truck's cargo bay, with the truck moving at constant velocity, the rock strikes the floor exactly below the midpoint of the ceiling.

Explanation:

An object moving at a constant velocity, is changing its displacement at an equal time.That is, the object is moving on a straight line at a constant speed.

Also an object with a constant velocity is not accelerating, since acceleration is the change in velocity with respect to time.

Therefore, A rock dropped from the ceiling of a truck's cargo bay, with the truck moving at constant velocity, the rock strikes the floor exactly below the midpoint of the ceiling.

Assume (unrealistically) that a TV station acts as a point source broadcasting isotropically at 3.2 MW. What is the intensity of
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

I=1.5\times10^{-28}W/m^2

Explanation:

The intensity is related to the power and surface area by I=\frac{P}{A}=\frac{P}{4\pi r^2}. We need to calculate the surface area of a sphere of radius r=4.3ly.

Since 4.3ly is the distance light travels in 4.3 years at 299792458m/s, we can obtain it in meters by doing:

r=vt=(299792458m/s)(4.3\times365\times24\times60\times60s)=4.1\times10^{16}m

So we have:

I=\frac{P}{4\pi r^2}=\frac{3.2\times10^6W}{4\pi (4.1\times10^{16}m)^2}=1.5\times10^{-28}W/m^2

Help with physics projectile motion​
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

10.4 m/s

Explanation:

First, find the time it takes for the projectile to fall 6 m.

Given:

y₀ = 6 m

y = 0 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: t

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

(0 m) = (6 m) + (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.11 s

Now find the horizontal position of the target after that time:

Given:

x₀ = 6 m

v₀ = 5 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 1.11 s

Find: x

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = (6 m) + (5 m/s) (1.11 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.11 s)²

x = 11.5 m

Finally, find the launch velocity needed to travel that distance in that time.

Given:

x₀ = 0 m

x = 11.5 m

t = 1.11 s

a = 0 m/s²

Find: v₀

(11.5 m) = (0 m) + v₀ (1.11 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.11 s)²

v₀ = 10.4 m/s
