You hold block A with a mass of 1 kg in one hand and block B with a mass of 2 kg in the other. You release them both from the sa

me height above the ground at the same time. (Air resistance can safely be ignored as they fall.) Which of the following describes and explains the motion of the two objects after you release them?
A) Before A hits the ground before the block B. The same force of gravity acts on both objects, but because block A has a lower mass, it will have a larger acceleration
B) Block B hits the ground before the block A. The larger force on block B causes it to have a greater acceleration than block A
C) The two blocks hit the ground at the same time, because they both ackelerate at the same rate while falling. The greater gravitational force on block B is compersated giving it the same acceleration
D) The two blocks hit the ground at the same time because they move at the same constant speed while falling.The force on the blocks are irrelevent once they start falling

a physics student throws a stone horizontally off a cliff. one second later, he throws a second identical stone in exactly the s
Virty [35]

The second stone hits the ground exactly one second after the first.

The distance traveled by each stone down the cliff is calculated using second kinematic equation;

h = v_0_yt + \frac{1}{2} gt^2

where;

  • <em>t is the time of motion </em>
  • <em />v_0_y<em> is the initial vertical velocity of the stone = 0</em>

h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2

The time taken by the first stone to hit the ground is calculated as;

t_1 = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

When compared to the first stone, the time taken by the second stone to hit the ground after 1 second it was released is calculated as

t_2 = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } + 1

t_2 = t_1 + 1

Thus, we can conclude that the second stone hits the ground exactly one second after the first.

"<em>Your question is not complete, it seems be missing the following information;"</em>

A. The second stone hits the ground exactly one second after the first.

B. The second stone hits the ground less than one second after the first

C. The second stone hits the ground more than one second after the first.

D. The second stone hits the ground at the same time as the first.

If the mass of the ladder is 12.0 kgkg, the mass of the painter is 55.0 kgkg, and the ladder begins to slip at its base when her
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

 μ = 0.336

Explanation:

We will work on this exercise with the expressions of transactional and rotational equilibrium.

Let's start with rotational balance, for this we set a reference system at the top of the ladder, where it touches the wall and we will assign as positive the anti-clockwise direction of rotation

          fr L sin θ - W L / 2 cos θ - W_painter 0.3 L cos θ  = 0

          fr sin θ  - cos θ  (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter) = 0

          fr = cotan θ  (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter)

Now let's write the equilibrium translation equation

     

X axis

        F1 - fr = 0

        F1 = fr

the friction force has the expression

       fr = μ N

Y Axis

       N - W - W_painter = 0

       N = W + W_painter

       

we substitute

      fr = μ (W + W_painter)

we substitute in the endowment equilibrium equation

     μ (W + W_painter) = cotan θ  (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter)

      μ = cotan θ (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter) / (W + W_painter)

we substitute the values ​​they give

      μ = cotan θ  (12/2 + 0.3 55) / (12 + 55)

      μ = cotan θ  (22.5 / 67)

      μ = cotan tea (0.336)

To finish the problem, we must indicate the angle of the staircase or catcher data to find the angle, if we assume that the angle is tea = 45

       cotan 45 = 1 / tan 45 = 1

the result is

    μ = 0.336

An object is placed 18 cm in front of spherical mirror.if the image is formed at 4cm to the right of the mirror, calculate it's
ivolga24 [154]
1) Focal length

We can find the focal length of the mirror by using the mirror equation:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i} (1)
where 
f is the focal length
d_o is the distance of the object from the mirror
d_i is the distance of the image from the mirror

In this case, d_o = 18 cm, while d_i=-4 cm (the distance of the image should be taken as negative, because the image is to the right (behind) of the mirror, so it is virtual). If we use these data inside (1), we find the focal length of the mirror:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{18 cm}- \frac{1}{4 cm}=- \frac{7}{36 cm}
from which we find
f=- \frac{36}{7} cm=-5.1 cm

2) The mirror is convex: in fact, for the sign convention, a concave mirror has positive focal length while a convex mirror has negative focal length. In this case, the focal length is negative, so the mirror is convex.

3) The image is virtual, because it is behind the mirror and in fact we have taken its distance from the mirror as negative.

4) The radius of curvature of a mirror is twice its focal length, so for the mirror in our problem the radius of curvature is:
r=2f=2 \cdot 5.1 cm=10.2 cm

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

A) T.

Explanation:

Kepler's third law states that the orbital period (T) of a satellite is related with the radius (R) and the mass of the object (M) it orbits:

T=\frac{2\pi R^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\sqrt{GM}}  

So the orbital period is independent of the mass of the satellite, that means no matter the mass every satellite at a radius R around the earth have an orbital period A.
