A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of 4.0 — off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5 m horizontally
emmainna [20.7K]

Complete Question

A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of   4.0 m/s off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5m horizontally before it hits the ground. We can ignore air resistance.What is the pumpkin's vertical displacement during the throw? What is the pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground?

Answer:

The  pumpkin's vertical displacement  is  H = 27 .67 \ m

The  pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground is  v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  horizontal speed is  v_h  =  4 m/s

    The horizontal distance traveled is  d =  9.5 \ m

The horizontal distance traveled is mathematically represented as

           S =  v_h * t

Where t is the time taken

substituting values

          9.5 =  4 * t

   =>     t =  \frac{9.5}{4}

            t = 2.38 \ sec

Now the vertical displacement is mathematically represented as

        H  =  v_v t  +  \frac{1}{2} a_v t^2

now the vertical velocity before the throw is  zero

    So

          H =  0 +  \frac{1}{2} (9.8) * (2.375)^2

          H = 27 .67 \ m

Now the final vertical velocity  is mathematically represented as

          v_v__{f}} =  v_v + at

  substituting values

             v_v__{f}} =  0 + (9.8)* (2.375)

            v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \  m/s

An astronaut throws a wrench in interstellar space. How much force is required to keep the wrench moving continuously with const
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

0 N

Explanation:

This is a trick question, the mass of the wrench would be 0 due to it being in space and has no gravitational pull to weight it down. And since acceleration is defined as the rate and change of velocity with no respect of time and the wrench is moving at a constant velocity, that means the velocity is 0. and since F = m*a it would be F = 0 * 0 = 0 N

Human activities can have an impact on natural disasters.
kolezko [41]
I think you wanted to know whether the statement in question is true or false. Assuming this fact, i am answering the question and hope that it helps you. It is a true fact that human activities can have an impact on natural disasters. The increase in global temperature due to emission of greenhouse gases can cause the sea level to rise and create hurricanes.

If a horse does 4000 J of work over 20 m, how much force does the horse use?
astraxan [27]
In physics, a force is said to do work<span> if, when acting, there is a displacement of the point of application in the direction of the force. It is calculated by the formula W = f x d. Therefore, we calculate the problem above as follows:

W = f x d
4000 = f x 20
f = 200 N <----- FIRST OPTION</span>
