Gravity adds 9.8 m/s to the speed of a falling object every second.
An object dropped from 'rest' (v = 0) reaches the speed of 78.4 m/s after falling for (78.4 / 9.8) = <em>8.0 seconds</em> .
<u>Note:</u>
In order to test this, you'd have to drop the object from a really high cell- tower, building, or helicopter. After falling for 8 seconds and reaching a speed of 78.4 m/s, it has fallen 313.6 meters (1,029 feet) straight down.
The flat roof of the Aon Center . . . the 3rd highest building in Chicago, where I used to work when it was the Amoco Corporation Building . . . is 1,076 feet above the street.
Water because the light is able to enter the water and allow heat to enter faster.
From the formula,
v=2πr/T
V(velocity is inversely related to T),so when v increases then time period will decrease.
Option a is correct.
Answer:
The equations of kinematics is applied for the motion with constant acceleration (including zero), but the condition is that the acceleration should be in the direction of the motion (positive or negative).
In circular motion, the acceleration is radial (centripetal), which means that the acceleration is always perpendicular to the motion of the object, therefore the equations of kinematics cannot be applied.
