A ball dropped from a bridge takes three seconds to reach the water below how far is the bridge above the water?

Physics

<u>Given that:</u>

Ball dropped from a bridge at the rate of 3 seconds

Determine the height of fall (S) = ?

      As we know that, S = ut + 1/2 ×a.t²

                          u =initial velocity = 0

                          a= g =9.81 m/s  (since free fall)

                            S = 0+ 1/2 × 9.81 × 3²

                          <em> S = 44.145 m</em>

<em>44.145 m far is the bridge from water</em>

Why can gases and liquids both transmit heat by convection?
Firlakuza [10]
Basically, the temperature is a result of the average kinetic energy of all the atoms comprising the solid/liquid/gas. In solid, these atoms can just vibrate in place, leaving them to only be able to conduct and radiate heat. However, as you probably know liquids and solids take the shape of their container because the bonds between atoms are loose enough to allow them to freely move around. Due to each individual atom having its own energy, and these atoms being free to move about the liquid/gas they collide with other atoms in the substance. These collisions result in a transfer of energy. Finally, lower energy atoms "sink" and higher energy atoms "rise" thus creating a "convection current".

A field measuring 12 meters by 16 meters is to have a brick paver walkway installed all around it, increasing the total area to
kolezko [41]

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

Length. L = 12 m

Width, W = 16 m

Area, A = 12 x 16 = 192 m^2

Let the width of pavement be d.

The new length, L' = 12 + 2d

the new width, W' = 16 + 2d  

New Area, A' = L' x W' = (12 + 2d)(16 + 2d) = 192 + 56 d + 4d^2

Difference in area = A' - A

285 =  192 + 56 d + 4d^2 - 192

93 =  56 d + 4d^2

4d^2 + 56 d - 93 = 0

d = \frac{-56\pm \sqrt{56^{2}+4\times 4\times 93}}{8}

d=\frac{-56\pm 87.72}{8}\

d = 1.5 m

Thus, the width of the pavement is 1.5 m.

What is the magnitude of the force that is exerted on a 20 kg mass to give it an acceleration of 10.0
ANEK [815]

Answer:Mass of the body = 20 kg.

Final Velocity = 5.8 m/s.

Initial velocity = 0

Time = 3 seconds.  

Using the Formula,  

Acceleration = (v - u)/ t

= (5.8 - 0)/ 3

= 1.6 m /s².

Now, Using the Formula,  

Force = mass × acceleration

= 20 × 1.6

=

what is the acceleration of a softball if it has a mass of 0.50kg and hits the catcher’s glove with a force of 25 N
Kitty [74]

Answer:

mass=0.50kg

force=25N

acceleration =?

Now,

force=m×a

25=0.50×a

25÷0.50=a

50=a

acceleration =50m/s^2 answer!!!!

hope this may help you!!!!
