If a block of wood dropped from a tall building has attained a velocity of 78.4 m/s how long has it been falling

ryzh [129]

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) = 8.0 seconds .

Note:

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.

A 3200-lb car is moving at 64 ft/s down a 30-degree grade when it runs out of fuel. Find its velocity after that if friction exe

Karolina [17]

Answer:

The velocity is 40 ft/sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force = 3200 lb

Angle = 30°

Speed = 64 ft/s

The resistive force with magnitude proportional to the square of the speed,

$F_{r}=kv^2$

Where, k = 1 lb s²/ft²

We need to calculate the velocity

Using balance equation

$F\sin\theta-F_{r}=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$3200\sin 30-kv^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}$

Put the value of k

$3200\times\dfrac{1}{2}-v^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}$

$1600-v^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}$

At terminal velocity $\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}=0$

So, $1600-v^2=0$

$v=\sqrt{1600}$

$v=40\ ft/sec$

Hence, The velocity is 40 ft/sec.

$h=v_0t- \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\h=15t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8) t^{2}\\ \\ 
v_f=v_0-gt\;\;\;\Rightarrow t= \frac{v_f-v_0}{-g} = \frac{0-15}{-9.8} \approx1.53 \\ \\ 
\Rightarrow h=15(1.53)-4.9(1.53)^2\;\;\;\Rightarrow h=11.48\,m$
