If you drop an object from rest, the distance it falls is given by (1/2)at2, where a is the acceleration of the object and t is

the amount of time fallen. Suppose you drop an object and measure the distance it falls. Suppose you drop it again, but it falls for three times the amount of time as before. How far did it fall on the second drop?
Select one:
a. It will fall twice the distance compared to the first time dropped.
b. It will fall three times the distance compared to the first time dropped.
c. It will fall nine times the distance compared to the first time dropped.
d. It depends on the planet you are on when you drop it.

If,

d \:  =  \:   \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

then, with 3x time t, (suppose, new distance is h)

h \:  =  \:   \frac{1}{2} a {(3t)}^{2}

=  \frac{1}{2} a9 {t}^{2}

= 9 \:  \frac{1}{2} a{t}^{2}

= 9d

Therefore, new distance h will be 9 times bigger than distance d.

answer: c

Fynjy0 [20]

The patient eating a candy bar instead of fasting for the test should be told

that the test results will be wrong and he may receive a wrong diagnosis.

The medical practitioners told him to fast when coming for a reason and he

forgetting and eating something means the objective for the test may have

been defeated.

This is why it's best to explain to him about the consequences of his actions

which is likely getting a wrong result and diagnosis.

Imagine Two Artificial Satellites Orbiting Earth At The Same Distance. One Satellite Has A Greater Mass Than The Other One? Whic
Bad White [126]

After reading this whole question, I feel like I've already
earned 5 points !

-- Two satellites at the same distance, different masses:

The forces of gravity between two objects are directly
proportional to the product of the objects' masses.  In
other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object on its surface are proportional to the mass of
the object.  In other words, people with more mass weigh more
on the Earth, and the Earth weighs more on them. 

If the satellites are both at the same distance from Earth,
then the Earth pulls on the one with more mass with greater
force, and also the one with more mass pulls on the Earth
with greater force.

-- Two satellites with the same mass, at different distances:

The forces of gravity between two objects are inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them. 
In other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object are inversely proportional to the square of
the distance between the object and the center of the Earth. 

If the satellites both have the same mass, then the Earth
pulls on the nearer one with greater force, and also the
nearer one pulls on the Earth with greater force.

-- Resistor in a circuit when the voltage changes:

The resistance depends on how the resistor was manufactured. 
Its resistance is marked on it, and doesn't change.  It remains
the same whether the voltage changes, the current changes,
the time of day changes, the cost of oil changes, etc.

If you increase the voltage in the circuit where that resistor is
installed, the current through the resistor increases.  If the current
remains constant, then you can be sure that somebody snuck over
to your circuit when you weren't looking, and they either installed
another resistor in series with the original one to make the total
resistance bigger, or else they snipped the original one out of the
circuit and quickly connected one with more resistance in its place.

A test car starts from rest on a horizontal circular track of 115-m radius and increases its speed at a uniform rate to reach 90
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

a= 3.49 m/s^2

Explanation:

magnitude of total acceleration = sqrt{radial acceleration^2+tangential acceleration^2}.

we know that tangential acceleration a_t= change in velocity /time taken

now 90 km/h = 25 m/s

a_t = 25/17 = 1.47 m/s^2.

radial acceleration a_r = v^2/r

v= a_t×t = 1.47×13 = 19.11 m/s

a_r = 19.11^2/115=  3.175

now,

a= \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}

a= \sqrt{1.47^2+3.175^2}

a= 3.49 m/s^2

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Directly proportional: as one amount increases another amount increases at the ... The "constant of proportionality" is the value that relates the two amounts ... Example: y is directly proportional to x, and when x=3 then y=15. ... Speed and travel time are Inversely Proportional because the faster we go the shorter the time.
