A stone is dropped from a bridge abd it hits the water 2.2 seconds later how high is the bridge above the water
Bess [88]

Answer:

h = 23.716 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The time taken by the stone to hit the water is, t = 2.2 s

Height of the bridge above the ground, h = ?

The distance that the body will fall through the time is given by the formula

                                S = 1/2 gt²  m

Where,        

                              g - acceleration due to gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation

                               S = 1/2 x 9.8 m/s² x (2.2 s)²

                                  = 23.716  m

Therefore, the height of the bridge from the surface of the water is h = 23.716  m

How does the sun's gravity and the earth inertia keep us orbiting in the solar system
scZoUnD [109]
<span>Inertia keeps us orbiting because any object with mass has the tendency to resist changes to their direction and speed of movement. Combine that with the interaction of the gravitational attraction of the sun, and that is what keeps Earth in orbit. The sun’s gravitational force is one that is proportional to Earth’s mass, and it acts in a way that is almost exactly perpendicular to Earth’s motion. This keeps Earth from spinning into the sun or far away from it.</span>

A 720 kg roller-coaster starts off from Location A. Assuming friction does not impede the car's motion, what will be the change
vaieri [72.5K]
We know, Potential Energy = m * g * h
Here, mass & gravity would be same, but their height will change so it will be:

ΔU = U₂ - U₁
ΔU = mgh₂ - mgh₁
ΔU = mg (h₂ - h₁)

Hope this helps!

How does the saturation of a solution affect crystal formation? In your own words please
ryzh [129]

The term saturated solution is used in chemistry to define a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the solvent. It is understood that saturation of the solution has been achieved when any additional substance that is added results in a solid precipitate or is let off as a gas.
