Given Information:  

Acceleration of gravity = g = 9.8 m/s²

Time period = t = 3 seconds

Required Information:

velocity = v = ?

Answer:  

v = 29.4 m/s

Explanation:  

As we know the velocity of an object under free fall assuming that the object was initially at rest is given by

v = -gt

Where minus sign indicates that the object is moving downward

v = -9.8*3

v = -29.4 m/s

Therefore, the rock will be falling at the speed of 29.4 m/s after 3 seconds.

Sati [7]

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

Potential energy or chemical potential energy is used to Cook food which is then converted into thermal energy. The type of energy used also depends upon the type of cooking appliances used.

For e.g. stove convert potential energy to thermal energy.

A disk of radius 10 cm speeds up from rest. it turns 60 radians reaching an angular velocity of 15 rad/s. what was the angular a
stepan [7]

Answer:

a) α = 1.875 \frac{rad}{s^{2} }

b) t = 8 s

Explanation:

Given:

ω1 = 0 \frac{rad}{s}

ω2 = 15 \frac{rad}{s}

theta (angular displacement) = 60 rad

*side note: you can replace regular, linear variables in kinematic equations with angular variables (must entirely replace equations with angular variables)*

a) α = ?

(ω2)^2 = (ω1)^2 + 2α(theta)

15^{2} = 0^{2} + 2(α)(60)

225 = 120α

α = 1.875 \frac{rad}{s^{2} }

b)

α = (ω2-ω1)/t

t = (ω2-ω1)/α = (15-0)/1.875 = 8

t = 8 s

The 1.0-kg collar slides freely on the fixed circular rod. Calculate the velocity v of the collar as it hits the stop at B if it
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

6.21 m/s

Explanation:

Using work energy equation then

U_{1-2}=T_B- T_A\\58d-mgh=0.5m(v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})

where d is displacement from initial to final position, v is velocity and subscripts a and b are position A and B respectively, m is mass of collar, g is acceleration due to gravity

Substituting 1 Kg for m, 0.4m for h, v_a as 0, 9.81 for g then

58(\sqrt{0.4^{2}+0.3^{2}}-0.1)-(1\times 9.81\times 0.4)=0.5\times 1\times (v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})\\19.276=0.5\times 1v_b^{2}\\v_b=6.209025688 m/s\approx 6.21 m/s
