You're conducting a physics experiment on another planet. You drop a rock from a height of 2.1 m and it hits the ground 0.6 seco

nds later. What is the acceleration due to gravity on this planet?
A. 7.0 m/s2
B. 9.8 m/s2
C. 11.7 m/s2
D. 5.2 m/s2

(What formula should I use to solve this on my own?)

The formula to use is the one that connects the acceleration,
the distance fallen, and the time spent falling:

         Distance = 1/2 a T² .

You said  2.1 meters in 0.6 second .

                                                         2.1 m              = 1/2 a  (0.6 sec)²

Multiply each side by  2 :                  4.2 m              =       a (0.6 sec)²

Divide each side by (0.6 sec)² =     (4.2/0.36) m/s² =        a

                                                         a = (11 and 2/3) m/s²

                                        (about 19% more than Earth's gravity)

Explain in detail what specific factors affect the momentum of a bicycle going down hill.
Crazy boy [7]

Mass and velocity are the two terms which affect momentum of a bicycle going hill down.

Explanation:

As we know that Momentum describes the motion of an object. It is the combination of the objects mass and velocity.

So, obviously with no doubt mass and velocity are the two terms which affect momentum.

Momentum(p) = Mass(m) * Velocity(v)

The momentum also depends upon the mass and speed of the object.

More the mass of the object more is the momentum.

Depending upon the gravity and bicycle's motion speed momentum varies.

Bicycle moves faster the down hill if it moves with some speed as it has lesser mass the momentum also will be less.

I’d really appreciate it if someone could help
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

0.25

Explanation:

Friction force is the normal force times the coefficient of friction.

F = Nμ

50 N = (200 N) μ

μ = 0.25

How long would it take a drag racer to increase her speed from 10m/s to 20 m/s if her car accelerates at a uniform rate of 15 m/
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

t = 0.67 [s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following kinematics equation.

v_{f} =v_{i} +(a*t)\\where:

Vf = final velocity = 20[m/s]

Vi = initial velocity = 10 [m/s]

a = aceleration = 15 [m/s^2]

Now replacing in the equation we have:

20 = 10 + (15*t)

t = (20-10)/15

t = 0.67 [s]
