I WILL MARK YOU AS BRAINLIEST!!! An object is launched straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 40 meters per second

, from a height 30 m above the ground. Assuming that gravity pulls it down, changing its position by about 4.9 /2, after how many seconds will the object hit the ground? Enter your answer as a number rounded to the nearest tenth, such as: 42.5

Answer:

8.9 seconds

Explanation:

The height of the object at time t is:

y = h + vt − 4.9t²

where h is the initial height, and v is the initial velocity.

Given h = 30 and v = 40:

y = 30 + 40t − 4.9t²

When y = 0:

0 = 30 + 40t − 4.9t²

4.9t² − 40t − 30 = 0

Solving with quadratic formula:

t = [ -(-40) ± √((-40)² − 4(4.9)(-30)) ] / 2(4.9)

t = [ 40 ± √(1600 + 588) ] / 9.8

t = 8.9

It takes 8.9 seconds for the object to land.

A ball of mass 2.0 kg falls vertically and hits the ground with speed 7.0 ms-1 as shown below.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

8.0 Ns

Explanation:

Change in momentum is given as:

Final momentum - Initial momentum

= m*v - m*u

Where m = mass of ball

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

Change in momentum = (2.0 * 3.0) - (2.0 * 7.0)

= 6.0 - 14.0 = -8.0 Ns

The magnitude will be |-8.0| = 8.0 Ns

A golfer tees off and hits a golf ball at a speed of 31 m/s and at an angle of 35 degrees. What is the horizontal velocity compo
nasty-shy [4]
The horizontal component of the velocity of the ball is calculated by multiplying the speed by the cosine of the given angle. 
                        x-component of speed = (31 m/s)(cos 35°) 
                                                               = 25.39 m/s
Thus, the horizontal velocity component of the ball is 25.39 m/s.

6. Two light bulbs are designed for use at 120 V and are rated at 75 W and 150 W. Which light bulb has the greater filament resi
Nonamiya [84]

\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

  • P is power
  • R is resistance

\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}

Hence

\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R\propto V

\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R\propto \dfrac{1}{P}

  • Therefore if power is low then resistance will be high.

The first bulb has less power hence it has greater filament resistance.
