A pair of glasses is dropped from the top of a 42.0 meter high stadium. A pen is dropped from the same position 2.00 seconds lat

er. How high above the ground is the pen when the glasses hit the ground? (Disregard air resistance. a = - g = - 9.81 m/s ^2)

Given that,

For glasses:

distance, s = 42 m

a= -g = -9.81 m/s²

we can calculate time taken by glasses to hit the ground as follow:

s= Vi* t + 1/2 at²

Since at top initial velocity, Vi= 0

42 = 0 - 0.5* 9.81 t²

t = 2.926 s

Pen is drop 2 second after the glasses is dropped. So time difference will be:

Δt = 2.926 - 2 = 0.926 s

Distance covered by Pen in 0.926 s can be calculated as:

s = 0 - 0.5* 9.81 * 0.926²

s= 4.2 m

Distance of pen from ground will be, 42-4.2 = 37.8 m

When the glasses hit the ground, the pen will be 37.8 m above the ground.

vfiekz [6]

The correct answer is :

Unit vectors I and j along the x-axis and y-axis, respectively, define the Cartesian coordinate system. The radial unit vector r, which indicates the direction from the origin, and the unit vector t, which is orthogonal (perpendicular) to the radial direction, together create the polar coordinate system.

We can obtain the horizontal component by applying the trigonometric identity of Cos(Ф), and if we obtain the component on the x axle, such as 22000 (m)×Cos(51°) = x, we may determine that x = 13845.05 metres. We need to obtain the vector components because we already know the distance and the angle.

What is kinematics ?<br>explain ~​
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

the branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces which cause the motion.

and/or

Kinematics is the study of motion of a system of bodies without directly considering the forces or potential fields affecting the motion. In other words, kinematics examines how the momentum and energy are shared among interacting bodies.

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 4 m/s to 13 m/s in a period of 3 s. What is your acceleration?
iogann1982 [59]

The acceleration formula goes like this: a= (vf-vi)/t so it would be (13-4)/3 Thus the answer is 3m/s^2
