A small package is attached to a helium-filled balloon rising at 2 m/s. The package drops from the balloon when it is 14 meters

above the ground. What is the velocity of the package just before it hits the ground?

I would assume air resistance is negligible and so the acceleration of the package would be approximately 9.81 m/s².

Taking downwards as positive, use v²=u²+2as.
v²=(-2)²+2(9.81)(14)
v=16.7 m/s

If a 50 kg student is standing on the edge of a cliff. Find the student’s gravitational potential energy if the cliff is 40 m hi
Oduvanchick [21]

you can find it using the equation: potential energy=mass*gravitational acceleration*height.


energy=50kg*9.8N/kg*40m=19600Nm=19600J or 19.6kJ


Sometimes they use 10 instead of 9.8 for the g constant.

We are sending a 30 Mbit file from source host A to destination host B. All links in the path between source and destination hav
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

t=1.5\times 10^{-4}\ s

Explanation:

Given:

  • file size to be transmitted, D=30\ Mb
  • transmission rate of data, \dot D=10\ Mb.s^{-1}
  • propagation speed, v=2\times 10^8\ m.s^{-1}
  • distance of data transfer, s=10000\ km=10^4\ m

<u>Now the delay in data transfer from source to destination for each 10 Mb:</u>

t'=\frac{s}{v}

t'=\frac{10^4}{2\times 10^8}

t'=5\times 10^{-5}\ s

<u>Now this time is taken for each 10 Mb of data transfer and we have 30 Mb to transfer:</u>

So,

t=3\times t'

t=3\times 5\times 10^{-5}

t=1.5\times 10^{-4}\ s
