A flowerpot weighing 2 kilograms, what will be its speed at the end of 5 seconds?

Physics

Snezhnost [94]3 years ago

That depends on what its speed was at the beginning of 5 seconds,
and on what exactly happened to it.

If it got pushed off of the window sill and fell to the ground below,
then the answer would depend on how high the window sill is.

If the flower pot kept falling for the whole 5 seconds, then its speed
would be  <em>49 meters per second</em>  at the end of the 5 seconds.  That's
because here on Earth, gravity increases the speed of falling things
by 9.8 meters per second for every second they fall.

Naturally, this answer is only true if the window sill is more than
122.5 meters above the ground ... about 402 feet, or 40 floors.
If it's lower than that, then the flower pot hits the ground in less
than 5 seconds, and its speed at the end of 5 seconds is zero.

By the way ...

-- It makes no difference how much the flower pot weighs.
All objects fall with the same acceleration, and hit the ground
at the same time.

-- 5 kilograms is a mass, not a weight.

Sound is an example of a mechanical wave. Mechanical waves are the kinds of waves that cannot be propagated without a medium. As such, these waves cannot travel through a vacuum, just like how sound cannot travel through space, since space is a vacuum.

Which takes place as water cycles from the bottom of the pot toward the top?
Elenna [48]
The option that takes place as water cycles from the bottom of the pot toward the top is that A. thermal energy is transferred. 
As the pot gets warmer and warmer, the heat flows everywhere inside the pot, ultimately reaching the top, and heating the water at the top as well. There is no chemical energy here, and molecules don't gain thermal energy, it is just transferred to the top of the pot.

TEA [102]

Answer:

His third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A. ... In reaction, a thrusting force is produced in the opposite direction.
