The distance you free-fall from rest is D = (1/2) (g) (T²) <== memorize this
Height of the platform = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (2.4 sec)²
Height = (4.9 m/s²) (5.76 s²)
Height = (4.9/5.76) meters
Height = 28.2 meters (a VERY high platform ... about 93 ft off the water !)
Without air-resistance, your horizontal speed doesn't change. It's constant. Traveling 3.1 m/s for 2.4 sec, you cover (3.1 m/s x 2/4 s) = 7.4 m horizontally.
Answer:
<em>The distance covered by comet is </em>
Explanation:
Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance with time. It is given by the equation speed= 
Thus distance= 
In this problem it is given that speed of comet= 
time travelled by the comet= 4 hours
Thus distance= 
= 
= 
Answer:
1. the force which can be felt or act only when two objects are in contact is known as contact force.
for example: frictional force, muscular force,
tension, air resistance .
2. the force which can be felt or act even when two objects are in contact or not is known as non-contact force.
for example: magnetic force, gravitational force, electrostatic force.
Answer:Water Only
Explanation:
Given
vessel is insulated therefore no heat can be added or removed i.e. heat exchange is zero
If hot water at
is mixed with cold water at
then at equilibrium vessel contains only water and final temperature of water will be between
and 
Heat released by hot water is equal to heat gain by cold water .
