Answer:

A: 1.962

B: 3.924

Explanation:

g = G *M /R^2

g = 9.807*M/R^2 the gravitational constant of ground level on earth is about 9.807

g = 9.807*5lbs/R^2 the average brick is about 5 pounds.

g = 9.807*5*10^2. I'm assuming the height is around ten feet to help you out.

with these numbers plugged in you get an acceleration of 0.4905 a final velocity after 4 seconds 1.962. It's height fallen after 4 seconds is 3.924.

( M = whatever the brick weighs it's not specified in the question)

(R = the distance from the ground or how high the scaffold is)

(hopefully you can just plug your numbers in there hope this helps)

What is the magnitude of the force needed to keep a 60 newton rubber block moving across level,dry asphalt in a straight line at

pantera1 [17]

let Coefficients of Friction of Rubber on asphalt (dry) =0.7

F= Coefficients of Friction * normal force = 0.7 * 60 =42 N

so the net force of the rubber is zero, meaning it will travel at a constant speed.

When the rubber is travel at 2m/s, 42N is required to keep moving at constant speed

The distance between two successive peaks on adjacent waves is its

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelength is the distance between two corresponding consecutive phases of a waveform. It is usually represented by λ in the mathematical expressions.

A continuous propagating wave repeats its wavelength over the distance.

A wave has crest and trough with respect to time and space.

Wave is defined as a disturbance of any parameter repeated in a cyclic manner over the given time.

Amy is standing still on the ground; Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward; and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westw

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

20 m/s westward

Explanation:

Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:

$v_B = +5 m/s$ is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)

$v_C = -15 m/s$ is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy

Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

$v_B = +5 m/s$

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

$v_C' = v_C - v_B = -15 m/s - (+5 m/s) = -20 m/s$

and the direction will be westward (negative sign).

A elephant kicks a 5.0\,\text {kg}5.0kg5, point, 0, start text, k, g, end text stone with 150\,\text J150J150, start text, J, en

S_A_V [24]

The speed of the stone is 7.7 m/s

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy possessed by the body due to its motion. Mathematically,

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the body

v is its speed

For the stone in this problem, we have:

K = 150 J is its kinetic energy

m = 5.0 kg is its mass

Re-arranging the equation for v, we find the speed of the stone:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(150)}{5.0}}=7.7 m/s$
