Neglect air resistance in this question. If you drop a ball from a height of 4.9 m, it will hit the ground 1s later. If you fire

a bullet exactly horizontally from a height of 4.9 m, it will also hit the ground 1s later. Explain.

Answer:

Explanation:

The time at which an object from from rest depends on air resistance, the height, gravity.

Since the question says we should neglect air resistance and both the ball and the bullet are from the same height they will get to the ground and the same time since they are both fired on earth which has the same gravity..

H=ut+1/2gt^2.

For an object dropping from a height the initial velocity is zero, therefore u=0m/s.

The formula becomes

t=√(2H/g)

So the time and object get to the ground depends on the height from the ground and gravity...

So since no air resistance they will get to the ground together.

klio [65]
Light waves are reflected from front and back surfaces of the thin films and constructive interference between the two reflected waves occurs in different places for different wavelengths. Light shining on the upper surface of the thin film with thickness t is partly reflected at the upper surface (path abc). Light transmitted from the upper surface is partly reflected at the lower surface (path abdef). The two reflected waves come together at point P on the retina of the eye. Depending on the phase relationship, they may interfere constructively or destructively. Different colors have different wavelengths, so the interference may be constructive for some colors and destructive for others.

The speed of light is 3.0x10^5 km/sec and it takes light 1.3 seconds for light to travel from the moon to earth froim this infor
Vika [28.1K]
The motion of the light is a uniform motion with constant speed v=3 \cdot 10^5 km/s, therefore we can use the basic relationship between speed, space and time:
v= \frac{S}{t} (1)
where S is the distance covered and t is the time taken. The light takes t=1.3 s to travel from the moon to Earth, therefore by rearranging eq.(1) we can find the distance between the Moon and the Earth:
S=vt=(3 \cdot 10^5 km/s)(1.3 s)=390000 km=3.9 \cdot 10^5 km

"Calculate the speed of this sound wave by recording how much time it takes to travel 5 meters. Use the (old school) velocity eq
lianna [129]
1) sound velocity reported by you : 292.39 m /s

2) time to travel 1620m at that velocity: t = d / v = 1620 m / 292.39 m/s = 5.54 s, since the moment the sound wave started.

3) You might wanted to tell the time since you watched the lightning.

Then you can calculate the time since the lighting was generated,1620 m away from you, until you saw it, using the speed of light:

 speed of light = 3*10^8 m/s => t = 1620 m / (3*10^8m/s) =0.0000054 s

Then, this time is completely neglectible, and yet the answer is 5.54 s, as calculated in the step 2.

Represent 7468 N with SI units having an appropriate prefix. Express your answer to four significant figures and include the app
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

7.468 kN

Explanation:

Here the force of 7468 Newton is given.

Some of the prefixes of the SI units are

kilo = 10³

Mega = 10⁶

Giga = 10⁹

The number is 7468.0

Here, the only solution where the number of significant figures is kilo

1 kilonewton = 1000 Newton

1\ Newton=\frac{1}{1000}\ kilonewton

\\\Rightarrow 7468\ Newton=\frac{7468}{1000}\ kilonewton\\ =7.468\ kilonewton

So 7468 N = 7.468 kN

Would you have been a Federalist or an Anti-Federalist? Why?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

I would have been an anti-federalist. They favored a weak central government because they related it to the British tyranny. Federalists believed in a strong central government, almost controlling. I would not have respected this type of government.
