An object falls freely for 25 seconds, what is the velocity after the 25 seconds ?

1 answer:

5 0

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s² downward.
This means that gravity adds 9.8 m/s downward to the speed
of a freely falling object every second.

So after 25 sec, it's falling (25 x 9.8m/s) = 245 m/s faster than
it was falling at the beginning of the 25 seconds.

If it dropped from rest (no speed), then its velocity
after 25 seconds is 245 m/s downward.

A Porsche challenges a Honda to a 400 m race. Because the Porsche's acceleration of 3.4 m/s2 is larger than the Honda's 3.0 m/s2

Answer:

Winner wins by 0.969 s

Explanation:

For the Porche:

Given:

Displacement of Porsche s = 400 m

Acceleration of Porsche a = 3.4 m/s^2

From Newton's second equation of motion,

$s = ut + (1/2) a t^2$ (u = 0 as the car was initially at rest)

Substituting the values into the equation, we have

$t^2 = (2 * 400) / 3.4$

= 235.29 / 3.4

t = 15.33 s

For the Honda:

Displacement of Honda = 310 m

Acceleration of Honda = 3 m/s^2

Applying Newton's second equation of motion

$s = ut + (1/2) a t^2$ (u = 0 for same reason)

Substituting the values into the equation, we obtain

$t^2 = (2 * 310) / 3$

= 620 / 3

t = 14.37 s

Hence

The winner (honda) wins by a time interval of = 15.33 - 14.37

=0.969 s

Two blocks, A and B, are connected by a rope. A second rope is connected to block B and a steady, horizontal tension force of T

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

40 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Speed of system is constant

Therefore, acceleration=a=0

Tension applied on block B=T=50 N

Friction force=f=10 N

We have to find the friction force acting on block A.

Let T' be the tension in string connecting block A and block B and friction force on block A be f'.

For Block B

$T-f-T'=m_Ba$

Where $m_B$ =Mass of block B

Substitute the values

$50-10-T'=m_B\times 0=0$

$T'==40 N$

For block A

$T'-f'=m_Aa$

Where $m_A=$ Mass of block A

Substitute the values

$40-f'=m_A\times 0=0$

$f'=40 N$

Hence, the friction force acting on block A=40 N
