We have:
s=3,7km (3700m)
u=0
v=26m/s
a=
t=
We look up for a formula to solve for a:
v²=u²+2as u²=0 so
v²=2as
(26m/s)²=2a3700m
676/7400=a
a=0,09m/s²

ANSWER ASAP!!!If a wave machine produces 10 waves in 2 seconds, what is the frequency of the machine in Hertz?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

5Hz

Explanation:

Frequency = No. of waves per second

10 waves are produced in 2 seconds

in one second 10/2 waves are produced

(ie) 5 waves are produced in 1 second

Therefore the frequency of wave is 5 Hz

Why are objects that fall near earth’s surface rarely in free fall?
Sloan [31]

Answer:

Because of the presence of air resistance

Explanation:

When an object is in free fall, ideally there is only one force acting on it:

- The force of gravity, W = mg, that pushes the object downward (m= mass of the object, g = acceleration of gravity)

However, this is true only in absence of air (so, in a vacuum). When air is present, it exerts a frictional force on the object (called air resistance) with upward direction (opposite to the motion of free fall) and whose magnitude is proportional to the speed of the object.

Therefore, it turns out that as the object falls, its speed increases, and therefore the air resistance acting against it increases too; as a result, the at some point the air resistance becomes equal (in magnitude) to the force of gravity: when this happens, the net acceleration of the object becomes zero, and so the speed of the object does not increase anymore. This speed reached by the object is called terminal velocity.

eduard

Answer:

1190 N

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and velocity. The unit of force is Newton(N).

From the question,

F = ma................. Equation 1

Where F = average force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

But,

a = (v-u)/t................ Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F = m(v-u)/t.............. Equation 3

Given: m = 70 kg, v = 1.7 m/s, u = 0 m/s (from rest), t = 0.1 s.

Substitute into equation 3

F = 70(1.7-0)/0.1

F = 1190 N.
