An object is held at rest and allowed to drop How far does the object fall in 3.3 seconds?
IgorC [24]
After x seconds, an object will fall \frac{1}{2}at^2 where a is acceleration due to gravity and t is time

so when t=3.3
the distance it will fall is (\frac{1}{2})(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(3.3m)^2=53.361m
it will fal 53.361 meters

a 1.2x10^3 kilogram car is accelerated uniformly from 10. meters per second to 20 meters per second in 5.0 seconds. what is the
irinina [24]
Force , F = ma

F =  m(v - u)/t               

Where m = mass in kg, v= final velocity in m/s, u = initial velocity in m/s
t = time, Force is in Newton.

m= 1.2*10³ kg,  u = 10 m/s,  v = 20 m/s, t = 5s

F =  1.2*10³(20 - 10)/5

F = 2.4*10³ N = 2400 N

The radius of earth is 6,370,000 m. Express this measurement in km in scientific notation with the correct number of significant
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

6.37 x 10³ Km

Explanation:

given,

Radius of earth = 6,370,000 m

we know,

1 km = 1000 m

1 m = 0.001 Km

6,370,000 m =  6,370,000 x 0.001

                       = 6,370 Km

The number 6,370 has 3 significant figure.

To transform this to an exponential number, it is necessary to move the decimal to the left so there is only one digit in front of the decimal point.

Representing the given number in scientific notation

      = 6.37 x 10³ Km

How much work is done if 10 N is applied to a 5kg object for 10 meters if there is an opposing force of 5 N
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

50 J

Explanation:

The net force acting on the box is given by the algebraic sum of the two forces, so:

F=10 N -5 N = 5 N

The net work done on the box is equal to (assuming the net force is parallel to the displacement of the object)

W=Fd

where

F = 5 N is the net force on the object

d = 10 m is the displacement of the object

Substituting,

W=(5 N)(10 m)=50 J
