Answer:
Height of cliff = S = 20 m (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Initial velocity = 8 m/s
Distance s = 16 m
Starting acceleration (a) = 0
Computation:
s = ut + 1/2a(t)²
16 = 8t
t = 2 sec
Height of cliff = S
Gravitational acceleration = 10 m/s
S = 1/2a(t)²
S = 1/2(10)(2)²
Height of cliff = S = 20 m (Approx)
The answer is option A.
Centripetal force is always directed towards the centre and does not change the speed of the body,but there is a change in the direction.
Answer:
1 astronomical unit is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun; approximately 150 million km. At its closest point, Saturn is 9 AU, and then at its most distant point, it's 10.1 AU. Saturn's average distance from the Sun is 9.6 AU. We have written many articles about Saturn for Universe Today.
Explanation:
Italian physicist Alessandro Volta discovered that particular chemical reactions could produce electricity, and in 1800 he constructed the voltaic pile (an early electric battery) that produced a steady electric current, and so he was the first person to create a steady flow of electrical charge.
Answer:
70.5 mph
Explanation:
A passenger jet travels from Los Angeles to Bombay, India, in 22h.
The return flight takes 17 h.
The difference in flight times is caused by winds over the Pacific Ocean that
blow primarily from west to east.
If the jet's average speed in still air is 550 mi/h what is the average speed
of the wind during the round trip flight? Round to the nearest mile per hour.
Is your answer reasonable?
:
Let w = speed of the wind
:
Write a distance equation (dist is the same both ways
17(550+w) = 22(550-w)
9350 + 17w = 12100 - 22w
17w + 22w = 12100 - 9350
39w = 2750
W = 2750/39
w = 70.5 mph seems very reasonable
:
Confirming if the solution by finding the distances using these value
17(550+70.5) = 10549 mi
22(550-70.5) = 10549 mi; confirms our solution of w = 70.5 mph
