I'm going to assume that this gripping drama takes place on planet Earth, where the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s². The solutions would be completely different if the same scenario were to play out in other places.
A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s. Gravity decreases its upward speed (increases its downward speed) by 9.8 m/s every second.
So, the ball reaches its highest point after (40 m/s)/(9.8 m/s²) = <em>4.08 seconds</em>. At that point, it runs out of upward gas, and begins falling.
Just like so many other aspects of life, the downward fall is an exact "mirror image" of the upward trip. After another 4.08 seconds, the ball has returned to the height of the hand which flung it. In total, the ball is in the air for <em>8.16 seconds</em> up and down.
Let s = rate of rotation
<span>Let r = radius of earth = 6,400km </span>
<span>Then solving (s^2) r = g will give the desired rate, from which length of day is inferred. </span>
<span>People would not be thrown off. They would simply move eastward in a straight line while the curved surface of earth fell away from beneath them.</span>
Answer:
5760 J
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Mass of block = 48 kg
Height (h) = 12 m
Gravitational field strength (g) = 10 N/Kg
Gravitational potential energy (PE) =?
The gravitational potential energy stored by the block can simply be obtained as follow:
PE = mgh
PE = 48 × 10 × 12
PE = 5760 J
Therefore, the gravitational potential energy stored by the block is 5760 J
Answer:
1.71 km
Explanation:
Convert 30 minutes to seconds:
30 min × (60 s / min) = 1800 s
Find the displacement:
0.95 m/s × 1800 s = 1710 m
Convert to kilometers:
1710 m × (1 km / 1000 m) = 1.71 km
All of the following are non-renewable resources except
O natural gas
O oil
O minerals
O <em>water ✓ </em>
- <em>Water </em><em>is </em><em>a </em><em>renewable </em><em>source </em><em>because </em><em>evaporation </em><em>and </em><em>condensation </em><em>takes </em><em>place </em><em>everytime </em><em>on </em><em>our </em><em>planet</em>
