An object is dropped from the top of a tall building. At 2 seconds, it is 64 feet from the top of the building. At 4 seconds, it

is 256 feet from the top of the building. What is the average rate the object was traveling in the interval between 2 and 4 seconds?

Answer:

96.21 ft/s

Explanation:

To solve this, you only need to use one expression which is:

Vf² = Vo² + 2gh

g = 9.8 m/s²

However, this exercise is talking in feet, so convert the gravity to feet first:

g = 9.8 * 3.28 = 32.15 ft/s²

Vo is zero, because it's a free fall and in free fall the innitial speed is always zero. With this, let's calculate the speed at 2 seconds, with a height of 64 ft, and then with the 256 ft:

V1 = √2*32.15*64

V1 = 64.15 ft/s

V2 = √2*32.15*256

V2 = 128.3 ft/s

So the average rate is:

V = 128.3 + 64.15 / 2

V = 96.22 ft/s

Recalculate 100 km/h to m/s
qwelly [4]

= 27.777

Explanation:

A kilometer has 1,000 meters, and an hour has 3,600 seconds, so 100 kilometers per hour is: 100 x 1,000 / 3,600 = 27.777... m/s.

My name is Ann [436]

When wind turns the blades of a wind turbine and then this energy is used to power homes, this is an example of an energy transfer from mechanical to electrical energy.

<h3>What is Wind power?</h3>
  • In order to produce electricity, wind turbines are mostly used in wind power or wind energy.
  • In comparison to burning fossil fuels, wind energy is a well-liked, environmentally friendly, renewable energy source.
  • Wind energy, like all other forms of energy production, has the potential to have negative effects on the environment, including the loss, fragmentation, or degradation of habitat for animals, fish, and plants.
  • Additionally, flying animals like birds and bats could be harmed by turbine blades that are in motion.
  • Wind energy is economical.
  • After the production tax credit, land-based utility-scale wind is one of the least expensive energy sources on the market at 1-2 cents per kilowatt-hour.
