One way to measure g on another planet or moon by remote sensing is to measure how long it takes an object to fall a given dista

nce. A lander vehicle on a distant planet records the fact that it takes 3.17 s for a ball to fall freely 11.26 m, starting from rest.
a. What is the acceleration due to gravity on that planet?
b. How fast is the ball moving just as it lands in m/s?

Answer:

a)a=2.24m/s^{2}

b)v(t)=7.1m/s

Explanation:

We use the kinematics equations:

v(t)=v_{o}+g*t=g*t   starting from rest

y(t)=v_{o}t+1/2*a*t^{2}=1/2*a*t^{2

a=2*y/t^{2}=2*11.26/3.17^{2}=2.24m/s^{2}

We find now the speed

v(t)=a*t=2.24*3.17=7.1m/s

A 125 W motor accelerates a block along a level, frictionless surface at an average speed of 5.0
Lelu [443]

Answer:

25N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Power of the motor = 125W

Average speed  = 5m/s

Unknown:

Force supplied to the motor = ?

Solution:

 Work done is the force applied to move a body through a particular distance;

         Work done  = Force x distance

Also,

        Work done  = Power x time

 

So;

             Force x distance = Power  x time

  since force is the unknown;

            Force  = \frac{Power x time}{distance}

         Speed  = \frac{distance }{time}

             Force  = \frac{Power}{speed}

Now solve;

                Force  = \frac{125}{5}    = 25N

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6 m/s to 13 m/s in a period of 1 s. What is your acceleration? m/s2
ziro4ka [17]
Average acceleration is
Change in Velocity/change in time
So you could then do Vf-Vi/Tf-Ti
Which would look like 13m/s-6m/s / 1s-0s
Which then is 7m/s/1s which means the acceleration is 7m/s^2

You are approaching a helicopter on a helipad in an ambulance. The helicopter is powered down and the blades are not spinning. A
Maksim231197 [3]

After notifying the PIC of your arrival, it is best to approach the sides of the helicopter in this scenario.

<h3>What is an Ambulance?</h3>

This is a vehicle which contains medical equipments and are involved in the transportation of patients to healthcare facilities.

It is best to approach the sides of the helicopter and not tail rotor end to ensure visibility and safety.

A shopper walks westward 2.8 meters in the first 5 minutes and then eastward 9.2 meters in the next 10 minutes. What is the shop
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

12m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance walked westward  = 2.8m

Time of travel  = 5min

Distance walked eastward = 9.2m

Time of travel  = 10min

Unknown:

The total shopper's travel distance  = ?

Solution:

Total distance traveled is the sum of the length of path covered by a body. It is a scalar quantity.

 Total distance = distance walked westward + distance walked eastward

  Total distance  = 2.8m + 9.2m  = 12m
