Which single force acts on an object in free fall

Physics
2 answers:
Pavel [41]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Gravitational force

Explanation:

An object moving under free fall, the force acting on it is only gravity. The object move under the action of gravitational force. The force of gravity is always attractive. This force depends on the masses and the distance between masses.

Hence, force of gravity is the only force acting on the object when it is moving in free fall.

A janitor standing on the top floor of a building wishes to determine the depth of the elevator shaft. They drop a rock from res
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Part a)

H = 26.8 m

Part b)

error = 7.18 %

Explanation:

Part a)

As the stone is dropped from height H then time taken by it to hit the floor is given as

t_1 = \sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}

now the sound will come back to the observer in the time

t_2 = \frac{H}{v}

so we will have

t_1 + t_2 = 2.42

\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}} + \frac{H}{v} = 2.42

so we have

\sqrt{\frac{2H}{9.81}} + \frac{H}{336} = 2.42

solve above equation for H

H = 26.8 m

Part b)

If sound reflection part is ignored then in that case

H = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

H = \frac{1}{2}(9.81)(2.42^2)

H = 28.7 m

so here percentage error in height calculation is given as

percentage = \frac{28.7 - 26.8}{26.8} \times 100

percentage = 7.18

Three pendulums all have the same length and start from the same height. The first pendulum is very light and has a mass of 67 g
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

All three pendulum will attain same velocity

Explanation:

All three pendulum will attain same velocity irrespective of their mass difference in isolated system (means where air drag are negligible) and at same length

As you know when velocity is calculated we can not take mass into account.

You just tested the hypothesis a proposed model for the position of bright fringes produced by two slits. Explain what the model
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

two-slit interference model was proposed by Young     d sin θ = m λ

Explanation:

The two-slit interference model was proposed by Young, it establishes that if a coherent source of light passes through two slits, the shape of the given pattern is a consequence of the relative phase difference between the two rays; mathematically it can be expressed by

           d sin θ = m λ

          m= 0, 1, 2, 3, ...

for constructive interference, that is, the two rays arrive with a number between wavelengths.

D is the distance between the slits, tea the angle between the two rays, m an integer and m the wavelength used.

In a simulation a pattern of slits of equal intensity and equally spaced is observed.
