You are standing at the top of a cliff that has a stairstep configuration. There is a vertical drop of 6 m at your feet, then a

horizontal shelf of 5 m , then another drop of 4 m to the bottom of the canyon, which has a horizontal floor. You kick a 0.97 kg rock, giving it an initial horizontal velocity that barely clears the shelf below. 5 m ∆x 10 m v 6 m 4 m What initial horizontal velocity v will be required to barely clear the edge of the shelf below you? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Consider air friction to be negligible. Answer in units of m/s.\

Answer:

4.5 m/s

Explanation:

The rock must barely clear the shelf below, this means that the horizontal distance covered must be

d_x = 5 m

while the vertical distance covered must be

d_y = 6 m

The rock is thrown horizontally with velocity v_x, so we can rewrite the horizontal distance as

d_x = v_x t

where t is the time of flight. Re-arranging the equation,

t=\frac{d_x}{v_x} (1)

The vertical distance covered instead is

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

where we omit the term ut since the initial vertical velocity is zero. From this equation,

t=\sqrt{\frac{2d_y}{g}} (2)

Equating (1) and (2), we can solve the equation to find v_x:

\frac{d_x}{v_x}=\sqrt{\frac{2d_y}{g}}\\\frac{d_x^2}{v_x^2}=\frac{2d_y}{g}\\v_x = d_x \sqrt{\frac{g}{2d_y}}=5\sqrt{\frac{9.8}{2(6)}}=4.5 m/s

Is it possible to code the impact force using an accelerometer?
Naddika [18.5K]

Yes, it possible to code the impact force using an accelerometer.

Accelerometers can be used to measure vibration on cars, machines, buildings, process control systems and safety installations

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

An accelerometer is a device that measures the vibration, or acceleration of motion of a structure.

  • The force caused by vibration or a change in motion (acceleration) causes the mass to "squeeze" the piezoelectric material which produces an electrical charge that is proportional to the force exerted upon it.

  • They can also be used to measure seismic activity, inclination, machine vibration, dynamic distance and speed with or without the influence of gravity.

A boy on the beach holds a spherical balloon filled with air. at 10:00am, the temperature on the beach is 20°c and the balloon h
Anon25 [30]
For idea gases, volume is directly proportional to temperature. That is, an increase in temperature leads to increase in volume and vice versa.

Therefore,
V1/T1 = V2/T2 => T2 = (V2*T1)/V1

Assuming that the balloon is spherical in shape,

V= 4/3*pi*R^3.... In the formula for calculating T2, 4/3*pi cancels out.

R1 = 30/2 15 cm; R2 = 30.5/2 = 15.25 cm; T1 = 20+273.15 =293.15 K

Therefore,

T2 = (R2^3*T1)/R1^3 = (15.25^3*293.15)/15^3 = 308.05 K = 34.9 °C

ASAP ANSWER PLEASE WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
lisov135 [29]

Yes

Explanation:

It is a reasonable result obtained.

Error = true value - measured value

true value = 24.5

measured value = 24.2

Error =  24.5 - 24.2 = 0.3g

 The error reported in the reading is 0.3g

The reason why we had a disparity in the figures obtained from this measurement is primarily due to some erroneous scale.

The mixture at the end of the day is a solution.

We are expected to have the same mass but due to experimental or some form of random error introduced, we noticed a difference.

The value obtained is quite logical as we only had a deviation of 0.3g.

Two blocks of masses 3.0 kg and 5.0 kg are connected by a spring and rest on a frictionless surface. They are given velocities t
miskamm [114]

Answer:

-0.7 m/sec

Explanation:

Mass of first block = m1 =3.0 kg

Mass of second block = m2= 5.0 kg

Velocity of first block = V1= 1.2 m/s

Velocity of second block = V2 = ?

Momentum of Center of mass MVcom  is sum of both blocks momentum and is given by

MVcom= m1v1+m2v2

Where

M= mass of center of mass

Vcom= Velocity of center of mass=0 m/s (because center of mass is at rest , so Vcom = 0 m.sec)

Putting values, we get;

0= 3×1.2+5v2

==> v2=  3.6/5= - 0.7 m/s

-ve sign indicates that block 2 is moving in opposite direction of block 1

Which part of the ear receives the signal from the eardrum?​
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Ossicles

Explanation:

Sound causes eardrums to vibrate. These vibrations are then passed on to the ossicles, which is made up of 3 small bones-- the malleus, incus, and stapes. The stapes are connected to the inner ear, specifically to the cochlea which transforms sound waves into electrical signals that are sent to the brain.
