A ball is thrown horizontally at 20 m/s from the top of a cliff 50 meters high. how far from the base of the cliff does the ball
Oksanka [162]
You need to divide the motion into its component: vertical and horizontal motion.

The time taken to fall vertically from the cliff is equal to the time taken to move horizontally.

Using the vertical component, which is an accelerated motion with an initial velocity equal to zero, we can solve for t:
h = 1/2 · g · t²

t = √(2·h / g)
  = √(2·50 / 9.8)
  = 3.2 s

Horizontally, it is a constant motion:
d = v · t
   = 20 · 3.2
   = 64 m

The ball will strike the ground at a distance of 64 meters from the cliff.

An astronaut landed on a far away planet that has a sea of water. To determine the gravitational acceleration on the planet's su
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Acceleration due to gravity will be g=17.3m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given gauge pressure P = 3.8 atm = 3.8×101325 = 385035 Pa

Depth h = 24.3 m

Density \rho =1000kg/m^3

We have find the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of planet

We know that pressure is given by

P=\rho gh

So 385035=1000\times g\times 24.3

g=17.3m/sec^2

Acceleration due to gravity will be g=17.3m/sec^2

Suppose a 48-N sled is resting on packed snow. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10. If a person weighing 660 N sits on t
Annette [7]

Assume the snow is uniform, and horizontal.

Given:

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.10 = muK

weight of sled = 48 N

weight of rider = 660 N

normal force on of sled with rider = 48+660 N = 708 N = N

Force required to maintain a uniform speed

= coefficient of kinetic friction * normal force

= muK * N

= 0.10 * 708 N

=70.8 N


Note: it takes more than 70.8 N to start the sled in motion, because static friction is in general greater than kinetic friction.
