At t=0, a stone is dropped from a cliff above a lake; 1.6 s later another stone is thrown downward from the same point with an i

nitial speed of 32 m/s. Both stones hit the water at the same instant. Find the height of the cliff.

Answer:

27.52 meters is the height of the cliff.

Explanation:

Second equation of motion:

h=u\times t+\frac{1}{2}g\times t^2

u = Initial velocity

t = Time taken to cover h  distance

g = Acceleration due to gravity

Let the height of the cliff be h

Stone-1:

Initial velocity of the stone = u = 0 m/s

Time to cover h height of cliff, t = ?, g = 9.8 m/s^2

h=0 m/s\times t+\frac{1}{2}g\times t^2..[1] (Second equation of motion)

Stone-2:

Initial velocity of the stone = u' = 32 m/s,

Time to cover h height of cliff = t' = (t-1.6),

g = 9.8 m/s^2

h=32 m/s\times (t-1.6)+\frac{1}{2}g(t-1.6)^2..[2]

Both stones are covering same distance or height of the cliff: [1]= [2]

0 m/s\times t+\frac{1}{2}g\times t^2=32 m/s\times (t-1.6)+\frac{1}{2}g(t-1.6)^2

On solving for t:

t = 2.37 seconds

h=0 m/s\times 2.37 s+\frac{1}{2}g\times t^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8 m/s^2\times (2.37 s)^2

h = 27.52 m

27.52 meters is the height of the cliff.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is "6666.67 N".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 0.100

Relative speed,

v = 4.00 x 10³

time,

t = 6.00 x 10⁻⁸

As we know,

⇒  F=m(\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} )

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒      =0.100\times 10^{-6}(\frac{4\times 10^3}{6\times 10^{-8}} )

⇒      =6666.67 \ N
