What is a common misconception/mistake made when calculating the final velocity for a falling object

Physics
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Velocity (v) can be calculated via v = gt, where g represents the acceleration due to gravity and t represents time in free fall. Furthermore, the distance traveled by a falling object (d) is calculated via d = 0.5gt^2.

A 0.40-kg cart with charge 4.0 x 10-5 C starts at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface 0.50 m from a fixed object with char
maw [93]

Answer:

26.82m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass = m= 0.4kg

Initial Velocity = u = 0

Charge = 4.0E-5C

Distance= d = 0.5m

Object Charge = 2E-4C

First, we'll calculate the initial energy (E)

E = Potential Energy

PE = kQq / d

Where k = coulomb constant = 8.99E9Nm²/C²

Energy is then calculated by;

PE = 8.99E9 * 4E-5 * 2E-4 / 0.5

PE = 143.84J

Energy = Potential Energy = Kinetic Energy

K.E = ½mv² = 143.84J

½mv² = ½ * 0.40 * v² = 143.85

0.2v² = 143.85

v² = 143.85/0.2

v² = 719.25

v = √719.25

v = 26.81883666380777

v = 26.82m/s

Hence, the object is 26.82m/s fast when the cart moving is very far (infinity) from the fixed charge

Recall the topography of the Sierra Nevada Mountains east of California's central valley. Which of the following locations would
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

3. western slope

Explanation:

If we investigate the physical features (such as natural and artificial features) of the Sierra Nevada Mountains located at the California's central valley eastern part, the western slope has the highest value of the precipitation level yearly. This is due to the location of the slope and the relevant conditions such as temperature and humidity.

Jupiter's semimajor axis is 7.78×1011 m. The mass of the Sun is 1.99×1030 kg. (a) What is the period of Jupiter's orbit in secon
dedylja [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Semi major axis of the Jupiter, a=7.78\times 10^{11}\ m

Mass of the sun, M=1.99\times 10^{30}\ kg

(a) Let T is the period of Jupiter's orbit. It is given by :

T^2\propto a^3

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}}\times (7.78\times 10^{11})^3

T=3.74\times 10^8\ s

(b) We know that,

1\ year=3.154\times 10^7\ s

or

1\ s=3.171\times 10^{-8}\ year

3.74\times 10^8\ s={3.171\times 10^{-8}}\times {3.74\times 10^8}

T = 11.859 earth years

Hence, this is the required solution.
