A frog falls from its rainforest tree. If we ignore wind resistance, (a) how much time does it take the frog to fall a distance

of 12.0 m? (b) how fast is the frog falling at this point?

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Using the equation of motion

S = ut + 1/2gt²

S is the distance of fall

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

Given S = 12.0m, g = 9.81m/s^2, un= 0m/s

12 = 0+1/2(9.81)t²

12 = 4.905t²²²

t² = 12/4.905

t² = 2.446

t = √2.446

t = 1.56secs

b) To determine how fast is the frog falling at this point, we need to calculate the speed of the frog. Using the equaton v = u+gt

v = 0+9.81(1.56)

v = 15.34m/s

Hence the frog is falling at the rate of 15.34m/s

A ball that has a mass of 0.25 kg spins in a circle at the end of a 1.6 m rope. the ball moves at a tangential speed of 12.2 m/s
NARA [144]

The centripetal force acting on the ball will be 23.26 N.The direction of the centripetal force is always in the path of the center of the course.

<h3>What is centripetal force?</h3>

The force needed to move a body in a curved way is understood as centripetal force. This is a force that can be sensed from both the fixed frame and the spinning body's frame of concern.

The given data in the problem is;

m is the mass of A ball = 0.25 kg

r is the radius of circle= 1.6 m rope

v is the tangential speed = 12.2 m/s

\rm F_C is the centripetal force acting on the ball

The centripetal force is found as;

\rm F_C = \frac{mv^2}{r}  \\\\ F_C = \frac{0.25 \times (12.2)^2}{1.6}  \\\\ F_C=23.26\ N

Hence the centripetal force acting on the ball will be 23.26 N.

A race car starting from rest accelerates uniformly at a rare of 4.90 meters per second^2. What is the cars speed after it has t
Vesnalui [34]

From the law of Galileo Galilei  :v²=v₀²+2ad we take the speed

v²=0+2*4.90*200=1960=>v=√1960=44.27 m/s

Determine the magnitude of the effective value of g⃗ at a latitude of 60 ∘ on the earth. assume the earth is a rotating sphere.
dezoksy [38]
In addition to acceleration of gravity we experience centrifugal acceleration away from the axis of rotation of the earth. this additional acceleration has value ac = r w^2 where w = angular velocity and r is distance from your spot on earth to the earth's axis of rotation so r = R cos(l) where l = 60 deg is the lattitude and R the earth's radius and w = 1 / (24hr x 3600sec/hr) 
<span>now you look up R and calculate ac then you combine the centrifugal acc. vector ac with the gravitational acceleration vector ag = G Me/R^2 to get effective ag' = ag -</span>

Which of the following is a quantitative observation?
liubo4ka [24]

The statement that is a quantitative observation is that bird has four different colors on it (option B).

<h3>What is a quantitative research?</h3>

A quantitative research is a systematic scientific investigation of quantitative properties and phenomena and their relationships, using statistical methods.

A quantitative observation has to do with numbers or numeric analysis.

This suggests that the statement that is a quantitative observation is that bird has four different colors on it.
