A rock is thrown upward with a velocity of 18 meters per second from the top of a 38 meter high cliff, and it misses the cliff o
Roman55 [17]

The rock would be at a point 12 m from water at a time <u>4.8 s</u>.

Take the origin of the coordinate system at the top of the cliff. It is thrown upwards with a velocity u. When the rock is at a point 12 m from water, calculate the vertical displacement of the rock from the origin.

y= -38m- (-12 m)=-26 m

Use the equation of motion,

y=ut +\frac{1}{2} at^2

The rock falls under the acceleration due to gravity, directed down wards.

Substitute 18 m/s for u, -26 m for y and -9.8 m/s² for a=g.

y=ut +\frac{1}{2} at^2\\ (-26 m)=(18m/s)t+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8m/s^2)t^2

Solve the quadratic equation for t.

t=\frac{(18m/s)(+/-)\sqrt{(18m/s)^2-4(4.9m/s^2)(-26m)} }{2(4.9m/s^2)}

Taking only the positive value,

t=\frac{(18 m/s)+(28.87 m/s)}{9.8 m/s^2)} \\ t=4.78 s

After a time of <u>4.8 s</u> the rock would be at a distance of 12 m from water.

A horse pulls a wagon that weighs 10 times more than the horse. The horse pulls with a force of 500N to move the wagon forward.
____ [38]

Answer:

f. 500N

Explanation:

The force exerted by the wagon on the horse is 500N directed in the opposite path .

This is premised on the Newton's third law of motion which states that "action and reaction forces are equal and opposite in direction".

So, as the action force of 500N is used by the horse to drag the wagon, the wagon also exerts an oppositely directed force of 500N on the horse.

This way, the acceleration can continue.

a tin containing 5000cm&gt;3 of paint has a mass of 7kg.if the mass of the empty tin including the lid is 0.5kg calculate the de
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

1.3 g/cm³

Explanation:

The mass of the paint without the tin or lid is:

7 kg − 0.5 kg = 6.5 kg = 6500 g

Density is mass per volume:

d = 6500 g / 5000 cm³

d = 1.3 g/cm³
