<span>This statement simply implies that the 50 million tons of coal will produce the same energy output in one year as the 0.6 million barrels per day of oil. Assuming coal is more plentiful than oil, this is significant as 50 million tons is much smaller than 219 million barrels of oil.</span>

A visitor to a lighthouse wishes to determine the height of the tower. She ties a spool of thread to a small rock to make a simp

masha68 [24]

To solve this problem we must rely on the equations of the simple harmonic movement that define the period as a function of length and gravity as

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

Where

l = Length

g = Gravity

Re-arrange to find L,

$L = g (\frac{T}{2\pi})^2$

Our values are given as

$g = 9.81m/s$

$T = 10.1s$

Replacing,

$L = g (\frac{T}{2\pi})^2$

$L = (9.81) (\frac{10.1}{2\pi})^2$

$L = 25.348m$

Therefore the height would be 25.348m

A 1.5 kg orange falls from a tree and hits the ground in 0.75s. What is the speed of the orange just before it hits the ground?

Olenka [21]

The final speed of the orange is 7.35 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the orange is a free fall motion, since there is only the force of gravity acting on it. Therefore, it is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration $g=9.8 m/s^2$ towards the ground. So we can use the following suvat equation:
