Sounds like the shingle/ball is thrown from the roof horizontally, so that the distance it travels <em>x</em> after time <em>t</em> horizontally is
<em>x</em> = (7.2 m/s) <em>t</em>
The object's height <em>y</em> at time <em>t</em> is
<em>y</em> = 9.4 m - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²
where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity, and its vertical velocity is
<em>v</em> = -<em>gt</em>
(a) The object hits the ground when <em>y</em> = 0:
0 = 9.4 m - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²
<em>t</em>² = 2 * (9.4 m) / (9.80 m/s²)
<em>t</em> ≈ 1.92 s
at which time the object's vertical velocity is
<em>v</em> = -<em>g</em> (1.92 s) = -18.8 m/s ≈ -19 m/s
(b) See part (a); it takes the object about 1.9 s to reach the ground.
(c) The object travels a horizontal distance of
<em>x</em> = (7.2 m/s) * (1.92 s) ≈ 13.8 m ≈ 14 m
Galaxies are sprawling systems of dust, gas, dark matter, and anywhere from a million to a trillion stars that are held together by gravity. Nearly all large galaxies are thought to also contain supermassive black holes at their centers.
Ignoring air resistance, the bullet's horizontal velocity is constant:
In 1.3 seconds, we can expect it to travel
Answer: 87500J
Explanation:
Given that,
Power exerted by crane = 3,500 W
Time taken = 25 seconds
work done by crane = ?
Since power is the rate of work done per unit time, then power is workdone by the crane divided by the time taken.
i.e power = work / time
3,500 W = work / 25 seconds
Work = 3500W x 25 seconds
Work = 87500J
Thus, 87500 joules of work was done by the crane.
