A hammer is dropped from the roof of a building 1000 meters tall. How long will it

Physics
1 answer:
ipn [44]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Let's use the kinematic equation

s = ut + ½at²

Where

s = distance fallen

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

a = acceleration

Here the hammer is dropped so a = g = gravitational acceleration

u = 0 because the hammer is dropped.

So by substituting you get,

1000 = 0 + ½×10×t²

t² = 200

t = 14.14 s

current is passed through two parallel conductors in the same direction. If the conductors are placed near each other,they will​
svlad2 [7]

If current is passed through two parallel conductors in the same direction and the conductors are placed near each other, they will​ attract each other.

<h3>What is electric current?</h3>

Electric current can be defined as the flow of electrons.

Since electrons are easily removed from atom and are very mobile, the flow of electrons constitute an electric current.

Materials which allow electric current to flow through them are known as conductors. Examples of conductors are metals, and electrolytes.

On the other hand, materials which do not allow electric current to pass through them are known as insulators. Examples of insulators are wood and rubber.

The flow of current is known as electricity.

Parallel conductors with current flowing through them in the same direction are attracted to each other as a result of a magnetic field produced by the flow of current.

In conclusion, conductors allow electric current to pass through and the flow of current through a conductor produces a magnetic field.

A race car moving along a circular track has a centripetal acceleration of 15.4 m/s? If the car has
Helen [10]

Answer:

r = 58.44 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation that relates the centripetal acceleration with the tangential velocity and the radius of rotation.

a = v²/r

where:

a = centripetal acceleration = 15.4 [m/s²]

v = tangential speed = 30 [m/s]

r = radius or distance [m]

r = v²/a

r = 30²/15.4

r = 58.44 [m]

When a person floating in swimming pool, they experience an upthrust. what causes this effect?​
velikii [3]
When your head sticks out of the water the upthrust reduces as your head is no longer displacing water, and there is 0 resultant force so you float at that level. hope this helps, can i get brainliest please

what does it mean if the coefficient of friction is greater? for example,a coefficient of friction of 0.1 compared to 0.7
Sergeu [11.5K]
Well, 0.1 is actually less than 0.7, but I understand what you're asking.

The coefficient of friction describes the relationship between two surfaces
that are sliding by each other.  The higher the coefficient of friction is, the
'rougher' the meeting is, and the harder it is for one to slide over the other. 
A skate blade against ice has a very low coefficient of friction.  Sandpaper
against blue jeans has a high coefficient of friction.

A higher coefficient of friction means that when one thing is sliding over
the other one, friction robs more energy from the motion.  It's harder to
push one thing over the other one, and when you let go, the moving one
slows down and stops sooner.

Air resistance is actually an example of friction.  It prevents falling things
from falling as fast as they would if there were no air. The coefficient of
friction when something moves through air is pretty low.  If the same
object were trying to move through molasses or honey, the coefficient
of friction would be greater.

Friction robs energy, and turns it into heat.  So, especially in machinery with
moving parts, we want to make the coefficient of friction between the moving parts
as small as possible.  That's what the OIL in a car's engine is for.
