What are newtons laws?

Physics
1 answer:
VLD [36.1K]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Newton's 1st law: An object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest, until acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Newton's 2nd law: Force equals mass times acceleration.

Newton's 3rd law: For every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction.

REY [17]

Answer:

a) They will hit the ground with a speed of 19.6 m/s.

b) They are at a height of 20 m.

c) It is not a safe jump.

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The equations of height and velocity in function of time of a free falling body are the following:

h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

h = height of the object at time t.

h0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering downward as negative direction).

v = velocity of the object at time t.

Using the equation of velocity, let's find the velocity at which they will hit the ground. The pebble is dropped (initial velocity = 0) and it takes 2 s to reach the ground:

v = v0 + g · t     (v0 = 0)

v = g · t

v = -9.8 m/s² · 2.0 s

v = -19.6 m/s

They will hit the ground with a speed of 19.6 m/s.

b)Now, we have to use the equation of height:

h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

If we place the origin of the frame of reference on the ground, we have to find the initial height (h0) knowing that at t = 2.0 s, h = 0 m

0 m = h0 - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (2.0 s)²

h0 = 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (2.0 s)²

h0 = 20 m

They are at a height of 20 m.

c)According to a NASA paper (Issues on Human Acceleration Tolerance After Long-Duration Space Flights, figure 10), if you fall with a vertical velocity greater than 17 m/s it is unlikely that you will survive. So, it is not a safe jump.

A 13-kg sled is moving at a speed of 3.0 m/s. At which of the following speeds will the sled have twice as much kinetic energy?
AysviL [449]
K.E. = 1/2 mv²
K.E. is directly proportional to v^2
So, when K.E. increase by 2, K.E. increase by root. 2
v' = 1.41v
original v value was 3 so, final would be:
v' = 1.41*3 = 4.23
After round-off to it's tenth value, it will be:
v' = 4.2

So, option B is your answer!

Hope this helps!

The ground state energy of an oscillating electron is 1.23 eV. How much energy must be added to the electron to move it to the t
Vikki [24]

Answer:

  • The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the third excited state is  -1.153 eV
  • The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the fourth excited state is  -1.181 eV

Explanation:

Given;

Energy of electron in ground state (n = 1 ) = 1.23 eV

E₁ = 1.23 eV

Eₙ = E₁ /n²

where;

E₁ is the energy of the electron in ground state

n is the energy level,

For third excited state, n = 4

E₄ = E₁ /4²

E₄ = (1.23 eV) / 16

E₄ = 0.077 eV

Change in energy level, = E₄ - E₁ = 0.077 eV - 1.23 eV = -1.153 eV

The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the third excited state is  -1.153 eV

For fourth excited state, n = 5

E₅ = E₁ /5²

E₄ = (1.23 eV) / 25

E₄ = 0.049 eV

Change in energy level, = E₅ - E₁ = 0.049 eV - 1.23 eV = -1.181 eV

The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the fourth excited state is  -1.181 eV

What elements compose the stars and planets in the universe
Savatey [412]

Well hydrogen would be the main element, as a process called nuclear fusion with both helium and hydrogen atoms occurs within stars. And planets are the products of dead stars that have burned through their supplies of hydrogen, helium, and carbon. Planets are a product of this.
