79 m/s. A stone dropped from the top of the Empire State Building will have a velocity of 79 m/s just before it strikes the ground.

This problem is about free fall, to find the velocity of the stone before it strikes the ground we have to use the equation v_{f}^{2}=v_{0}^{2}+2gh, the initial velocity  of the stone is 0 m/s. Then:

v_{f}^{2}=2gh

v_{f}=\sqrt{ 2gh}

Solving the equation above with g = 9.8 m/s², and h = 318.0 m:

v_{f}=\sqrt{ 2(9.8m/s^{2})(318.0m)}= 78.95 m/s

v_{f}≅ 79 m/s

How long will it take to travel 200 m traveling at 10 m/s? Follow example below.
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

variables  - d = 200m \: v = 10 m {s}^{ - 1}  \\ equation \:   - v =  \frac{d}{t}  \\ 10 = \frac{200}{t}  \\ cross \: multiply \\ 10t = 200 \\  \frac{10t}{10}  =   \frac{200}{10}  \\ t = 20s

It will take 10 seconds to travel 200m at a speed of 10m/s

Explanation:

HOPE THAT THIS IS HELPFUL.

HAVE A GREAT DAY.

Assume that a satellite orbits mars 150km above its surface. Given that the mass of mars is 6.485 X 10^23kg, and the radius of m
Kisachek [45]
<span>3598 seconds The orbital period of a satellite is u=GM p = sqrt((4*pi/u)*a^3) Where p = period u = standard gravitational parameter which is GM (gravitational constant multiplied by planet mass). This is a much better figure to use than GM because we know u to a higher level of precision than we know either G or M. After all, we can calculate it from observations of satellites. To illustrate the difference, we know GM for Mars to within 7 significant figures. However, we only know G to within 4 digits. a = semi-major axis of orbit. Since we haven't been given u, but instead have been given the much more inferior value of M, let's calculate u from the gravitational constant and M. So u = 6.674x10^-11 m^3/(kg s^2) * 6.485x10^23 kg = 4.3281x10^13 m^3/s^2 The semi-major axis of the orbit is the altitude of the satellite plus the radius of the planet. So 150000 m + 3.396x10^6 m = 3.546x10^6 m Substitute the known values into the equation for the period. So p = sqrt((4 * pi / u) * a^3) p = sqrt((4 * 3.14159 / 4.3281x10^13 m^3/s^2) * (3.546x10^6 m)^3) p = sqrt((12.56636 / 4.3281x10^13 m^3/s^2) * 4.458782x10^19 m^3) p = sqrt(2.9034357x10^-13 s^2/m^3 * 4.458782x10^19 m^3) p = sqrt(1.2945785x10^7 s^2) p = 3598.025212 s Rounding to 4 significant figures, gives us 3598 seconds.</span>

5. How much time does it take for a bird flying at a speed of 45 kilometers per hour to travel a
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

40h

Explanation:

Use the velocity formula to solve

v = \frac{d}{t}

In this question, you are given velocity v = 45km/h, and you are given a distance, d = 1800km.  Time in this question is what you'll need to find.

Start by rearranging the velocity formula, to isolate for t.

v = \frac{d}{t}

Start by multiplying both sides by t

v(t) = \frac{d}{t}(t)\\\\vt = d

Then divide both sides by v.

vt\frac{1}{v} = d/v\\ \\t = \frac{d}{v}

Now that you've isolated for time, sub in your values and calculate.

t = \frac{d}{v} = \frac{1800km}{45km/h} = 40 h
