A brick falls from a wall to the ground 3.42 m below. How much time will it take to
ddd [48]

Answer:

The time taken by the brick to hit the ground, t = 0.84 s

Explanation:

Given that,

A brick falls from a height, h = 3.42 m

The initial velocity of the brick is zero.

Since the brick is under free-falling. The time equation of a free-falling body when the displacement is given is

                                     t = \sqrt{2h/g}

where,

                                 h - height from surface in meters

                                 g - acceleration due to gravity

on substituting the values in the above equation,

                                 t =  \sqrt{2X3.14/9.8}

                                   = 0.84 s

Hence, time taken by the brick to hit the ground is t = 0.84 s

A tennis player standing 12.6m from the net hits the ball at 3.00 degrees above the horizontal. To clear the net, the ball must
mezya [45]
We actually don't need to know how far he/she is standing from the net, as we know that the ball reaches its maximum height (vertex) at the net. At the vertex, it's vertical velocity is 0, since it has stopped moving up and is about to come back down, and its displacement is 0.33m. So we use v² = u² + 2as (neat trick I discovered just then for typing the squared sign: hold down alt and type 0178 on ur numpad wtih numlock on!!!) ANYWAY....... We apply v² = u² + 2as in the y direction only. Ignore x direction. 
IN Y DIRECTION: v² = u² + 2as 0 = u² - 2gh u = √(2gh) (Sub in values at the very end) 
So that will be the velocity in the y direction only. But we're given the angle at which the ball is hit (3° to the horizontal). So to find the velocity (sum of the velocity in x and y direction on impact) we can use: sin 3° = opposite/hypotenuse = (velocity in y direction only) / (velocity) So rearranging, velocity = (velocity in y direction only) / sin 3° = √(2gh)/sin 3° = (√(2 x 9.8 x 0.33)) / sin 3° = 49 m/s at 3° to the horizontal (2 sig figs)

How does Newton's third law of motion describe forces?
svetlana [45]
I would say your answer is B, since Newton's 3rd law is, "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."
It's talking about pairs of actions. Sorry if I'm wrong.
