The moment an object in freefall hits the ground, its final velocity will be: a. Zero

Physics
1 answer:
bulgar [2K]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Option b

Explanation:

An object is said to fall freely when there is no force acting on the object other than the gravitational force. Thus the acceleration of the object is solely due to gravity and no other acceleration acts on the body.

Also the initial velocity of the body in free fall is zero and hence less than the final velocity.

As the body falls down closer to earth, it experiences more gravitational pull and the velocity increases as it falls down and the moment it touches the ground the period of free fall ends at that instant.

Thus the final velocity of an object in free fall is not zero because the final velocity is the velocity before coming in contact with the ground.

What is the new volume of the gas if the pressure on 350 L of oxygen
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

420 L

Explanation:

Applying Boyle's Law,

PV = P'V'.................... Equation 1

Where P = Initial pressure, P' = Final pressure, V = Initial volume, V' = Final volume.

make V' the subject of the equation

V' = PV/P'.................... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 720 mmHg, V = 350 L, P' = 600 mmHg

Substitute these values into equation 2

V' = (720×350)/600

V' = 252000/600

V' = 420 L

A large flat block of mass 7 m rests on a level, smooth tabletop (µk ≈ 0). On top of it is a much smaller block of mass m, with
mariarad [96]

Answer:

3. µs g /7

Explanation:

The largest Force appear when the maximal friction Force is required.

Second Newton law for the small block:

F_friction=u_s*N=u_s*(mg)

F-F_friction=ma

F-u_s*(mg)=ma

Second Newton law for the Big Block:

F_friction=7ma

u_s*(mg)=7ma

a=u_s*g/7

An air bubble of volume 20 cm³ is at the bottom of a lake 40 m deep, where the temperature is 4.0°C. The bubble rises to the sur
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

100 cm³

Explanation:

Use ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

where P is absolute pressure, V is volume, n is number of moles, R is ideal gas constant, and T is absolute temperature.

n and R are constant, so:

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

If we say point 1 is at 40m depth and point 2 is at the surface:

P₂ = 1.013×10⁵ Pa

T₂ = 20°C + 273.15 = 293.15 K

P₁ = ρgh + P₂

P₁ = (1000 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 40 m) + 1.013×10⁵ Pa

P₁ = 4.933×10⁵ Pa

T₁ = 4.0°C + 273.15 = 277.15 K

V₁ = 20 cm³

Plugging in:

(4.933×10⁵ Pa) (20 cm³) / (277.15 K) = (1.013×10⁵ Pa) V₂ / (293.15 K)

V₂ = 103 cm³

Rounding to 1 sig-fig, the bubble's volume at the surface is 100 cm³.
