Answer:

80 ft/s

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 100 ft

v₀ = 0 ft/s

a = 32.2 ft/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (0 ft/s)² + 2 (32.2 ft/s²) (100 ft)

v = 80.2 ft/s

Rounded, the speed when it reaches the ground is 80 ft/s.

A string that passes over a pulley has a 0.341 kg mass attached to one end and a 0.625 kg mass attached to the other end. The pu

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The frictional torque is $\tau = 0.2505 \ N \cdot m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass attached to one end the string is $m_1 = 0.341 \ kg$

The mass attached to the other end of the string is $m_2 = 0.625 \ kg$

The radius of the disk is $r = 9.00 \ cm = 0.09 \ m$

At equilibrium the tension on the string due to the first mass is mathematically represented as

$T_1 = m_1 * g$

substituting values

$T_1 = 0.341 * 9.8$

$T_1 = 3.342 \ N$

At equilibrium the tension on the string due to the mass is mathematically represented as

$T_2 = m_2 * g$

$T_2 = 0.625 * 9.8$

$T_2 = 6.125 \ N$

The frictional torque that must be exerted is mathematically represented as

$\tau = (T_2 * r ) - (T_1 * r )$

substituting values

$\tau = ( 6.125 * 0.09 ) - (3.342 * 0.09 )$

$\tau = 0.2505 \ N \cdot m$

Explain how a star's absorption spectrum and the concept of red shift help support the Big Bang Theory.

marta [7]

Answer:

Red shift supports the big bang theory. ... The light from distant galaxies is red shifted (this tells us the galaxies are moving away from us) and the further away the galaxy the greater the red shift (this tells us that the more distant the galaxy the faster it is moving). Constellations look like they are moving because earth is rotating on it's axis.

May I have brainliest, please?

Find the mass of a 52.2N bucket.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

m = 5.22 kg

Explanation:

The force acting on the bucket is 52.2 N.

We need to find the mass of the bucket.

The force acting on the bucket is given by :

F = mg

g is acceleration due to gravity

m is mass

$m=\dfrac{F}{g}\\\\m=\dfrac{52.2}{10}\\\\=5.22\ kg$

So, the mass of the bucket is 5.22 kg.
