Why does a passenger jumping out of a rapidly moving bus fall forqard with his face downwards​

Physics
1 answer:
Alex Ar [27]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

It's Newton's first law of motion, and object in motion continues to stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. In this case, your body is the force that's moving on the bus. When you jump(the unbalanced force) your body is still used to being in motion, which makes you fall and not land on your feet.

A stone is thrown straight up from the edge of a roof, 925 feet above the ground, at a speed of 20 feet per second. Remembering
Black_prince [1.1K]
<h2>Answer: 469 feet</h2>

Explanation:

This problem is a good example of Vertical motion, where the main equation for this situation is:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)

Where:

y is the height of the stone at 6s (the value we want to find)

y_{o}=925ft is the initial height of the stone

V_{o}=20ft/s is the initial velocity of the stone

t=6s is the time  at which we need to find the height

g=32ft/s^{2} is the acceleration due to gravity

Having this clear, let's find y from (1):

y=925ft+(20ft/s)(6s)-\frac{1}{2}(32ft/s^{2})(6s)^{2} (2)

Finally:

y=469ft This is the height of the stone at t=6s

I need help with my physics homework agh! Please help it's due tomorrow. <br>​
storchak [24]

Rubbing both pieces cause each piece to have a negative charge.

When two parts have the same they repel each other, so holding one piece up tot he end of the other piece would push it away.

Because one piece is held in the middle by a string, it would rotate the piece in a circle.

If they held the piece to the other end of the one held by a string it would start to rotate in the opposite direction.

Bingel [31]

The current passing through a circuit consisting of a battery of 12 V and resistor of 2 ohms is 6 Ampere .

Explanation:

  • Assume the wires are ideal with zero resistance.  
  • The current passing through the circuit will be  

           I = V/R = 12/2 = 6.000 A.
