Explanation: A consistent method of measurement means using a defined set of steps or defined measurement technique to measure anything. For example when we measure distance we always measure it in meters or kilometers, not in feet. And this would not change even if we measure anything for n times. There are different types of units for different measurements. For example seconds(time), grams(mass) etc.

Please help with these physics problems 1. A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

1.) h = 164.8 m

2.) U = 49.1 m/s

3.) t = 1.43 seconds

Explanation:

1.) A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to the ground. The height of the building is...? 

Since the soccer ball is dropped from the building, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Substitutes the time into the formula

h = 1/2 × 9.8 × 5.8^2

h = 164.8 m

2. The Falcon 9 launches to a height of 123 meters. What is its vertical initial velocity?

At maximum height final velocity = 0

Using the third law of motion

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.8 × 123

U^2 = 2410.8

U = 49.1 m/s

3. An apple falls from rest off a 10.m m tree. How long will it take before it hits the ground?

Since the apple fall from rest, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using the second equation of motion,

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

substitute all the parameters into the formula

10 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

10 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 10/4.9

t^2 = 2.04

t = 1.43 seconds

what equastion do you use to solve Riders in a carnival ride stand with their backs against the wall of a circular room of diame
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

μsmín = 0.1

Explanation:

  • There are three external forces acting on the riders, two in the vertical direction that oppose each other, the force due to gravity (which we call weight) and the friction force.
  • This friction force has a maximum value, that can be written as follows:

       F_{frmax} = \mu_{s} *F_{n} (1)

       where  μs is the coefficient of static friction, and Fn is the normal force,

       perpendicular to the wall and aiming to the center of rotation.

  • This force is the only force acting in the horizontal direction, but, at the same time, is the force that keeps the riders rotating, which is the centripetal force.
  • This force has the following general expression:

       F_{c} =  m* \omega^{2} * r (2)

       where ω is the angular velocity of the riders, and r the distance to the

      center of rotation (the  radius of the circle), and m the mass of the

      riders.

      Since Fc is actually Fn, we can replace the right side of (2) in (1), as

      follows:

     F_{frmax} = m* \mu_{s} * \omega^{2} * r (3)

  • When the riders are on the verge of sliding down, this force must be equal to the weight Fg, so we can write the following equation:

       m* g = m* \mu_{smin} * \omega^{2} * r (4)

  • (The coefficient of static friction is the minimum possible, due to any value less than it would cause the riders to slide down)
  • Cancelling the masses on both sides of (4), we get:

       g = \mu_{smin} * \omega^{2} * r (5)

  • Prior to solve (5) we need to convert ω from rev/min to rad/sec, as follows:

      60 rev/min * \frac{2*\pi rad}{1 rev} *\frac{1min}{60 sec} =6.28 rad/sec (6)

  • Replacing by the givens in (5), we can solve for μsmín, as follows:

       \mu_{smin} = \frac{g}{\omega^{2} *r}  = \frac{9.8m/s2}{(6.28rad/sec)^{2} *2.5 m} =0.1 (7)

Calculate the minimum thickness (in nm) of an oil slick on water that appears blue when illuminated by white light perpendicular
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The minimum thickness = 83.92 nm

Explanation:

The relation between the wavelength in a particular medium and refractive index \lambda_n = \frac{ \lambda }{n}

where ;

\lambda = wavelength of the light in vacuum

n = refractive index of medium with respect to vacuum

For one phase change :

2t = \frac{\lambda_n}{2}\\\\where \ \lambda_n = \frac{\lambda}{n}\\\\Then \ \\\\2t = \frac{\lambda}{2n}\\\\t = \frac{\lambda_n}{4n}

Replacing 1.43 for n and 480 nm for λ; we have:

t = \frac{480}{4(1.43)}

t = 83.92 nm

Thus; the minimum thickness = 83.92 nm
