Super Mario and Bowser Jr. are racing around a track when Baby Bowser launches a green shell at Mario, bringing him to rest. Bow

ser Jr. then passes Mario at his top speed of 30 blocks/h, moving down the track in a straight line. Mario quickly accelerates and reaches his top speed of 40 blocks/h in order to catch back up and pass Bowser Jr., but by this point he has opened up a 75 block head start down the track. Mario world measure distance using the units of blocks, with 1 block = 0.47 m.
a) What are Mario and Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s?

Assuming both Mario and Bowser Jr. race to the finish in a straight line at their top speeds,

b) How long does it take for Mario to catch Bowser Jr.?

c) How far down the track is Mario from the point at which he reaches his top speed?

Answer:

(a). Mario's speed in m/s = 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s.

Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s = 3.92 × 10^-3 m/s.

(b). 27001.2 seconds(s)..

(c). 141 metre(m).

Explanation:

So, the following data or parameters or information was given in the question above. These informations are going to help us in solving this question or problem;

=>" Bowser Jr. then passes Mario at his top speed = 30 blocks/h.

=> " Mario quickly accelerates and reaches his top speed of 40 blocks/h in order to catch back up and pass Bowser Jr., but by this point he has opened up a 75 block head start down the track."

=> "Mario world measure distance using the units of blocks, with 1 block = 0.47 m"

Therefore, the solution is given below;

(1). For the first part, we are to determine or calculate Mario and Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s.

Therefore, Mario's speed in m/s = 40 × 0.47) ÷ 3600 = 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s.

Also, Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s = ( 30 × 0.47) ÷ 3600 = 3.92 × 10^3 m/s.

(2). So, the next thing to do now.is to determine or calculate how long it took for Mario to catch Bowser Jr.

Thus, the time it took for Mario to catch Bowser Jr. Can be related as below;

[ ( 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s) - (3.92 × 10^-3 m/s) × (time,t taken for Mario to catch Bowser Jr.) = 75 × 0.47.

Therefore, the time it took for Mario to catch Bowser Jr. = 27001.2 seconds.

(3). Now, we calculate How far down the track Mario from the point at which he reaches his top speed.

The distance = 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s × 27001.2m = 141m

Describa con sus palabras que fue lo que descubrio galileo en su legendario experimento en la torre inclinada de pisa
german

Answer:

En 1589 Galileo realizó un experimento lanzando dos bolas de diferentes masas desde la famosa Torre Inclinada de Pisa para demostrar que el tiempo de caída es independiente de la masa de la bola. A través de este experimento, Galileo descubrió que los cuerpos caían casi simultáneamente, refutando la teoría de Aristóteles de que la tasa de caída era proporcional a la masa del cuerpo.  

Debido a la imperfección de los equipo de medición de esa época, la caída libre de los cuerpos era casi imposible de estudiar. En busca de una forma de reducir la velocidad de movimiento, Galileo reemplazó la caída libre por rodar sobre una superficie inclinada, donde había velocidades y resistencia del aire significativamente más bajas. Se notó que con el tiempo, la velocidad del movimiento aumenta: los cuerpos se mueven con aceleración. Se concluyó que la velocidad y la aceleración no dependen ni de la masa ni del material de la pelota.

What is the distance fallen for a freely falling object 1 s after being dropped from a rest position? What is the distance for a
kondor19780726 [428]
<h2>Distance traveled in 1 second after drop is 4.9 m</h2><h2>Distance traveled in 4 seconds after drop is 78.4 m</h2>

Explanation:

We have s = ut + 0.5at²

For a free falling object initial velocity u = 0 m/s and acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substituting

                 s = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.8 x t²

                 s = 4.9t²

We need to find distance traveled in 1 s and 4 s

Distance traveled in 1 second

                   s = 4.9 x 1² = 4.9 m

Distance traveled in 4 seconds

                   s = 4.9 x 4² = 78.4 m

Distance traveled in 1 second after drop = 4.9 m

Distance traveled in 4 seconds after drop = 78.4 m
