What is terminal velocity and when is it reached?

1 answer:

8 0

Terminal velocity is the velocity at which a falling body experience when its weight is equal to the force resistance of force opposing the fall.

At terminal velocity the acceleration of the body is zero, which implies that the value of the this velocity is a uniform.

Which data set has the smallest standard deviation?

777dan777 [17]

The answer would be B.
<span>
Standard deviation basically measures how spread out the values are. Without solving, you can easily tell which one among your choices have a smaller deviation. The closer the values are to each other the smaller the standard deviation. The values of choice B are the closest together, so you can assume that they have the smallest standard deviation. </span>

Answer:

They are 7.4m apart.

Explanation:

Here we have a parabolic motion problem. we need the time taken to land so:

$Y=Yo+Vo*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2$

considerating only the movement on Y axis:

$0=4.6-(9.81)*t^2\\t=0.68s$

Because we have a contant velocity motion on X axis:

$xs=vs*t\\xs=17m/s*(0.68s)\\xs=11.6m$

and

$xg=vg*t\\xg=28m/s*(0.68s)\\xg=19m$

the distance between them is given by:

$d=|xg-xs|\\d=7.4m$

At what height is an object that weighs 490 newtons if its gravitational potential energy is 4900 J?

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The height at which the object is moved is 10 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on the object, W = F = 490 N

The gravitational potential energy, P = 4900 J

We need to find the height at which the object is moved. We know that the gravitational potential energy is possessed due to its position. It is given by :

$P=mgh\\\\h=\dfrac{P}{mg}\\\\h=\dfrac{4900\ J}{490\ N}\\\\h=10\ m$

So, the height at which the object is moved is 10 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
