There are competitions in which pilots fly small planes low over the ground and drop weights, trying to hit a target. A pilot fl

ying low and slow drops a weight; it takes 3.0 s to hit the ground, during which it travels a horizontal distance of 170 m. Now the pilot does a run at the same height but twice the speed. How much time does it take the weight to hit the ground?

Answer:

Also 3s.

Explanation:

Each component is independent in two dimensional motion. This means that <em>how much time does something take to reach the ground when dropped is independent from any horizontal velocity</em>. If at one run a drop lasts 3s, at another run with twice the (horizontal) velocity and same height will also last 3s, no matter what.

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)

Explanation:

The concept of center of gravity is of great importance since in this all external forces are considered applied, it is defined by

               x_cm = 1 /M   ∑ x_{i} m_{i}

               y_cm = 1 /M   ∑ y_{i} mi

Where M is the total mass of the body, mi is the mass of each element

give us the mass and position of this masses

body 1

m1 = 2.00 ka

x1 = 0 me

y1 = 0 me

body 2

m2 = 2.20 kg

x2 = 0m

y2 = 5 m

body 3

m3 = 3.4 kg

x3 = 2.00 m

y3 = 0

body 4

m4 = 6 kg

    x4=?

   y4=?

mass center position

x_cm = 0

y_cm = 0

let's apply to the equations of the initial part

X axis

    M = 2.00 + 2.20 + 3.40

    M = 7.6 kg

    0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.2 0 + 3.4 2 + 6 x4)

     x4 = -6.8 / 6

     x4 = -1,133 m

Axis y

    0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.20 5 +3.4 0 + 6 y4)

    y4 = -11/6

    y4 = -1.83 m

body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)

A bike travels at a constant speed for 4.00 m/s for 5.00 seconds. How far does it go
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

20 metres

Explanation:

<em>Speed</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>distance</em><em> </em><em>÷</em><em> </em><em>time</em>

<em> </em>

<em>s =  \frac{d}{t}</em>

If we substitute the values:

4 =  \frac{d}{5}

<em>20 = d</em>
