Answer:

vi = 14.610

Explanation:

initial velocity of the first object (vi) = 0 m/s, because it was dropped

distance (y) = -20 m

initial position (y0) = 0 m

acceleration due to gravity (g) = -9.8 m/s^2

y = 1/2 gt^2 + vi*t + y0

-20 = 1/2(-9.8)t^2 + 0 + 0

-20 = -4.9t^2

4.081 = t^2

+√4.081 = t

t = 2.020

time of second object = 2.020 - 1 = 1.020

Now we can plug in the new time to solve for vi of the second object.

y = 1/2 gt^2 + vi*t + y0

-20 = 1/2(-9.8)1.020^2 + vi*1.020 + 0

-20 = -5.098 + 1.020vi

14.902 = 1.020vi

vi = 14.610 m/s

Manuel is holding a 5 kg box. How much force us the box exerting on him? in what direction
Free_Kalibri [48]
It will be 49 Newtons of force in the down direction. To find the force in newtons, you multiply the mass (5 kg) by the gravity (which if 9.8).

Two objects are moving at equal speed along a level, frictionless surface. the second object has twice the mass of the first obj
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

They both rises to same height.

Explanation:

When an object is sliding up in friction less surface than according to conservation of energy its potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy.

mgH=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\\ v=\sqrt{2gH}

Here, m is the mass, v is the velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity and H is the height.

Here the height is independent on the mass of an object and its only depend on velocity.

Now according to the question, two objects have same velocity but they have different masses.

Therefore, they rises to the same height because  height will not change with mass.
