Without air resistance, every falling object has 9.8 m/s² of acceleration,
from the instant it starts falling until it hits the bottom.

None of these things makes any difference:

-- whether you throw the object up, throw it down, or just drop it
-- any horizontal speed it has
-- how much mass the object has
-- how heavy it is
-- what color the object is
-- how far it falls
-- how long it takes.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

3°C

Explanation:

We can that heat Q=mc_p dT

Where m is the mass c_p = specific heat capacity

dT = Temperature difference

here we have given m=625 g =.625 kg

specific heat of granite =0.79 J/(g-K) = 0.79 KJ/(kg-k)

T_1 =25°C

T_2 we have to find

we have also given Q=10.9 KJ

10.9=0.625×0.79×(25-T_2)

25-T_2 =22

T_2=3°C

player kicks a soccer ball from ground level and sends it flying at an angle of 30 degrees at a speed of 26 m/s. What is the hor
seropon [69]

Answer

22.5 m/s

Explanation

We shall use the trigonometric ratio cosine to find the horizontal component.

cos = adjacent/hypotenuse

Adjacent is the horizontal and hypotenuse is the fly speed.

cos 30° = horizontal / 26

horizontal velocity = 26 × cos 30°

                                = 26 × 0.866

                                = 22.5166

                                 = 22.5 m/s

if a stone is projected at an angle of 50 degrees to the horizontal with an initial velocity of 50m/s, what is the vertical comp
Vilka [71]

Answer:

38.3 m/s

Explanation:

To find vertical component of initial velocity, you'd have to use sine ratio:

\displaystyle{\sin \theta = \dfrac{u_y}{u}}

\displaystyle{u_y} is vertical component of initial velocity and \displaystyle{u} is initial velocity given which is 50 m/s.

A stone is projected at an angle of 50 degrees so \displaystyle{\theta} = 50°. Substitute in the formula:

\displaystyle{\sin 50^{\circ} = \dfrac{u_y}{50}}\\\\\displaystyle{50 \sin 50^{\circ} = u_y}\\\\\displaystyle{u_y = 38.3 \ \, \sf{m/s}}

Therefore, the vertical component of initial velocity is approximately 38.3 m/s

Consider two children sitting on a merry-go-round, with one closer to the outer edge and one closer to the center. show answer N
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

They both have the same angular speed.

Explanation:

The mathematical formula for angular speed is:

w=\frac{2\pi}{T}

where w is angular speed, 2\pi is a constant, and T is the period (the time it takes the marry-go-round to complete a lap).

What we can see from the formula is that, since the 2\pi does not change its value, the angular speed depends only on the period T.

In this case for both the children closer to the outher edge and for the children closer to the center, the time to complete a lap is the same, because the time does not depend on where they are sitting in the marry go round. This means that the period for both is the same.

Thus, since the period for both is the same, the angular speed given by

w=\frac{2\pi}{T} will also be the same

An oscillator consists of a block of mass 0.628 kg connected to a spring. When set into oscillation with amplitude 27 cm, the os
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

T=0.372 s, f=2.7 Hz, w=16.9 rad/s, k=179.2 N/m, v= 8.78 m/s, F= 48.4 N

Explanation:

a.)

Period: It is already given in the question "oscillator repeats its motion every 0.372 s".

So T=0.372 s

b)

frequency= f = 1/ T

f = 1/ 0.372

f=2.7 Hz

c).

Angular frequency= w= 2πf

w= 2*π*2.7

w=16.9 rad/s

d)

Spring Constant:

As w=\sqrt{k/m}

⇒w²= k/m

⇒k= m*w²

⇒k= 0.628 * 16.9² N/m

⇒k=179.2 N/m

e)

The mass will have maximum speed when it passes through the mean position.

At mean position

Maximum elastic potential energy = Maximum kinetic energy

1/2 k A² = 1/2 m v²    ( A is amplitude of oscillation)

⇒ v=\sqrt{k A^2/m}

⇒ v= \sqrt{179.2 * 0.27/ 0.628}\

⇒ v= 8.78 m/s

f)

Maximum force will be exerted on the block when it is at maximum distance.

F= k* A   ( A is amplitude of oscillation)

F= 179.2 * 0.27 N

F= 48.4 N
