Answer:

27.1m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of the building  = 30m

Initial velocity  = 12m/s

Unknown:

Final velocity  = ?

Solution:

We apply one of the kinematics equation to solve this problem:

         v²  = u²  + 2gh

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

          v²   = 12²  + (2 x 9.8 x 30)

          v  = 27.1m/s

If an object is thrown upward at 128 feet per second from a height of 76 feet, its height S after t seconds is given by the foll
faltersainse [42]
<h2>a) Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward</h2><h2>b) Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward</h2>

Explanation:

a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²

    s(0) = 76 + 128 x 0 − 16 x 0² = 76 ft

    s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft

    Displacement in 4 seconds = 332 - 76 = 256 ft

    Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

    \texttt{Velocity = }\frac{256}{4}=64ft/s

    Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward

a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²

    s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft

    s(8) = 76 + 128 x 8 − 16 x 8² = 78 ft

    Displacement in 4 seconds = 78 - 332 = -254 ft

    Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

    \texttt{Velocity = }\frac{-254}{4}=-63.5ft/s

    Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward

Why do you like the full moon ?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

<h3>The Moon brings perspective. Observing the Moon, and I mean really looking – sitting comfortably, or lying down on a patch of grass and letting her light fill your eyes, it's easy to be reminded of how ancient and everlasting the celestial bodies are. When I do this, it always puts my life into perspective.</h3>

Masses A and B rest on very light pistons that enclose a fluid.There is no friction between the pistons and the cylinders they f
RSB [31]

Answer:

D)Not enough information

Explanation:

According to Pascal's principle, the pressure exerted on the two pistons is equal:

p_A = p_B

Pressure is given by the ratio between force F and area A, so we can write

\frac{F_A}{A_A}=\frac{F_B}{A_B}

The force exerted on each piston is just equal to the weight of the corresponding mass: F=W=mg, where m is the mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. So the equation becomes

\frac{m_A g}{A_A}=\frac{m_B g}{A_B}

Now we can rewrite the mass as the product of volume, V, times density, d:

\frac{V_A d_A g}{A_A}=\frac{V_B d_B g}{A_B}

We also know that A_B = 2.0 m^2\\A_A = 1.0 m^2

So we can further re-arrange the equation (and simplify g as well):

\frac{V_A d_A}{1}=\frac{V_B d_B}{2}

\frac{d_A}{d_B}=\frac{V_B}{2V_A}

We are also told that block B has bigger volume than block A: V_B > V_A. However, this information is not enough to allow us to say if the fraction on the right is greater than 1 or smaller than 1: therefore, we cannot conclude anything about the densities of the two objects.
