The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)
We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Multiply each side by 2 : 2 D = g t²
Divide each side by ' g ' : 2 D/g = t²
Square root each side: t = √ (2D/g)
Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens
to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:
-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .
-- They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside
the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.
Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value
of gravity on the surface of the Earth.
So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.
It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds
to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the
surface of the Moon.
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The instrument that is <span>best suited for measuring the dimensions of a shoebox would be a ruler. A triple-beam balance is for measuring mass. A volumetric flask is for volume. A caliper is measuring lengths of small objects.</span>
Answer:
270 mi/h
Explanation:
Given that,
To the south,
v₁ = 300 mi/h, t₁ = 2 h
We can find distance, d₁
To the north,
v₂ = 250 mi/h, d₂ = 750 miles
We can find time, t₂
Now,
Average speed = total distance/total time
Hence, the average speed for the trip is 270 mi/h.
untrue the bmi machine know best about your body bmi stand for body mass index
It’s hard to perfectly measure the distance something travels, as well as the exact time it takes, making the results have some variation.
