This is the formula you need to memorize:  

D = 1/2 · a · T²

Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (Time²)

This formula tells the distance an object falls in any amount of time.

This question tells you the distance (58m), and you know the acceleration (gravity, 9.8 m/s²), so you can use this formula to find the time.

Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (Time²)

58m  =  (1/2) · (9.8 m/s²) · (Time²)

Divide each side by (4.9 m/s²) :  Time²  =  (58/4.9) seconds²

Take the square root of each side:  <em>Time = 3.44 seconds  </em>

Object 1 of mass m moves with speed v in the positive direction. Object 2 of mass 3 m moves with speed 4 v in the negative x-dir
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

This means that the kinetic energy of second object is 48times that of the first object

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion e.g motion of an accelerating car. Mathematically,

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv² where;

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

If Object 1 of mass m moves with speed v in the positive direction, its kinetic energy will be expressed as;

K1 = 1/2mv²

For Object 2 of mass 3m moving with speed 4v in the negative x-direction, its kinetic energy can be expressed as;

K2 = 1/2(3m)(4v)²

K2 = 1/2(3m)(16v²)

K2 = (3m)(8v²)

K2 = 24mv²

To compare the kinetic energy of both bodies, we will take the ratio of K2:K1 to have;

K2/K1 = 24mv²/(1/2)mv²

K2/K1 = 24/(1/2)

K2/K1 = 48

K2 = 48K1

This means that the kinetic energy of second object is 48times that of the first object and moving in the negative x direction since the body of mass 3m initially moves in the negative x direction.

Suppose a 48-N sled is resting on packed snow. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10. If a person weighing 660 N sits on t
Annette [7]

Assume the snow is uniform, and horizontal.

Given:

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.10 = muK

weight of sled = 48 N

weight of rider = 660 N

normal force on of sled with rider = 48+660 N = 708 N = N

Force required to maintain a uniform speed

= coefficient of kinetic friction * normal force

= muK * N

= 0.10 * 708 N

=70.8 N


Note: it takes more than 70.8 N to start the sled in motion, because static friction is in general greater than kinetic friction.

What is the magnitude of the sum of the two vectors A = 36 units at 53 degrees, and B =47 units at 157 degrees.
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

51.82

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert both vectors to cartesian coordinates:

Va = 36 < 53° = (36*cos(53), 36*sin(53))

Va = (21.67, 28.75)

Vb = 47 < 157° = (47*cos(157), 47*sin(157))

Vb = (-43.26, 18.36)

The sum of both vectors will be:

Va+Vb = (-21.59, 47.11)   Now we will calculate the module of this vector:

|Va+Vb| = \sqrt{(-21.59)^2+(47.11)^2}=51.82
