When your teacher drops a 1.5kg book from rest, it speeds up as it falls down suppose that book hits the ground at a speed of 5m

/s what hight was it dropped from
Physics
1 answer:
Kamila [148]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The height in which the book is dropped from is 1.28 m.

Explanation:

Mass of the book, m = 1.5 kg

initial velocity of the book, u = 0

final velocity of the bok, v = 5 m/s

The height in which the book is dropped from is given by;

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0 + 2gh

v² = 2gh

h = v² / 2g

h = (5)² / (2 x 9.8)

h = 1.28 m

Therefore, the height in which the book is dropped from is 1.28 m.

g A change in the initial _____ of a projectile changes the range and maximum height of the projectile.​
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Velocity.

Explanation:

Projectile motion is characterized as the motion that an object undergoes when it is thrown into the air and it is only exposed to acceleration due to gravity.

As per the question, 'any change in the initial velocity of the projectile(object having gravity as the only force) would lead to a change in the range as well as the maximum height of the projectile.' To illustrate numerically:

Horizontal range: As per expression:

R= (u^{2}*sin2θ)/g

the range depending on the square of the initial velocity.

Maximum height: As per expression:

H= (u^{2} * sin^{2}θ )/2g

the maximum distance also depends upon square of the initial velocity.

Calculate the minimum thickness (in nm) of an oil slick on water that appears blue when illuminated by white light perpendicular
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The minimum thickness = 83.92 nm

Explanation:

The relation between the wavelength in a particular medium and refractive index \lambda_n = \frac{ \lambda }{n}

where ;

\lambda = wavelength of the light in vacuum

n = refractive index of medium with respect to vacuum

For one phase change :

2t = \frac{\lambda_n}{2}\\\\where \ \lambda_n = \frac{\lambda}{n}\\\\Then \ \\\\2t = \frac{\lambda}{2n}\\\\t = \frac{\lambda_n}{4n}

Replacing 1.43 for n and 480 nm for λ; we have:

t = \frac{480}{4(1.43)}

t = 83.92 nm

Thus; the minimum thickness = 83.92 nm

A pencil has a density of 0.875 g/ml. It has a volume of 4.0 ml. Find the mass
loris [4]

Answer:

To find the mass using density and volume we just multiply them against each other which causes ml to cancel and just leaves us with grams which represents how much the item weights.

mass=density*volume

mass=0.875\frac{g}{ml}*4.0\ ml

mass=3.5\ g

Therefore, our final answer is that our pencil weight 3.5 grams

What are the units of measure for distance?
olga2289 [7]
The most common unit is meters (m for short). It is the base unit for distance or displacement in the metric system. If you are dealing with larger distances, you might use kilometers (I'm for short) which is just 1000 meters. On the other hand, centimeter (cm) are used for small distances and are 1/100 of a meter. Another common unit is millimeters (mm) which is 1/1000 of a meter.

microwave ovens rotate at a rate of about 6.3 rev/min. what is this in revolutions per second? (you do not need to enter any uni
levacccp [35]

The microwave ovens rotate at a rate of about 0.105 rev/s.

The microwave rotation is the number of revolutions in a unit of time. To change the unit for angular velocity, assume that the quantity is multiplied by the unit it has. Then change to the desired units. The angular velocity is denoted by ω and has a magnitude of 6.3 rev/min.

ω = 6.3 rev/min

\omega = 6.3 \times \frac{1 \: rev}{1 \: min}

  • 1 minute = 60 seconds
  • The revolution unit didn't change

\omega = 6.3 \times \frac{1 \: rev}{60 \: seconds}

\omega = \frac{6.3 \: rev}{60 \: seconds}

ω = 0.105 rev/s
