A student throws a rock horizontally from the edge of a cliff that is 20 m high. The rock has an initial speed on 10 m/s. If air

fiasKO [112]

The distance of the rock from the base of the cliff is C) 20 m

Explanation:

The motion of the rock in this problem is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction

We start by analyzing the vertical motion to find the time of flight of the rock (the time it takes to reach the ground). We can do it by using the suvat equation:

$s=u_y t+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where, taking downward as positive direction,

s = 20 m is the vertical displacement of the rock

$u_y=0$ is the initial vertical velocity

t is the time of flight

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for t,

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(20)}{9.8}}=2.02 s$

Now we can analzye the horizontal motion: the rock moves horizontally with a constant velocity of

$v_x = 10 m/s$

Therefore, the horizontal distance covered after a time t is

$d=v_x t$

and substituting t = 2.02 s, we find the final distance of the rock from the base of the cliff:

$d=(10)(2.02)=20 m$

At noon on a clear day, sunlight reaches the earth\'s surface at Madison, Wisconsin, with an average intensity of approximately

Dmitrij [34]

Intensity of sunlight at given position is defined as power received per unit area

so here we can say

$I = 2 kJ/s*m^2$

area on which photons are received is given as

$A = 4.80 cm^2 = 4.80 * 10^-4 m^2$

now we can find the power received due to sunlight

$P = I*A$

$P = 2* 10^3 * 4.80 * 10^-4$

$P = 0.96 Watt$

now we can say this power is due to photons that strikes on surface of earth

so here we can say

$P = N\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

given here that

$\lambda = 510 nm$

$0.96 = N\frac{6.6 * 10^{-34}* 3 * 10^8}{510*10^{-9}}$

$0.96 = N * 3.88 * 10^{-19}$

$N = \frac{0.96}{3.88*10^{-19}}$

$N = 2.47 * 10^{18}$

so it will strike 2.47 * 10^18 photons on given area per second

A 10.00-kilogram block slides along a horizontal, frictionless surface at 12.0 meters per second for 6.00 seconds. The magnitude

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

120 kg m/s

Explanation:

The magnitude of the momentum of an object is given by

$p=mv$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the block in this problem,

m = 10.0 kg (mass of the block)

v = 12.0 m/s (speed of the block)

Therefore the magnitude of the block's momentum is

$p=(10.0 kg)(12.0 m/s)=120 kg m/s$
