S = ut + 1/2 at^2
a = 3.2 m/s^2
s = 15m
Find t
15 = 1/2(3.2)t^2
15 = 3.2t^2/2
30 = 3.2t^2
30/ 3.2 = 9.38
Square root of 9.38 = 3.06
It takes 3.06 seconds

With what initial velocity must an object be thrown upward from a height of 2 meters to reach a maximum hieght of 200 meters
larisa86 [58]
The equations of motion to use for a constant acceleration a = g = -9.81:
v = gt + v_0
y = \frac{1}{2} g t^{2} + v_0t + y_0

at the highest point the velocity must be zero:
0 = gt + v_0 \\ v_0 = -gt
combine both equations:
y =  \frac{1}{2}  \frac{v_0^{2} }{g}  -   \frac{v_0^{2} }{g}  + y_0=  -\frac{1}{2}  \frac{v_0^{2} }{g} + y_0
Solve for v₀:
v_0 =   \sqrt{2g(y_0 - y)}

Calculate the gravitational potential energy of the interacting pair of the Earth and a 11 kg block sitting on the surface of th
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) = 107.8J

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) = mgh

Where mass(m) = 11kg

Acceleration due to gravity(g) = 9.8m²/s

height = assumed to be 1m

Force(F) = mg

Force(F) = 11×9.8 = 107.8N

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) = 107.8×1

= 107.8J

Where does the energy form to give the roller coaster potential energy at the top of the first hill?
inessss [21]
When the winch is pulling it up it's first hill, it is losing it's energy to give it to the coaster.  It starts gaining energy because its height.  Then when it goes down the hill, gravity kicks in and the potential energy turns into kinetic energy.

What evidence can you cite for the particle nature of light? 1. Refraction phenomenon of light 2. The many colors of light 3. Di
GalinKa [24]
Evidence for the particle nature of light are not: 1. refraction, 2.  many colors of light, 3. diffraction. These are all phenomenon that support wave theory of light. Evidence for particle nature of light is photoelectric effect. Because it was discovered that you need discrete energies of light to eject electrons from a metal surface and not continuous as the wave theory of light suggests.
