While standing at the edge of the roof of a building, you throw a stone upward with an initial speed of 5.65 m/s. The stone subs

equently falls to the ground, which is 19.9 m below the point where the stone leaves your hand. At what speed does the stone impact the ground? How much time is the stone in the air? Ignore air resistance and take g = 9.8 m/s2. (This is NOT a suggestion to carry out such an experiment!)

Answer:

1. 20.54m/s

2. 1.52s

Explanation:

QUESTION 1:

The speed the stone impact the ground is the final speed/velocity, which can be calculated using the formula:

v² = u² + 2as

Where;

v = final velocity (m/s)

u = initial velocity (m/s)

a = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

s = distance (m)

From the provided information, u = 5.65m/s, v = ?, s = 19.9m, a = 9.8m/s²

v² = 5.65² + 2 (9.8 × 19.9)

v² = 31.9225 + 2 (195.02)

v² = 31.9225 + 390.04

v² = 421.9625

v = √421.9625

v = 20.5417

v = 20.54m/s

QUESTION 2:

Using v = u + at

Where v = final velocity (m/s) = 20.54m/s

t = time (s)

u = initial velocity (m/s) = 5.65m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

v = u + at

20.54 = 5.65 + 9.8t

20.54 - 5.65 = 9.8t

14.89 = 9.8t

t = 14.89/9.8

t = 1.519

t = 1.52s

What are stars made of?<br> How do they expand?<br> How do they explode?
lutik1710 [3]
Stars are made of very hot gas. This gas is mostly hydrogen and helium, which are the two lightest elements,  star is in a delicate and fragile balance between gravity, which would collapse the star to a point, and its internal pressure caused by the energy of the nuclear fusion reaction in the core. When a star's fuel has been spent, it explodes into a giant fireball known as a supernova.. I really hope this helps!!!!

Should you be worried if a n eighteen wheeler truck is riding close behind your car? Explain why or why not. Please help me D:
xz_007 [3.2K]
For some reasons, no. If the driver looks focused and has experience, then it would be okay. Again, it could be dangerous if you bump into the truck, it would cause damage to you and your passengers. 

Mostly, I would agree with 'No'. :)

Calculate the mass (in g) of 346 cm³ of polythene. The density of polythene is 0.95 g/cm³. Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

M = 328.70g

Explanation:

From the given values:

V = 346 cm³

M of 1 cm³ of Polythene = 0.95g or 95/100g

Solve:

M = <u>(95×346)</u>

10

= <u>3</u><u>2</u><u>8</u><u>7</u><u>0</u>

100

M = 328.70g

A car is being driven at a rate of 60 ft/sec when the brakes are applied. The car decelerates at a constant rate of 19
Hunter-Best [27]

The car will take 300 m before it stops due to applying break.

<h3>What's the relation between initial velocity, final velocity, acceleration and distance?</h3>
  • As per Newton's equation of motion, V² - U² = 2aS
  • V= final velocity velocity of the object, U = initial velocity velocity of the object, a= acceleration, S = distance covered by the object
  • Here, U = 60 ft/sec, V = 0 m/s, a= -6 ft/sec²
  • So, 0² - 60² = 2×6× S

=> -3600 = -12S

=> S = 3600/12 = 300 m

Thus, we can conclude that the distance covered by the car is 300 m before it stopped.
