An object is dropped from a height of 50 meters. Ignoring air resistance, how long doe take to hit the ground?

3 0

here given that object is dropped from height h = 50 m

So here we can say

initial speed is ZERO

acceleration is due to gravity

now in order to find time to reach the ground we can use kinematics

y = v_i*t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

now plug in all values in it

50 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 9.8(t^2)

t = 3.2 s

so it will take 3.2 s to reach the ground

A rifle fires a 2.10 x 10^-2 kg pellet straight upward, because the pellet rests on a compressed spring when the trigger is is p
yKpoI14uk [10]

m = mass of pellet = 2.10 x 10⁻² kg

x = compression of spring at the time launch = 9.10 x 10⁻² m

h = height gained by the pellet above the initial position = 6.10 m

k = spring constant

using conservation of energy

spring potential energy = gravitational potential energy of pellet

(0.5) k x² = m g h

inserting the values

(0.5) k (9.10 x 10⁻²)² = (2.10 x 10⁻²) (9.8) (6.10)

k = 303.2 N/m

The force that attracts earth to an object is equal to and opposite the force that earth exerts on the object. Explain why earth
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Because of heavy mass

Explanation:

When force acts on a body it tends to accelerate the body. The acceleration produced in the body depends on two things:

1). Magnitude of force

2). Mass of the body

F= ma

⇒ a = F/m  

As the force exerted on earth and another object are the equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. This forces will accelerate the object toward the earth but can't accelerate the earth as earth has very high mass.

a = F/m

This force tends to accelerate the earth but but due to earth's inertia the earth does not accelerate.

A 2.5 m segment of wire supplying current to the motor of a submerged submarine carries 1050 A and feels a 3.6 N repulsive force
Zanzabum

force between two parallel wire is

f/l = mueo*i1i2/2pir

f/l = 2*10^-7*i1i2/rl

i2 = f*r/2*10^-7*i1

i2 = 342.9 A

A 2.0-Coulomb bead is given 20 Joules of electric potential energy by lifting it from the "ground" to point A. If a second bead
Katen [24]

Answer:

40 J

Explanation:

c_1 = 4 C

c_2 = 2 C

U_1 = 20 J

The potential energy is directly proportional to the charge of the particle

U\propto c

\dfrac{U_2}{U_1}=\dfrac{c_2}{c_1}\\\Rightarrow U_2=\dfrac{U_1c_2}{c_1}\\\Rightarrow U_2=\dfrac{20\times 4}{2}\\\Rightarrow U_2=40\ J

The potential energy expected is 40 J
