A golden-colored cube is handed to you. The person wants you to buy it for $100, saying that is a gold nugget. You pull out your

old geology text and look up gold in the mineral table, and read that its density is 19.3 g/cm3. You measure the cube and find that it is 2 cm on each side, and weighs 40 g. What is its density? Is it gold? Should you buy it?

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of cube=side³

=2*2*2

=8 cm³

Mass of cube=40g

Its density=mass/volume

=5g/cm³

which differs the value given in the text hence it is not gold and u should not bye it...

Instead u should call the police for arresting the person lol...

Is calculating the change of velocity the same as calculating acceleration? ​
koban [17]

Answer:

Yes! Thinking about it graphically a position vs time graph models meters per second in most cases, making every point on the line have the units m/s. If we want the find the slope we are finding the change between each point and those units would change to m/s/s or m/s^2 giving us the same units for acceleration. Simply put, slope of a velocity graph gives us acceleration.

A jet is travelling at a speed of 1200 km/h and drops cargo from a height of 2.5 km above the ground Calculate the time it takes
OLEGan [10]

a) Time of flight: 22.6 s

To calculate the time it takes for the cargo to reach the ground, we just consider the vertical motion of the cargo.

The vertical position at time t is given by

y(t) = h +u_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 2.5 km = 2500 m is the initial height

u_y = 0 is the initial vertical velocity of the cargo

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

The cargo reaches the ground when

y(t) = 0

So substituting it into the equation and solving for t, we find the time of flight of the cargo:

0 = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(2500)}{9.8}}=22.6 s

b) 7.5 km

The range travelled by the cargo can be calculated by considering its horizontal motion only. In fact, the horizontal motion is a uniform motion, with constant velocity equal to the initial velocity of the jet:

v_x = 1200 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=333.3 m/s

So the horizontal distance travelled is

d=v_x t

And if we substitute the time of flight,

t = 22.6 s

We find the range of the cargo:

d=(333.3)(22.6)=7533 m = 7.5 km
