First, find the work done. W = f*d, so 160 N * 1 m = 160 J. Then divide the work by the time to get the power. P = W/t. P = 160 J / 0.5 s = 320 W.
The answer is 320 W. Hope this helps, and have a great day! :)
The instant it was dropped, the ball had zero speed.
After falling for 1 second, its speed was 9.8 m/s straight down (gravity).
Its AVERAGE speed for that 1 second was (1/2) (0 + 9.8) = 4.9 m/s.
Falling for 1 second at an average speed of 4.9 m/s, is covered <em>4.9 meters</em>.
ANYTHING you drop does that, if air resistance doesn't hold it back.
Answer: 3.5 seconds
EXPLANATION:
Using the formula:
v = u + at
And taking the upwards direction as positive, we have the following information:
u = 35 m/s
a = -10m/s^2 (this is acceleration due to gravity)
At the top of its path, the apple will have a velocity of 0 m/s, therefore:
v = 0m/s
Once you substitute everything into the formula, you get:
0 = 35 + (-10)t
Therefore, t = 35/10 = 3.5 seconds
These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject of Newton's third law of motion.
<em>Have a luvely day!</em>
