How long will it take for a rock to fall 50 meters

Physics
1 answer:
denpristay [2]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The force of gravity, g = 9.8 m/s2

Gravity accelerates you at 9.8 meters per second per second. After one second, you're falling 9.8 m/s. After two seconds, you're falling 19.6 m/s, and so on.

Time to splat: sqrt ( 2 * height / 9.8 )

It's the square root because you fall faster the longer you fall.

The more interesting question is why it's times two: If you accelerate for 1 second, your average speed over that time is increased by only 9.8 / 2 m/s.

Velocity at splat time: sqrt( 2 * g * height )

This is why falling from a higher height hurts more.

Energy at splat time: 1/2 * mass * velocity2 = mass * g * height

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

71.19 C

Explanation:

25C = 25 + 273 = 298 K

Applying the ideal gas equation we have

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where P, V and T are the pressure, volume and temperature of the gas at 1st and 2nd stage, respectively. We can solve for the temperature and the 2nd stage:

T_2 = T_1\frac{P_2V_2}{P_1V_1} = 298\frac{0.77*1.8}{1.2*1} = 298*1.155 = 344.19 K = 344.19 - 273 = 71.19 C

Which one of the following statements does not accurately describe vibrations?
Ivanshal [37]

This is an example of resonance - when one object vibrating at the same natural frequency of a second object forces that second object into vibrational motion. The result of resonance is always a large vibration.

Answer D. Forced vibrations, such as those between a tuning fork and a large cabinet surface, result in a much lower sound than was produced by the original vibrating body Because this statement contridicts the above statement, it is not accurate

If a force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion, that force cannot change the object's kinetic energy.
Alina [70]

If a force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion, that force cannot change the object's kinetic energy. It is a true statement .

Kinetic energy is the energy that an object possesses due to its motion. It is basically the energy of mass in motion. Kinetic energy can never be negative and it is a scalar quantity i.e. it provides only the magnitude and not the direction.

According to law of conservation of mechanical energy change in potential energy is equal and opposite to the change in the kinetic energy.

According to the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, The total mechanical energy of a system is conserved i.e., the energy can neither be created nor be destroyed; it can only be internally converted from one form to another if the forces doing work on the system are conservative in nature.

since, potential energy is stored in the form of work done

Work done = Fs cos (theta)

If force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion

theta =   90 °

cos (90 ) = 0

Work done  = 0

since , there is no work done , hence kinetic energy will not change
