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

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO THE CORRECT ANSWER
LenKa [72]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

We can solve both problems using Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F =m*a

where:

F = force [N] (units of newtons)

m = mass = 1000 [kg]

a = acceleration = 3 [m/s²]

F = 1000*3\\F=3000[N]

And the weight of any body can be calculated by means of the mass product by gravitational acceleration.

W=m*g\\W=1000*9.81\\W=9810 [N]

7. What is the acceleration of a 1,300 kg truck with a net force of 5,000 newtons (N)?
Crank

Answer: 1200 kg

Explanation: Taking into account the Newton's second law, the mass of the vehicle is 1200 kg.

In first place, acceleration in a body occurs when a force acts on a body. There are two factors that influence the acceleration of an object: the net force acting on it and the mass of the body.

Newton's second law states that this force will change the speed of an object because the speed and / or direction will change. These changes in velocity are called acceleration.

So, Newton's second law defines the relationship between force and acceleration mathematically. This law says that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the sum of all the forces acting on it and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Mathematically, Newton's second law is expressed as:

F= m×a

where:

F = Force [N]

m = Mass [kg]

a = Acceleration [m/s²]

In this case, you know:

F= 1800 N

m= ?

a= 1.5 m/s²

Replacing:

1800 N= m× 1.5 m/s²

Solving:

m= 1800 N÷1.5 m/s²

m= 1200 kg

Finally, the mass of the vehicle is 1200 kg.
