Answer:
1. 0.45 s.
2. 4.41 m/s
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Height (h) = 1 m
Time (t) =?
Velocity (v) =?
1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.
Height (h) = 1 m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) =?
h = ½gt²
1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²
1 = 4.9 × t²
Divide both side by 4.8
t² = 1/4.9
Take the square root of both side
t = √(1/4.9)
t = 0.45 s.
Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.
2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) = 0.45 s.
Final velocity (v) =?
v = u + gt
v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)
v = 0 + 4.41
v = 4.41 m/s
Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s
The answer is option A.
Centripetal force is always directed towards the centre and does not change the speed of the body,but there is a change in the direction.
I think the answer should be: “100.4957 N”
Total distance covered = 384 Km
Total time taken to travel from A to B = 8 hours [from 8 am to 4 pm, there are 8 hours]
We know, Average speed = Total Distance Travelled/ Total Time Taken
Therefore, average speed = 384 Km/8 h = 384000m/8×60×60s =(384000/28800)m/s
= 13.3 m/s
Answer is 13.3 m/s
