8 0

Answer:

45m

Explanation:

Let V_0 be the horizontal speed of the keys and D be the horizontal distance covered by the keys.

V_0= 8.0 \frac ms

D= 28 m

The initial velocity in the vertical direction is 0.

Let g be the acceleration due to gravity, which always acts vertically downwards, so, it will not change the horizontal direction of the speed, i.e. V_0 will remain constant throughout the projectile motion.

Let t be the total time of flight in seconds. So,

D= V_0t

\Rightarrow 28=8t

\Rightarrow t=3 s \; \cdots (i)

Let H be the hight of the cliff.

Now, from the equation of motion

s=ut+\frac 1 2 at^2\;\cdots(ii)

Where is the displacement is the direction of force, is the initial velocity in the direction of force,   is the constant acceleration due to force and is the time of flight.

Here, , and  (negative sign is for taking the sigh convention positive in the direction as shown in the figure.)

From equation (ii)

-H=0\times t + \frac 1 2 (-g)t^2

\Rightarrow H= \frac 1 2 gt^2

Take g=  10 \frac m{s^2} and put the value of t from equation (i), we have

H=\frac 1 2 \times 10\times 3^2

\Rightarrow H= 45 m.

Hence, the height of the cliff was 45 m.

Traveling in circle requires a net force
seraphim [82]

Answer:

<u><em>Circular motion requires a net inward or "centripetal" force. Without a net centripetal force, an object cannot travel in circular motion. In fact, if the forces are balanced, then an object in motion continues in motion in a straight line at constant speed.</em></u>

A man attempts to push a 19.8 kg crate across a warehouse floor. He slowly increases the force until the crate starts to move at
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

 μ = 0.18

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second Law, the coordinate system is horizontal and vertical

Before starting to move the box

Y axis

     N-W = 0

     N = W = mg

X axis

     F -fr = 0

     F = fr

The friction force has the formula

     fr = μ N

     fr =  μ m g

At the limit point just before starting the movement

     F = μ m g

     μ = F / m g

calculate

      μ = 34.8 / (19.8 9.8)

    μ = 0.18

You have 0.5 l of air at a pressure of 203 kpa and -70°c in a rigid, sealed contaainer. what is the absolute tempertaure of the
ANTONII [103]
From the information given and if the question is complete then;
Absolute temperature is the temperature in Kelvin
To convert degree Celsius to kelvin we normally add 273
that is Kelvin = deg Celsius + 273
Thus since we have been given that the air was at -70 degrees celcius;
then; - 70° C  + 273 = 203 K
 Therefore; the absolute temperature is 203 K
