Answer:

t = 1.82

Explanation:

Given

u = 7.70m/s -- initial velocity

s = 30.2m --- height

Required

Determine the time to hit the ground

This will be solved using the following motion equation.

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

Where

g = 9,8m/s^2

So, we have:

30.2 = 7.70t + \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 * t^2

30.2 = 7.70t + 4.9 * t^2

Subtract 30.2 from both sides

30.2 -30.2  = 7.70t + 4.9 * t^2 - 30.2

0  = 7.70t + 4.9 * t^2 - 30.2

0  = 7.70t + 4.9t^2 - 30.2

7.70t + 4.9t^2 - 30.2  = 0

4.9t^2 + 7.70t - 30.2  = 0

Solve using quadratic formula:

t = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

Where

a = 4.9;\ b = 7.70;\ c = -30.2

t = \frac{-7.70\±\sqrt{7.70^2 - 4*4.9*-30.2}}{2*4.9}

t = \frac{-7.70\±\sqrt{651.21}}{9.8}

t = \frac{-7.70\±25.52}{9.8}

Split the expression

t = \frac{-7.70+25.52}{9.8} or t = \frac{-7.70-25.52}{9.8}

t = \frac{17.82}{9.8} or t = -\frac{33.22}{9.8}

Time can't be negative;  So, we have:

t = \frac{17.82}{9.8}

t = 1.82

Hence, the time to hit the ground is 1.82 seconds

Ronch [10]
We Know, K.E. = 1/2 × m × v²
From the expression, we can conclude that Kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass. So, as mass will increase, Kinetic energy will also increase.

In short, Your Correct answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

A planet's density can be measured by combining
Lena [83]

Answer:

a. Doppler and transit observations.

Explanation:

By means of the dopler effect, the radial velocity of an extrasolar planet can be measured, this is achieved by observing Doppler shifts in the spectrum of the star around which the planet orbits. This measure, combined with the transit observations, makes possible determine the density of the planet.

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Repeaters

Explanation:

EMS are communication systems that coordinates emergency medical care among ambulances, 911 (telephone) dispatch centers, and hospital emergency departments. According to my research on EMS systems, I can say that based on the information provided within the question you would need Repeaters. These are a piece of hardware that repeats and extends a signal so that it reaches a greater distance.

1. Block A with a mass of 1 kg and block B with a mass of 2 kg lie on a smooth table. You wish to apply a horizontal force to ea
goblinko [34]

The gravitational force on block B is twice as much as the gravitational force on block A.

<h3>What is Force?</h3>

Force is the product of mass and acceleration. If the mass of A is 1Kg and the mass of B is 2Kg, In order to give the masses the same horizontal acceleration, the magnitude of the force on block B must be twice as much as the force on block A.

Given that the mass of A is 1Kg and the mass of B is 2Kg, the gravitational force on block B is twice as much as the gravitational force on block A.

If I hold block A with a mass of 1 kg in one hand and block B with a mass of 2 kg in the other  and release both from the same height above the ground at the same time, the two blocks hit the ground at the same time, because they both accelerate at the same rate while falling. The greater gravitational force on block B is compensated by its greater mass, giving it the same acceleration.
