A stone tumbles into a mine shaft strikes bottom after falling for 3.8 seconds. How deep is the mine shaft

Physics
1 answer:
stepladder [879]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

70.8m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Time of fall  = 3.8s

Unknown:

Depth of the mine  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the appropriate motion equation as shown  below;

            S  = ut + \frac{1}{2} at²  

S is the depth

u is the initial velocity  = 0m/s

t is the time taken

a is the acceleration due to gravity

  Now insert the parameters and solve;

    Since u  = 0;

    S  =    \frac{1}{2} at²    = \frac{1}{2} x 9.8 x 3.8²   = 70.8m

How much net force is required to accelerate a 2000 kg car at 3.00 m/s^2
andrezito [222]

The net force required to accelerate a car is 6000 N.

Force is defined as the product of the mass and acceleration of the body. Force is used to changing the velocity that is to accelerate an object or a body of a particular mass. The unit of Force is Newton or kg m/s^2.

The formula used to calculate the net force is :

F = ma

where, F = Force

m = mass = 2000 kg

a = acceleration = 3.00 m/s^2

∴ F = 2000*3

F = 6000 N

Thus, to accelerate the car at 3.00 m/s^2 of mass 2000 kg net force required is 6000 N.

Determine whether the center of mass of the system consisting of the earth and moon lies inside or outside the earth. Assume tha
tester [92]

Answer:

R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m

Explanation:

The important concept of mass center defined by

         R_cm = 1 / M   ∑  x_i m_i

where M is the total mass, x_i and m_i are the position and masses of each body

Let's apply this expression to our case.

Let's set a reference frame where the axis points from the center of the Earth to the Moon,

       R_cm = 1 / M (m_earth 0 + m_moon d)

the total mass is

      M = m_earth + m_moon

     

the distance from the Earth is zero because all mass can be considered to be at its gravimetric center

let's calculate

      M = 5.98 10²⁴ + 7.35 10²²

      M = 6.0535 10₂⁴24 kg

we substitute

      R_cm = 1 / 6.0535 10²⁴ (0 + 7.35 10²² 3.84 )

      R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m
