Galileo discovered that gravity affects acceleration of objects regardless of their mass. The cannon balls were different weights and were dropped from different heights yet both balls landed at the same time.
Given the final velocity (Vf) and the acceleration (a), the distance that should be traveled by the plane is calculated through the equation,
d = (Vf² - Vi²) / 2a
V1 should be zero because the light plane started the motion from rest. Substituting the given values,
d = ((33 m/s)² - 0)) / 2(3 m/s²)
The distance is therefore equal to 181.5 meters.
Answer:
The average death rate for this type of event is closest to 350 people per event.
Explanation:
Between the years 2048 and 2057
Is 10 years. Since there is only one chance of event between these years, there is no point to consider it.
The total number of events = 2940 chances.
average death rate per event = total number of dead people divided by total number of events of occurrence.
1000000/2940 = 340.134
The average death rate for this type of event is therefore closest to 350 people per event
