Answer:

The velocity of the ball after 5 seconds will be 49 m/s

Explanation:

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity

t = time

Initial velocity of the ball = 0 (As the ball is dropped from rest )

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s

Time taken = 5 sec

As the acceleration due to gravity is constant in both the cases we can use the equations of motion in order to solve this question

Part I :- As we already know the values of u,g,ant t we can use the first equation of motion in order to find v

Part II :- As we know the values of u, t , g we can use the second equation of motion in order to find s.

Velocity of the ball after 5 seconds

Distance covered by the ball in 5 sec

How many times higher could an astronaut jump on the Moon than on Earth if his takeoff speed is the same in both locations (grav

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

maximum height on moon is 6 times more than the maximum height on Earth

Explanation:

Let the Astronaut has its maximum speed by which he can jump is "v"

now for the maximum height that it can jump is given as

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 aH$

now from above equation we will have

$0 - v^2 = 2(-g)H$

now we have

$H = \frac{v^2}{2g}$

now if Astronaut jump on the surface of moon with same speed

then we know that the acceleration of gravity on surface of moon is 1/6 times the gravity on earth

so at surface of moon we have

$0 - v^2 = 2(-g/6) H$

now we have

$H = \frac{6v^2}{2g}$

so maximum height on moon is 6 times more than the maximum height on Earth

Three kids are riding on a snow sled traveling horizontally without friction at 19.8 m/s. The masses of Kid A, B, and C are 42.8

Kamila [148]

Answer:

34.6 m/s

Explanation:

From conservation of momentum, the sum of initial and final momentum are equal. Momentum is a product of mass and velocity. Initial mass will be 42.8+31.5+25.9=100.2 kg

Final mass will be 31.5+25.9=57.4 kg

From formula of momentum

M1v1=m2v2

Making v2 the subject of the formula then

$V2=\frac {M1v1}{m2}$

Substitute 100.2 kg for M1, 19.8 m/s fkr v1 and 57.4 kg for m2 then

$V2=\frac {100.2 kg\times 19.8 m/s}{57.4 kg}=34.56376 m/s\approx 34.6 m/s$
