If a penny is dropped from rest from a tower takes 2 seconds to hit the ground, how far did it travel?

Physics

zaharov [31]3 years ago

Answer:

B

Explanation:

t = 2s

u = 0m/s (released from rest)

a = +g = 9.8m/s²

s = H = ?

using,

s = ut + 1/2at²

H = 0(2) + 1/2(9.8)(2²)

H = 0 + 9.8(2)

s = H = 19.6m

An iron block of density rhoFe and of volume l 3 is immersed in a fluid of density rhofluid. The block hangs from a scale which
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

R=m*g-∀fl*g*l3

Explanation:

<em>An iron block of density rhoFe and of volume l 3 is immersed in a fluid of density rhofluid. The block hangs from a scale which reads W as the weight. The top of the block is a height h below the surface of the fluid. The correct equation for the reading of the scale is</em>

From Archimedes' principle we know that a body when immersed in a fluid, fully or partially, experiences an the upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. As the body is fully submerged in water, volume of water displaced  

density of iron =mass/ volume

rho=m/l3

mass=rhol3

weight fluid=rhofluid*g*Volume

weight of fluid=rhofluid*g*l3

F=∀fl*g*l3

Downward force is weight of iron

w=m*g

Reading on the spring scale

R=w-F

R=m*g-∀fl*g*l3

m=mass of iron

g=acceleration due to ravity

rhfld=density of fluid

l3=volume of fluid displaced

A 1.5-kilogram cart initially moves at 2.0 meters per second. It is brought to rest by a constant net force in 0.30 second. What
AnnZ [28]
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning.

The cart's acceleration is

                               (0 - 2 m/s) / (0.3 sec)

                           = ( -2 / 0.3 ) (m/s²)  =  -(6 and 2/3) m/s² .

Newton's second law of motion says

                             Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

For this cart:      Force = (1.5 kg) x ( - 6-2/3 m/s²)

                                       = ( - 1.5 x 20/3 ) (kg-m/s²)

<span>                                       =      </span>- 10 newtons .

<span>The force is negative because it acts opposite to the direction </span>
<span>in which the cart is moving, it causes a negative acceleration, </span>
<span>and it eventually stops the cart.</span>
