Answer:

865.08 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Horizontal distance (s) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the cannon to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

62 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

62 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 62/4.9

Take the square root of both side.

t = √(62/4.9)

t = 3.56 s

Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the cannon ball as shown below:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Time (t) = 3.56 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 243 × 3.56 s

s = 865.08 m

Thus, the cannon ball will impact the ground 865.08 m from the base of the cliff.

A jet accelerates from rest down a runway at 1.75m/s² for a distance of 1500 m before takeoff.
babunello [35]
A. Using the third equation of motion:
v2 = u2 + 2as
from the question;
the jet was initially at rest
hence u = 0
a = 1.75m/s2
s = 1500m
v2 = 02 + 2(1.75)(1500)
v2 = 5250
v = √5250
v = 72.46m/s
hence it moves with a velocity of 72.46m/s.
b. s = ut + 1/2at2
1500 = 0(t) + 1/2(1.75)t2
1500 × 2 = 2× 1/2(1.75)t2
3000 = 1.75t2
1714.29 = t2
41.4 = t
hence the time taken for the plane to down the runway is 41.4s.

What is the speed of terminal velocity?
ivann1987 [24]
The so-called "terminal velocity" is the fastest that something can fall
through a fluid.  Even though there's a constant force pulling it through,
the friction or resistance of plowing through the surrounding substance
gets bigger as the speed grows, so there's some speed where the resistance
is equal to the pulling force, and then the falling object can't go any faster.

A few examples:
-- the terminal velocity of a sky-diver falling through air,
-- the terminal velocity of a pecan falling through honey,
-- the terminal velocity of a stone falling through water.

It's not possible to say that "the terminal velocity is ----- miles per hour".
If any of these things changes, then the terminal velocity changes too:

-- weight of the falling object
-- shape of the object
-- surface texture (smoothness) of the object
-- density of the surrounding fluid
-- viscosity of the surrounding fluid .

Two bicycle tires are set rolling with the same initial speed of 4.0 m/s along a long, straight road, and the distance each trav
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The coefficient of rolling friction will be "0.011".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Initial speed,

v_i = 4.0 \ m/s

then,

v_f=\frac{4.0}{2}

    =2.0 \ m/s

Distance,

s = 18.2 m

The acceleration of a bicycle will be:

⇒ a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2s}

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒    =\frac{(2.0)^2-(4.0)^2}{2\times 18.2}

⇒    =\frac{4-8}{37}

⇒    =\frac{-4}{37}

⇒    =0.108 \ m/s^2

As we know,

⇒  f=ma

and,

⇒  \mu_rmg=ma

⇒       \mu_r=\frac{a}{g}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒       =\frac{0.108}{9.8}

⇒       =0.011

Suppose that two objects attract each other with a gravitational force of 16 units. If the distance between the two objects is r
Naddik [55]

Explanation:

Fgravity = G*(mass1*mass2)/D²

G is the gravitational constant throughout the universe.

D is the distance between both objects.

D is now reduced by a factor of 5, meaning Dnew = D/5 we get

Fgravitynew = G*(mass1*mass2)/(D/5)² =

= G*(mass1*mass2)/(D²/25) =

= 25* G*(mass1*mass2)/D² = 25* Fgravity

the new force of gravity/attraction is 25×16 = 400 units.
