Answer: 17.68 s
Explanation:
This problem is a good example of Vertical motion, where the main equation for this situation is:
(1)
Where:
is the height of the ball when it hits the ground
is the initial height of the ball
is the initial velocity of the ball
is the time when the ball strikes the ground
is the acceleration due to gravity
Having this clear, let's find
from (1):
(2)
Rewritting (2):
(3)
This is a quadratic equation (also called equation of the second degree) of the form
, which can be solved with the following formula:
(4)
Where:



Substituting the known values:
(5)
Solving (5) we find the positive result is:

Answer:
We know that force applied per unit area is called pressure.
Pressure = Force/ Area
When force is constant than pressure is inversely proportional to area.
1- Calculating the area of three face:
A1 = 20m x 10 m =200 Square meter
A2 = 10 mx 5 m = 50 Square meter
A3 = 20m x 5 m = 100 Square meter
Therefore A1 is maximum and A2 is minimum.
2- Calculate pressure:
P = F/ A1 = 30 / 200 = 0.15 Nm⁻² ( minimum pressure)
P = F / A2 = 30 / 50 = 0.6 Nm⁻² ( maximum pressure)
Hence greater the area less will be the pressure and vice versa.
Answer:
P = 10 kPa
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of a small table, m = 4 kg
The area of each leg = 0.001 m²
We need to find the pressure exerted by the table on the floor. Pressure is equal to the force per unit area. So

So, the required pressure is 10 kPa.
