Answer:

The light bulb will reach the ground 1.25 seconds after it is dropped.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for an object that is in the air, the only force acting on it will be the gravitational force (where we are ignoring the air resistance)

Then the acceleration of the object is the gravitational acceleration, 32.17 ft/s^2

Then the acceleration of the light bulb is:

A(t) = (-32.17 ft/s^2)

Where the negative sign is because the acceleration is downwards.

Now, to get the velocity equation, we need to integrate the acceleration over time, we will get:

V(t) = (-32.17 ft/s^2)*t + V0

Where V0 is the initial velocity of the light bulb. Because it is dropped, the initial velocity will be zero, then V0 = 0m/s, then the velocity equation is:

V(t) =  (-32.17 ft/s^2)*t

Finally, to get the position equation we need to integrate again, we will get:

P(t) = (1/2)*(-32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2 + P0

Where P0 is the initial height of the object, and in this case, we know that it is equal to 25 ft.

Then the position equation is:

P(t) = (1/2)*(-32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2 + 25ft

The object will hit the ground when P(t) = 0 ft, then we need to solve that equation for t:

P(t) =  (1/2)*(-32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2 + 25ft = 0 ft

          25 ft =  (1/2)*(32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2

         2*25ft = (32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2

           50ft =  (32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2

         √( 50ft/(32.17 ft/s^2)) = t = 1.25 s

The light bulb will reach the ground 1.25 seconds after it is dropped.

The earth has an average diameter of 12.800km. If you walked 24 hours a day, 5 days a week (and if you could walk on water)at a
Dimas [21]
1) Circumference of Earth: Diameter x π → 12,800 x π = 40,212.39 km 

2) time in Hour = distance/speed → distance = 40,212.39 and speed = 2 Mi/h 

1st: convert miles into km : 1 mile = 1.609344 km and 2 miles = 3.218688 km
2nd: convert speed into km/h → speed = 3.218688 km/h
And time in hour = 40,212.39 / 3.218688 → time = 12,493 hours  OR in days:
12,493 / 24 = 521 days (OR 104 weeks, including 2 days of rest)

Given the diagram below find x, and the measure of
Sophie [7]

Answer:

8, 40 , 50

Step-by-step explanation:

the measure of A is 90°

so 5x + 7x - 6 = 90

now.. to find the x

5x + 7x - 6 = 90

5x + 7x = 90 + 6

12x = 96

x = 96/12

x = 8

so the measure of angle A1 is (5*8) = 40

the measure of angle A2 is (7*8-6) = 50

finaly the angle A is (50+40) = 90
