An object is dropped from 26 feet below the tip of the pinnacle atop a 702 ft tall building. The height h of the object after t

seconds is given by the equation h=-16t^2+676. Find how many seconds pass before the object reaches the ground.

Answer:

6.5 seconds.

Explanation:

Given: h=-16t²+679

When the object reaches the ground, h=0.

∴ 0=-16t²+679

collecting like terms,

⇒ 16t²=679

Dividing both side of the equation by the coefficient of t² i.e 16

⇒ 16t²/16 = 679/16

⇒ t² = 42.25

taking the square root of both side of the equation.

⇒ √t² =√42.25

⇒ t = 6.5 seconds.

How does the gravitational force between two objects change if the distance
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The Gravitational Force is reduced 4 times

Explanation:

The equation of Gravitational force follows:

F = (G*m1*m2)/r^2

Assume that G*m1*m2 = 1 and r = 1:

F = 1/1^2 = 1 N

Multiply the radius by 2

F = 1/2^2 = 1/4 N

So doubling the distance reduces the force 4 times.

A thin, rectangular sheet of metal has mass M and sides of length a and b. Find the moment of inertia of this sheet about an axi
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The moment of inertia is I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is equal:

I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2} } \, dm

If r is -\frac{a}{2}

and dm=\frac{M}{a} dr

I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2}\frac{M}{a}  } \, dr\\a=\frac{a}{2} \\b=-\frac{a}{2}

I=\frac{M}{a} \int\limits^a_b {r^{2}  } \, dr\\\\I=\frac{M}{a} (\frac{M}{3} )_{b}^{a}\\  I=\frac{M}{3a} (\frac{a^{3} }{8} +\frac{a^{3} }{8} )\\I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}
