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.

Calculate the kinetic energy of a 0.032 kg ball as it leaves a hand to be thrown upwards at 6.2 m/s
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The ball will have a kinetic energy of 0.615 Joules.

Explanation:

Use the kinetic energy formula

E_k = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}0.032kg\cdot 6.2^2 \frac{m^2}{s^2}= 0.615J

The kinetic energy at the moment of leaving the hand will be 0.615 Joules. (From there on, as it ball is traveling upwards, this energy will be gradually traded off with potential energy until the ball's velocity becomes zero at the apex of the flight)

Which type of telescope does not require darkness in order to be able to use it?
exis [7]

Answer:

A type of telescope that does not require darkness in order to be able to use it is the refracting telescope

Explanation:

A refracting telescope consists of  a lens and an eyepiece collects light which is then focused to present a magnified, bright and clear  image.

The incident light on a refracting telescope is bent by refraction such that the light is focused to the focal point.

In refracting telescopes, the image is formed by bending light, that is by refraction.

The refracting telescope technology has been applied to binoculars and camera zoom lenses.

Examine the scenario.
vovangra [49]

Answer:

acceleration 8 km/h/s south

Explanation:

First of all, let's remind that a vector quantity is a quantity which has both a magnitude and a direction.

Based on this definition, we can already rule out the following two choices:

distance: 40 km

speed: 40 km/h

Since they only have magnitude, they are not vectors.

Then, the following option:

velocity: 5 km/h north

is wrong, because the car is moving south, not north.

So, the correct choice is

acceleration 8 km/h/s south

In fact, the acceleration can be calculated as

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v = 40 km/h is the final velocity

u = 0 is the initial velocity

t = 5 s is the time

Substituting,

a=\frac{40 km/h-0}{5 s}=8 km/h/s

And since the sign is positive, the direction is the same as the velocity (south).
