Answer:
1.) h = 164.8 m
2.) U = 49.1 m/s
3.) t = 1.43 seconds
Explanation:
1.) A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to the ground. The height of the building is...?
Since the soccer ball is dropped from the building, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero
Using second equation of motion
h = Ut + 1/2gt^2
Substitutes the time into the formula
h = 1/2 × 9.8 × 5.8^2
h = 164.8 m
2. The Falcon 9 launches to a height of 123 meters. What is its vertical initial velocity?
At maximum height final velocity = 0
Using the third law of motion
V^2 = U^2 - 2gH
0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.8 × 123
U^2 = 2410.8
U = 49.1 m/s
3. An apple falls from rest off a 10.m m tree. How long will it take before it hits the ground?
Since the apple fall from rest, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero
Using the second equation of motion,
h = Ut + 1/2gt^2
substitute all the parameters into the formula
10 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2
10 = 4.9t^2
t^2 = 10/4.9
t^2 = 2.04
t = 1.43 seconds
Answer:
The mass of the object, its acceleration due to gravity and the distance between the top of the hill and the ground level.
Explanation:
gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed by a body under influence of gravitational force by virtue of its position.
In order to determine the gravitational potential energy of the brick, we must know the mass (m) of the brick, its acceleration due to gravity (g) since it is acting under the influence of gravitational force and the distance between the top of the hill and the ground level. (The height).
Potential energy of a body is calculated as mass × acceleration due to gravity × height.
<span>B) 0.6 N
I suspect you have a minor error in your question. Claiming a coefficient of static friction of 0.30N is nonsensical. Putting the Newton there is incorrect. The figure of 0.25 for the coefficient of kinetic friction looks OK. So with that correction in mind, let's solve the problem.
The coefficient of static friction is the multiplier to apply to the normal force in order to start the object moving. And the coefficient of kinetic friction (which is usually smaller than the coefficient of static friction) is the multiplied to the normal force in order to keep the object moving. You've been given a normal force of 2N, so you need to multiply the coefficient of static friction by that in order to get the amount of force it takes to start the shoe moving. So:
0.30 * 2N = 0.6N
And if you look at your options, you'll see that option "B" matches exactly.</span>
Although the semi truck certainly has a larger mass, it is not in motion and therefore does not have any momentum. The bicycle however has both mass and velocity and therefore has the larger momentum of the pair.
If you are designing a roller coaster that goes upside down, you may consider of course seat belts or something that goes around you to keep yourself safe.
