Answer:

44.3 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 100m high. The ball strikes the ground at a point 120 m horizontally away from and below the point of release.

What is the magnitude of its velocity just before it strikes the ground ?

The parameters given are:

Height H = 100m

Since the ball is thrown from a top of a building, initial velocity U = 0

Let g = 9.8m/s^2

Using third equation of motion

V^2 = U^2 + 2gH

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

V^2 = 2 × 9.8 × 100

V^2 = 200 × 9.8

V^2 = 1960

V = 44.27 m/s

Therefore, the magnitude of its velocity just before it strikes the ground is 44.3 m/s approximately

A bike travels at a constant speed of 4.0m/s for 5 seconds. How far it goes ?
alex41 [277]
The speed of 4m/s means that the bike goes 4 meters for each second of movement. Multiplying this by 5 seconds we have a total distance travelled of 20m.

Assuming both graduated cylinders are holding water at room temperature, which cylinder has more thermal energy?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The graduate cylinder with more water has more thermal energy because it is holding more water molecules

Explanation:

Given that the thermal energy of the system is the energy possessed by the system by virtue of the increased motion of the particles by virtue of a transfer  of heat, when the content of the system is heated

The thermal energy, Q is given by the following equation;

Q = Mass, m × The specific heat capacity, C × The change in temperature, ΔT

Given that the graduated cylinder with more water has more mass and therefore, more water molecules, than the cylinder with less water, the cylinder with more water has more thermal energy.
