A rock with a mass of 0.3 kg falls from the top of a cliff. If it takes the rock 2.5 s to reach the ground, what was the impulse

on the rock during the fall?

Impulse=force x time
force=mass x acceleration due to gravity
force=
300 \times 10 = 3000
impulse =3000 x 2.5= ( sorry i don't have a calculator right now so you must calculate this yourself)
I converted from kg to g because it is the standard.
Hope this helps you.

Student one used bowling ball A in a bowling game against Student 2, who used bowling ball B. Use Newton’s Three Laws of Motion
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Newton’s Three Laws of Motion has a great impact.

Explanation:

Newton’s Three Laws of Motion has a great impact on the bowling game for the 2 students. When the student one throw ball to the student 2, the ball decrease its speed due to the gravity and opposing air. If these forces are removed from the system the ball will continue its motion till another force is applied on it. When the force applied to the ball it produces acceleration in the direction to the applied force. If the ball touches the ground it bounce back with equal force which is a reaction of the ground.

A bottle lying on the windowsill falls off and takes 4.95 seconds to reach the ground. The distance from the windowsill to the g
mr Goodwill [35]

The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is

                         D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²)

            Distance  =  (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)

We want to see how the time will be affected
if  ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.

                                                      D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²)

Multiply each side by  2 :         2 D  =            g    t² 

Divide each side by ' g ' :      2 D/g =                  t²

Square root each side:        t = √ (2D/g)


Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens
to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes: 

-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
                                             and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .

-- They don't change by the same factor, because  1/g  is inside
the square root.  So 't' changes the same amount as  √1/g  does.

Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly  1/6  the value
of gravity on the surface of the Earth.

So we expect ' t ' to increase by  √6  =  2.45 times.

It would take the same bottle  (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds
to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the
surface of the Moon.

Sound travels at about 360 meters/sec. What is the wavelength of sound with a
ollegr [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

0.24 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Wave velocity ( v ) = 360 m / sec

Frequency ( f ) = 1500 Hz

We have to calculate wavelength ( λ ):

We know:

v = λ / t [ f = 1 / t ]

v = λ f

= > λ = v / f

Putting values here we get:

= > λ = 360 / 1500 m

= > λ = 36 / 150 m

= > λ = 0.24 m

Hence, wavelength of sound is 0.24 m.

Explain why cooler stars are red and hotter stars are blue
sergey [27]
More cool stars produce much of their light in the red part of the spectrum, so you see them, and bam, the color red. More hot stars, however, produce much more of their light in the green and or yellow spectrums, with much more tinier amounts of red / blue. This balance of the colors, your eye, sees simply as white. The more hot something is, the greater frequency of radiation it produces! Blue light has a higher frequency than red light, so the stars that glow red are cooler, than the stars that glow blue. :)

Hope this helped!

Heat transfer by radiation depends on ____​
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Infrared

Explanation:

This is the electromagnetic spectrum just above the visible light spectrum with higher energy (and higher frequency). This electromagnetic radiation is responsible for feeling the heat when you place your hand close to the side of a fire. It is also harnessed in night vision where bodies that emit some form of heat are visible due to their emission of IR.
