An egg is Free Falling Down from a nest in a tree (neglect air resistance)​

Physics
1 answer:
DedPeter [7]2 years ago
5 0

We are to calculate the acceleration.

Answer:

-9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Since the egg is in a free fall, it means that the force due to gravity will be equal to the normal force.

Now,

Force due to gravity: F_g = mg

Normal force; F_n = ma

Thus;

mg = ma

m will cancel out to get

g = a

Since it is a free fall motion, then gravity is negative;

-g = a

g has a constant value of 9.8 m/s². Thus;

a = -9.8 m/s²

The velocity of the wind relative to the water is crucial to sailboats. Suppose a sailboat is in an ocean current that has a vel
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall write the velocities given in vector form to make the solution easy.

The velocity of water with respect to earth that is waV(e) makes 30 degree with north or 60 degree with east so in vector form

waV(e) = 2.2 cos 60 i + 2.2 sin 60 j

waV(e) = 1.1 i + 1.9 j

Similarly , velocity of wind with respect to earth that is wiV(e) , is making 50 degree with west or - ve of x axes so we cal write it in vector form as follows

wiV(e) =  - 4.5 cos 50 i - 4.5 sin 50 j

wiV(e) = - 2.89 i - 3.45 j

Now we have to calculate velocity of wind with respect to water that is

wiVwa

wiV( wa) = wiV ( e)+ eV(wa)

=  wiV( e)- waV(e)

- 2.89 i - 3.45 j - 1.1 i -  1.9 j

= - 3.99 i - 5.35 j

Magnitude of this relative velocity

D² = 3.99² + 5.35²

d = 6.67 m /s
