Answer:

Part A

The distance travel by the rock is approximately 132.496 m

Part B

The speed when the rock hits the ground is approximately 50.96 m/s

Explanation:

Part A

The question is focused on the kinetics equation of a free falling object

The given parameter is the time it takes the rock to hit the ground, t = 5.2 s

For an object in free fall, we have;

h = 1/2·g·t²

Where;

h = The height from which the object is dropped

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 m/s²

t = The time taken to travel the distance, h = 5.2 s

∴ h = 1/2 × 9.8 m/s² × (5.2 s)² ≈ 132.496 m

The distance travel by the rock, h ≈ 132.496 m

Part B

The speed, 'v', when the rock hits the ground, is given by the following kinematic equation,

v = g·t

∴ v = 9.8 m/s² × 5.2 s = 50.96 m/s

The speed when the rock hits the ground, v ≈ 50.96 m/s.

List several examples of applied force, normal force, and friction that you’ve observed in your life.

grandymaker [24]

applied forces would be push for example.

normal forces would seem to be a force such as gravity.

friction for example when you try to slide on carpet but the fabric or whatever its made of stops you.

According to meet one law of universal gravitation, gravity increases when?

mina [271]

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every point mass in the universe attracts every other point mass with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Say I have a series circuit with 20v and four 65 ohm resistors, what is the current in each resistor?

Komok [63]

Data:

$E = 20 V$
$R_{1} = 65\Omega$
$R_{2} = 65\Omega$
$R_{3} = 65\Omega$
$R_{4} = 65\Omega$

Now that we have all the values we need properly identified, simply calculate the equivalent total resistance of the circuit and the intensity of the total electric current using the Ohm's Law:

 $R_{T} = R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3} + R_{4}$
$R_{T} = 65 + 65 + 65+ 65$
$R_{T} = 260\Omega$

Like this:

$I_{T} = \frac{E}{ R_{T} }$

$I_{T} = \frac{20}{ 260 }$
$I_{T} = 0,076923076...$

$\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}}$
Answer:
The intensity of the total electric current
 $\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}}$

P.S:. Since the association is in series, the current of 0.07A is the same for all resistors.

Which one of the following statements does not accurately describe vibrations?

Ivanshal [37]

This is an example of resonance - when one object vibrating at the same natural frequency of a second object forces that second object into vibrational motion. The result of resonance is always a large vibration.

Answer D. Forced vibrations, such as those between a tuning fork and a large cabinet surface, result in a much lower sound than was produced by the original vibrating body Because this statement contridicts the above statement, it is not accurate
