Answer:
35.28m/s; 63.50m
Explanation:
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Time, t = 3.6 secs
Since it's a free fall, acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
Initial velocity, u = 0
To find the final velocity, we would use the first equation of motion;
Substituting into the equation, we have;
V = 35.28m/s
Therefore, the final velocity of the penny is 35.28m/s.
To find the height, we would use the second equation of motion;
Substituting the values into the equation;
S = 63.50m
Therefore, the height of the tower is 63.50m.
Answer:
Force that acted on the body was F = 13 N
Explanation:
If once accelerated, the body covers 60 meters in 6 seconds, then its velocity is 60/6 m/s = 10 m/s
When the force was acting (for 10 seconds) the object accelerated from rest (initial velocity vi = 0) to 10 m/s (its final velocity). therefore we can use the kinematic equation for the velocity in an accelerated motion given by:
which in our case becomes;
and we can solve for the acceleration as:
a = 10/10 m/s^2 = 1 m/s^2
Therefore the force acting on the body, based on Newton's 2nd Law expression: F = m * a is:
F = 13 kg * 1 m/s^2 = 13 N
