Answer:

Vf = 75.4 m/s

Explanation:

In order to find the final velocity of the penny when it would hit the ground, we will use the equation of motion. In this particular case the third equation of motion can be used. The third equation of motion is written as follows:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

Vf = Final Velocity of the penny when it would hit the ground = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity of the penny = 0 m/s (Since, the penny starts from rest)

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = height of building = 290 m

Therefore,

2(9.8 m/s²)(290 m) = Vf² - (0 m/s)²

Vf = √(5684 m²/s²)

<u>Vf = 75.4 m/s</u>

A person driving her car at 48 km/h approaches an intersection just as the traffic light turns yellow. She knows that the yellow
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

She must stop the car  before interception, distance traveled 12.66 m

Explanation:

We will take all units to the SI system

Vo = 48Km / h (1000m / 1Km) (1h / 3600s) = 13.33 m / s

V2 = 70 Km / h = 19.44 m / s

We calculate the distance traveled before stopping

X = Vo t + ½ to t²

Time is what it takes traffic light to turn red  is t = 2.0 s

X = 13.33 2 + 1.2 (-7) 2²

X = 12.66 m

It stops car before reaching the traffic light turning to red

Let's analyze what happens if you accelerate, let's calculate the acceleration of the vehicle

     V2 = Vo + a t2

      a = (V2-Vo) / t2

      a = (19.44-13.33) /6.6

      a = 0.926 m / s2

This is the acceleration to try to pass the interception, now let's calculate the distance it travels in the time the traffic light changes from yellow to red (t = 2.0 s)

X = Vo t + ½ to t²

X = 13.33 2 + ½ 0.926 2²

X = 28.58 m

Since the vehicle was 30 m away, the interception does not happen

In any problems involving circular motion, which way does the tangential speed vector point?
Anton [14]

In what may be one of the most remarkable coincidences in
all of physical science, the tangential component of circular
motion points along the tangent to the circle at every point. 

The object on a circular path is moving in that exact direction
at the instant when it is located at that point in the circle.  The
centripetal force ... pointing toward the center of the circle ...
is the force that bends the path of the object away from a straight
line, toward the next point on the circle.  If the centripetal force
were to suddenly disappear, the object would continue moving
from that point in a straight line, along the tangent and away from
the circle.

Options: A.) 10 N B.) 15 N C.) 25 N D.) 35N
Lady_Fox [76]

Given:

F_gravity = 10 N

F_tension = 25 N

Let's find the net centripetal force exterted on the ball.

Apply the formula:

\sum ^{}_{}F_{\text{net}}=F_1+F_2=F_{centripetal}

From the given figure, the force acting towards the circular path will be positive, while the force which points directly away from the center is negative.

Hence, the tensional force is positive while the gravitational force is negative.

Thus, we have:

F_{\text{net}}=F_{\text{centripetal}}=F_{tension}-F_{gravity}=25N-10N=15N

Therefore, the net centripetal force exterted on the ball is 15 N.

ANSWER:

15 N

Waves transport
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

d)energy

Explanation:

Waves can transfer energy over distance without moving matter the entire distance. For example, an ocean wave can travel many kilometers without the water itself moving many kilometers. The water moves up and down—a motion known as a disturbance. It is the disturbance that travels in a wave, transferring energy.
