Answer:

S = 122.5m

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Time, t = 5 seconds

Since it's a free fall, initial velocity, u = 0

To find the displacement, we would use the second equation of motion given by the formula;

S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}

Where;

  • S represents the displacement or height measured in meters.
  • u represents the initial velocity measured in meters per seconds.
  • t represents the time measured in seconds.
  • a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

S = 0*5 + \frac {1}{2}*(9.8)*5^{2}

S = 0 + 4.9*25

S = 122.5m.

A car starts from rest and acquires a velocity of 50m/s in 3secs. Calculate i) acceleration ii) distance covered.
mafiozo [28]

Answer: 75.02 m

Explanation:

u = 0 ( starts from rest )

v = 50 m/s

t = 3 s

( i ) a = v - u / t

= 50 - 0 /3

= 16.67

( ii ) s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 0 × 3 + 1/2 × 16.67 × 3 × 3

= <u>75.02 m</u>

Hope this helps...

An unknown material has a mass
atroni [7]

Answer: 1896.55J/kg°C

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat a material depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = 1320 joules

Mass of material = 5.61kg

C = ? (let unknown value be Z)

Φ = 0.124°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

1320J = 5.61kg x Z x 0.124°C

1320J = 0.696kg°C x Z

Z = (1320J / 0.696kg°C)

Z = 1896.55 J/kg°C

Thus, the specific heat of the material is 1896.55J/kg°C
