Answer:

Explanation:
given,
weight of swimmer = 510 N
length of ledge, L = 1.75 m
vertical height of the cliff, h = 9 m
speed of the swimmer = ?
horizontal velocity of the swimmer should be that much it can cross the wedge.
distance = speed x time
d = v_x × t
1.75 = v_x × t ........(1)
now,time taken by the swimmer to cover 9 m
initial vertical velocity of the swimmer is zero.
using equation of motion for time calculation


t² = 1.938
t = 1.39 s
same time will be taken to cover horizontal distance.
now, from equation 1
1.75 = v_x × 1.39

horizontal speed of the swimmer is equal to 1.26 m/s
The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)
We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Multiply each side by 2 : 2 D = g t²
Divide each side by ' g ' : 2 D/g = t²
Square root each side: t = √ (2D/g)
Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens
to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:
-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .
-- They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside
the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.
Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value
of gravity on the surface of the Earth.
So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.
It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds
to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the
surface of the Moon.
First let us assign variables,
d = distance travelled
t = time it took
v = velocity of the commercial airline
In linear physics, the equation for velocity is given as:
v = d / t
Rewriting for d:
d = v t
We know that the distance to and from south America are equal
therefore:
d1 (going) = d2 (return)
Let us say that velocity of air is v3. Since going to South
America, the wind is against the direction of the plane and the return trip is
the opposite, therefore:
(v1 - v3) t1 = (v1 + v3) t2
(v1 – v3) 4 = (v1 + v3) 3.53
4 v1 – 4 v3 = 3.53 v1 + 3.53 v3
0.47 v1 = 7.53 v3
v1 = 16.02 v3
Since we also know that:
(v1 - v3) t1 = 784
(16.02 v3 – v3) * 4 = 784
60.085 v3 = 784
v3 = 13.05 mph
Therefore the speed of the plane in still air, v1 is:
v1 = 16.02 * 13.05
