Answer:
A. Two protons and two neutrons.
Explanation:
Alpha particles are positively charged specie identical to the nucleus of Helium atom.
Most likely it would dislodge the coconut on the way down due to gravity because on the way up the gravity would slow down the rock but on they down the gravity pulls the rock
Answer:
A) s = 796.38 m
B) t = 12.742 s
C) T = 25.484 s
Explanation:
A) First of all let's find the time it takes to get to maximum height using Newton's first equation of motion.
v = u + gt
u = 125 m/s
v = 0 m/s
g = 9.81 m/s²
Thus;
0 = 125 - 9.81(t)
g is negative because motion is against gravity. Thus;
9.81t = 125
t = 125/9.81
t = 12.742 s
Max height will be gotten from Newton's 2nd equation of motion;
s = ut + ½gt²
s = (125 × 12.742) + (½ × -9.81 × 12.742²)
s = 1592.75 - 796.37
s = 796.38 m
B) time to reach maximum height is;
t = u/g
t = 125/9.81
t = 12.742 s
C) Total time elapsed is;
T = 2u/g
T = 2 × 125/9.81
T = 25.484 s
