A plane flying horizontally at 384 m/s releases a package at an altitude of 15,721 m.

Answer:

t = 56.6 s

Explanation:

In the absence of air resistance we can use the kinematic equation

s = ½at²

The package is at vertical rest at the drop point. The horizontal velocity will not matter.

t = √(2s/a)

t = √(2(15721)/9.81)

t = 56.6 s

With air resistance, the time will likely be significantly longer as terminal velocity probably has  been achieved.

Without air resistance, the velocity at ground impact would be

v = at = 9.81(56.6) = 555 m/s

which is almost double the speed of sound in air, so air resistance is not negligible.

Inessa [10]

Given Information:

Initial speed = u = 3.21 yards/s

Acceleration = α  = 1.71 yards/s²

Final speed = v = 7.54 yards/s

Required Information:

Distance = s = ?

Answer:

Distance = s = 13.61

Explanation:

We are given the speeds and acceleration of the runner and we want to find out how much distance he covered before being tackled.

We know from the equations of motion,

v² = u² + 2αs

Where u is the initial speed of the runner, v is the final speed of the runner, α is the acceleration of the runner and s is the distance traveled by the runner.

Re-arranging the above equation for distance yields,

2αs = v² - u²

s = (v² - u²)/2α

s = (7.54² - 3.21²)/2×1.71

s = 46.55/3.42

s = 13.61 yards

Therefore, the runner traveled a distance of 13.61 yards before being tackled.

ddd [48]

Answer:

Wind turbines are a source of clean renewable energy, but some people who live nearby describe the shadow flicker, the audible sounds and the subaudible sound pressure levels as "annoying." They claim this nuisance negatively impacts their quality of life

Which has more momentum, a 2.0 kg dog at 41 m/s or a 75 kg pony at 1.0 m/s?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The dog has more momentum than the pony.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must remember the formula for calculating momentum, which is given below:

momentum = p = m*v

where m represents the mass of the object and v represents the velocity of the object

Using this knowledge, let's calculate the momentum for the dog and the pony.

Dog: p = m*v = (2kg)*(41 m/s) = 82 kg*m/s

Pony: p = m*v = (75kg)*(1 m/s) = 75 kg*m/s

Since 82 > 75, we can conclude that the dog has more momentum.

Hope this helps!
