Answer:
1. 2.67 s
2. 0.1 m/s²
Explanation:
1. Determination of the time taken for the penguin to fall.
Height (h) of cliff = 35 m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) =?
h = ½gt²
35 = ½ × 9.8 × t²
35 = 4.9 × t²
Divide both side by 4.9
t² = 35 / 4.9
Take the square root of both side
t = √(35 / 4.9)
t = 2.67 s
Thus, it will take 2.67 s for the penguin to fall onto the head of a napping polar bear.
2. Determination of the acceleration of the penguin.
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s.
Final velocity (v) = 2 m/s.
Time (t) = 20 s
Acceleration (a) =?
a = (v – u)/t
a = (2 – 0)/ 20
a = 2 / 20
a = 0.1 m/s²
Thus, the acceleration of the penguin is 0.1 m/s²
Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time. Your Δv is +13.9, since you increased speed by 50 km/h which is 13.9 m/s, and your Δt is 10s. 13.9/10 = 1.39 m/s^2, the standard units for acceleration. Make sense?
Endoskeleton- an internal skeleton, such as the bony or cartilaginous skeleton of vertebrates.
Exoskeleton- a rigid external covering for the body in some invertebrates animals, especially Arthropods, providing both support and protection.
The net force will point towards the acceleration of the object, as supported by Newton's second law.
