The vertical motion of a dropped object from height is a motion that is caused by gravity alone

The height of the cliff and the speed of the bullet are:

1. The height of the cliff is <u>19.6 meters</u>

2. The speed of the bullet when it left the gun is approximately <u>2,245 m/s</u>

<u />

The reason the above values are the correct values are given as follows:

The given velocity of the gazelle, vₓ = 14 m/s

Location where buzzards are seen, d = 28 m from the base of the cliff

The height of the cliff = Required

Solution:

The gazelle fell off the cliff

The horizontal distance the gazelle covered during free fall, d = 28 meters

The time it takes the gazelle to travel the horizontal distance, t = The time of free fall, and is given as follows;

t = \dfrac{Horizontal \ distance}{Horizontal \ velocity} = \dfrac{d}{v_x}

Therefore;

t = \dfrac{28 \ m}{14 \ m/s} = 2 \ s

Vertical distance covered in the time falling freely = Height of the cliff, h

The formula for (vertical) distance, h = u·t + (1/2)·g·t²

Where;

u = The initial vertical velocity = 0

t = 2 seconds from above

g = Constant for the acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 m/s²

Therefore;

h = 0 × 2 + (1/2) × 9.8 m/s² × (2 s)² ≈ 19.6 m

The height of the cliff, <em>h </em>= <u>19.6 m</u>

2. The known parameters:

The direction the bullet was shot = Horizontally

Height from which the bullet was shot, h = 1.4 meters above the ground

The horizontal distance the bullet travels before landing, d = 1.2 km

Required:

The speed with which the bullet left the gun, assuming no air resistance

Solution:

The vertical motion of the bullet is due to gravity and the initial vertical velocity, u = 0

Therefore;

h = u·t + (1/2)·g·t²

1.4 = (1/2) × 9.8 × t²

t² = 1.4/((1/2) × 9.8) = 2/7

t = √(2/7)

Velocity = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}

The\ speed \ of \ the \ bullet, v = \dfrac{1,200 \ m}{\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{7} } s} \approx 2,245 \ m/s

The speed of the bullet when it left the gun, v ≈ <u>2,245 m/s</u>

<u />

A lamp is 10% efficient.How much electrical energy must be supplied to the lamp each second if it produces 20 J of light energy
k0ka [10]

If it produces 20J of light energy in a second, then that 20J is the 10% of the supply that becomes useful output.

20 J/s = 10% of Supply

20 J/s = (0.1) x (Supply)

Divide each side by 0.1:

Supply = (20 J/s) / (0.1)

<em>Supply = 200 J/s  </em>(200 watts)

========================

Here's something to think about:  What could you do to make the lamp more efficient ?  Answer:  Use it for a heater !

If you use it for a heater, then the HEAT is the 'useful' part, and the light is the part that you really don't care about.  Suddenly ... bada-boom ... the lamp is 90% efficient !
