Describe how the student should measure the time taken for the toy parachute to

1 answer:

The time must be measured with respect to gravity. As it falls, it has free fall that is the force acting on it will be the gravity.With the distance in account, d = 1/2 gt²

t = √(2d/g)

Just do energy spent divided by time to get your answer :). With this we can say a human might be able to!

If rho(x,y) is the density of a wire (mass per unit length), then

lidiya [134]

Answer:

See description

Explanation:

With the given information we have:

$x(t) = 1 + cos(t)\\ y(t)=sin(t)\\ \rho(x,y) = 3x$

the interval is $[0,\pi ]$

now the mass $m$ has the given expression:

$m = \int \rho(x,y) dS$

we will use the formula for a line integral and let:

$dS=\sqrt{x'(t)^2 + y'(t)^2}=\sqrt{cos(t)^2 + sin(t)^2}dt=dt$

therefore we have:

$m=\int \rho(x,y)dS=\int\limits^\pi_0 {3*x}dS=\int\limits^\pi _0{3*(1+cos(t))dS\\=\int\limits^\pi _0{3*(1+cos(t))dt$

we solve the integral:

$m=3*\int\limits^\pi _0{(1+cos(t))dt= 3*(t+sin(t))\limits^\pi _0=3*\pi=9.42$

A roller coaster accelerates from 0 m/s to 25 m/s in 5 seconds. Determine the acceleration of the roller coaster.

Rahman drops two stones P and Q each of mass 1 kg and 2 kg simultaneously from

kolbaska11 [484]

This question involves the use of the equations of motion for vertical motion.

The time taken by the stones P and Q to reach the ground is the same, that is "2 s".

The velocity with which Q hits the ground is "20 m/s".

The time taken by the stones to reach the ground can be calculated by using the second equation of motion for the vertical motion:

$h = v_it+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

For both the stones P and Q:

h = height = 20 m

$v_i$ = initial velocity = 0 m/s

t = time = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

Therefore,

$20\ m = (0\ m/s)t+\frac{1}{2}(10\ m/s^2)(t)^2\\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{20\ m}{5\ m/s^2}}$

t = 2 s

Hence, the time taken by both the stones to reach the ground is the same.

To find the final velocity of stone Q we will use the first equation of motion for the vertical motion:

$v_f=v_i+gt\\v_f = 0\ m/s+(10\ m/s^2)(2\ s)\\v_f = 20\ m/s$
