A helicopter is ascending vertically with a speed of 5.10m/s. At a height of 105m above the Earth, a package is dropped from a w

Luden [163]

Here it is given that initial speed of the package will be same as speed of the helicopter

$v_i = 5.10 m/s$

displacement of the package as it is dropped on ground

$d = -105 m$

acceleration is due to gravity

$a = -9.8 m/s^2$

now by kinematics

$y = v* t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$-105 = 5.1 * t - \frac{1}{2}*9.8*t^2$

$4.9 t^2 - 5.1 t - 105 = 0$

by solving above equation we have

$t = 5.2 s$

so it will take 5.2 s to reach the ground

Kepler's laws and explanations

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The first law states that every planet describes an elliptical path about the sun as a single focus.

The second law states that The line joining the planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals.

The third law states that The squares of the period of revolution is proportional to the cubes of the mean distance between the planet and the sun
