The answer is neither the momentum nor kinetic energy is conserved
Answer:
3.9 seconds
Explanation:
Use constant acceleration equation:
y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
where y is the final position,
y₀ is the initial position,
v₀ is the initial velocity,
a is the acceleration,
and t is time.
Given:
y = 0 m
y₀ = 15 m
v₀ = 15 m/s
a = -9.8 m/s²
Substituting values:
0 = 15 + 15t + ½ (-9.8) t²
0 = 15 + 15t − 4.9t²
0 = 4.9t² − 15t − 15
Solve with quadratic formula:
t = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a
t = [ 15 ± √((-15)² − 4(4.9)(-15)) ] / 2(4.9)
t = [ 15 ± √(225 + 294) ] / 9.8
t = (15 ± √519) / 9.8
t = -0.79 or 3.9
It takes 3.9 seconds for the stone to reach the bottom of the well.
The negative answer is the time it takes the stone to travel from the bottom of the well up to the top of the well.
So, a concave mirror is a mirror that goes inward, thus, making a convex mirror have an outward curvature. Ex: A convex mirror is used at the front of a bus.
-Geographic north and south poles are determined by the earth's spin.
-Magnetic north and south is determined by the direction a compass points.
