A 10 g dime and a 200 g gold coin are dropped from the Empire State Building in

Physics
1 answer:
Lyrx [107]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The both hit the ground at the same time. There is no air resistance and that includes the factors brought up in B.

C and D are both eliminated. If you dropped an 800 kg honda Fit it would hit the ground at the same time as the two coins. When you look at the formulas used to derive time, they look like

d = vi * t + 1/2 a* t^2

vi = 0

the distance to fell is the same for all three masses.

a is the same for all 3 masses.

So when you solve for t, there is no mention of the mass of the object falling. Therefore t is dependent only on the height.

Llana [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes I agree with the statement .

When a person who is perfectly insulated from the earth , touches a Van de Graaff , his body acquires charge . when the hair acquires it, it stands out due to mutual repulsion . It is to be noted here that at pointed areas on a surface , there is larger accumulation of charge. Accumulation of charge is greater at hair tops .

It is also a general observation that when a bird sits on high tension wire , his feather stands out due to the same reason.

Can objects in a system have momentum while the momentum of the system is zero? explain your answer.
alexgriva [62]
Yes.  Momentum is a vector, so several non-zero momenta can add up to zero.  Consider for a simple example a mass of 10kg moving to the right at 5m/s, and another mass of 10kg moving to the left at 5m/s.  These momenta each have a magnitude equal to 50 kg m/s but have opposite sign and so the total system's momentum is zero.

Answer:

Distance = 0.738 m

Explanation:

Solution:  

<u> First convert Km/h into m/s.</u>  

75 km/h * 1000 m/km * 1 hr/3600 sec = 20.8333 m/s  

<u>According to third equation of motion: </u>

Vf^{2} – Vi^{2} = 2 * acceleration * distance

<em> Vf= final velocity </em>

<em>Vi= initial velocity</em>

putting values in third equation of motion....

0.2^{2} – 20.8333^{2} = 2 * (-30 * 9.8) * distance

note:

negative sign is due to deceleration

Distance = 0.738 m

State the<br>the properties of magnets.<br>​
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

All magnets have two poles: the North Pole and the South Pole.

Magnets attract ferromagnetic materials such as iron, nickel, and cobalt.

The magnetic force of a magnet is stronger at its poles than in the middle.

A freely suspended magnet always points in North-South direction.

Hope this helps
