1. A small package is dropped from the Golden Gate Bridge. What is the velocity of the package

Physics

The velocity of the package  after it has fallen for 3.0 s is 29.4 m/s

From the question,

A small package is dropped from the Golden Gate Bridge.

This means the initial velocity of the package is 0 m/s.

We are to calculate the velocity of the package  after it has fallen for 3.0 s.

From one of the equations of kinematics for objects falling freely,

We have that,

v = u + gt

Where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

and t is time

To calculate the velocity of the package  after it has fallen for 3.0 s

That means, we will determine the value of v, at time t = 3.0 s

The parameters are

u = 0 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

t = 3.0 s

Putting these values into the equation

v = u + gt

We get

v = 0 + (9.8×3.0)

v = 0 + 29.4

v = 29.4 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the package  after it has fallen for 3.0 s is 29.4 m/s

You toss a rock up vertically at an initial speed of 39 feet per second and release it at an initial height of 6 feet. The rock
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

2.583 s, 29.77 ft and 1.219 s

Explanation:

Using equation of motion and taken the motion upward as positive, also a = g ( acceleration due to gravity) = - 32 fts⁻², V= 39 fts⁻¹ V₁ is final velocity, y is the distance in ft from the ground

H = 6 ft, the height from which it is tossed

V₁ = V + gt = V - gt

at maximum height the body came to rest momentarily V₁ = 0

0 = V - gt

-V = -gt

- 39 / -32 = t

t time to reach maximum height = 1.219 s

To Maximum height reached can be calculated with the formula

V₁² = V² + 2g( y - H) where H is the initial height reached by the tossed rock

where V₁ is the final velocity at maximum height which = 0

0 = V² - 2g(y-H) where y is the distance traveled from the ground

-V² = -2g(y-H)

₋V² / -2g = y-H

(V²/2g) + H = y in ft

(39² / (2 × 32)) + 6

y = 29.77 ft

The total time it will be in air can be calculated with the formula below

y = H + Vt - 0.5gt² from y-H = ut + 0.5at²

0.5gt² - Vt - H = 0 since the body returned to the ground ( y = 0)

0.5gt² - Vt - H = 0

using quadratic formula

- (-V)² ± √ ((-V²) - 4 × 0.5g × -H) / (2 × 0.5 × g)

(V ± √ (V² + 2gH)) ÷ g

substitute the values into the expression

t = (39 + √(39² + (2×-32× 6)))/ 32 or (39 - √ (39² + (2 × -32×6))/ 32

t = (39 + √(1521 +384))/32 = (39 + √1905) / 32  = 2.583 s

t = (39 - √1905) / 32 =  -0.15 s

The will remain in air (V ± √ (V² + 2gH)) / g seconds. It will reach a maximum height of (V²/2g) + H feet after V/g seconds

1500 kg wrecking ball traveling at a speed of 3.5 m/s hits a wall that does not crumble but is pushed back 75 cm. If the wreckin
Rudiy27

Answer:

The size of the force that pushes the wall is 12,250 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the wrecking ball, m = 1500 kg

speed of the wrecking ball, v = 3.5 m/s

distance the ball moved the wall, d = 75 cm = 0.75 m

Apply the principle of work-energy theorem;

Kinetic energy of the wrecking ball = work done by the ball on the wall

¹/₂mv² = F x d

where;

F is the size of the force that pushes the wall

¹/₂mv² = F x d

¹/₂ x 1500 x 3.5² = F x 0.75

9187.5 = 0.75F

F = 9187.5 / 0.75

F = 12,250 N

Therefore, the size of the force that pushes the wall is 12,250 N.
