A trouble-making youth is standing on a bridge, and wants to drop a water balloon on an unsuspecting passerby. A man is jogging

on a path below the bridge with a constant speed of 4.2 m/s. The bridge is 11.6 m above the ground. If the balloon is to land right at the jogger's feet, at what horizontal distance x from the bridge should he be when the youth drops the balloon?

Answer:

Explanation:

Time needed for a balloon to drop from vertical rest a distance of 11.6 m

t = √(2h/g) = √(2(11.6)/9.8) = 1.538618

d = vt = 4.2(1.538618) = 6.462197...

d = 6.5 m

A box of mass 26 kg is initially at rest on a flat floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

\Delta K = 52J

Explanation:

The change in kinetic energy will be simply the difference between the final and initial kinetic energies: \Delta K=K_f-K_i

We know that the formula for the kinetic energy for an object is:

K=\frac{mv^2}{2}

where <em>m </em>is the mass of the object and <em>v</em> its velocity.

For our case then we have:

\Delta K = K_f-K_i=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_i^2}{2}=\frac{m(v_f^2-v_i^2)}{2}

Which for our values is:

\Delta K = \frac{m(v_f^2-v_i^2)}{2} = \frac{(26Kg)((2m/s)^2-(0m/s)^2)}{2} = 52J

How much current must be applied across a 60 Ω light bulb filament in order for it to consume 55 W of power? Unserious answers w
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: current I = 0.96 Ampere

Explanation:

Given that the

Resistance R = 60 Ω 

Power = 55 W

Power is the product of current and voltage. That is

P = IV ...... (1)

But voltage V = IR. From ohms law.

Substitutes V in equation (1) power is now

P = I^2R

Substitute the above parameters into the formula to get current I

55 = 60 × I^2

Make I^2 the subject of formula

I^2 = 55/60

I^2 = 0.92

I = sqr(0.92)

I = 0.957 A

Therefore, 0.96 A current must be applied.

Imagine that you drop an object of 10 kg, how much will be the acceleration and
Lelu [443]

If you do this on Earth, then the acceleration of the falling object is 9.8 m/s^2 ... NO MATTER what it's mass is.

If its mass is 10 kg, then the force pulling it down is 98.1 Newtons. Most people call that the object's "weight".
