A ball is dropped from 8.5 meters above the ground. If it begins at rest, how long does it take to hit the ground?

Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

d = 8.5 meters

vi = 0

a = 9.81

t = ?

Formula

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

Solution

8.5 = 0 + 1/2 9.81 * t^2       multiply both sides by 2

8.5 = 4.095 t^2                  Divide both sides by 4.095

8.5/4.095 = t^2

1.7329 = t^2                       Take the square root of both sides

t = 1.316

It takes 1.316 seconds to hit the ground.

The speed is 0.956 m / s.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The kinetic energy is equal to the product of half of an object's mass, and the square of the velocity.

                   K.E = 1/2 \times m \times v^{2}

where K.E represents the kinetic energy,

           m represents the mass,

            v represents the velocity.

                  K.E = 1/2 \times m \times v^{2}

    1.10 \times 10^42 = 1/2 \times 3.26 \times 10^31 \times v^{2}

                     v^{2} = (1.10 \times 10^42 \times 2) / (3.26 \times 10^31)

                     v = 0.956 m / s.

A toy train is pushed forward and released at Xi = 4.0 m with a speed of 2.5 m/s. It rolls at a steady speed for 2.0 s, then one
Fittoniya [83]
I don't think that 4m has anything to do with the problem. anyway. here. A___________________B_______C where A is the point that the train was released. B is where the wheel started to stick C is where it stopped From A to B, v=2.5m/s, it takes 2s to go A to B so t=2 AB= v*t = 2.5 * 2 = 5m The train comes to a stop 7.7 m from the point at which it was released so AC=7.7m then BC= AC-AB = 7.7-5 = 2.7m now consider BC v^2=u^2+2as where u is initial speed, in this case is 2.5m/s v is final speed, train stop at C so final speed=0, so v=0 a is acceleration s is displacement, which is BC=2.7m substitute all the number into equation, we have 0^2 = 2.5^2 + 2*a*2.7 0 = 6.25 + 5.4a a = -6.25/5.4 = -1.157 so acceleration is -1.157m/(s^2)

Please help me answer the following question!
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

P = 0

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the quentity of motion contained in a body. Mathematically, it can be defined as the product of mass and velocity. So, in order to determine the Volkswagen Beetle, at rest, we can use the simple formula, as follows:

where,

P = Momentum of Volkswagen Beetle = ?

m = Mass of Volkswagen Beetle = 750 kg

v = Velocity of Volkswagen Beetle = 0 m/s (since, it is at rest)

Therefore,

P =
