3. A ball is dropped from the roof of a building 55 meters tall. What is the approximate time of fall?

Physics

Answer:

3.35 seconds

Explanation:

Use one of the equations of accelerated motion:

Δd = v1Δt+1/2aΔt^2

and rearrange for Δt which is time

Δt = √(2Δd)/a

now we can substitute in the values

a= 9.8 (acceleration due to gravity) and Δd= 55 as that is the height of the building

Δt = √(2*55)/9.8

Δt = 3.3503s

A force did 80 j of work on an object in 4 m how big was the force
yanalaym [24]

Work = (force) x (distance)

80 J = (force) x (4 m)

Force = (80 J) / (4 m)  =  20 N

That's IF the force was in the same direction as the 4m of motion.
If the force was kind of slanted, then it had to be stronger, and
it had a component of 20N in the direction of the motion.

Help me please!! 15points
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in speed over change in time.

a = Δv / Δt

a. The car's acceleration is:

a = (80 km/h − 0 km/h) / 10 s

a = 8 km/h/s

So every second, the speed increases by 8 km/h.

b. The cyclist's acceleration is:

a = (16 m/s − 4.0 m/s) / 5.6 s

a = 2.1 m/s²

c. The stone's speed is:

10.0 m/s² = (v − 0 m/s) / 3.5 s

v = 35 m/s

d. The time is:

1.6 m/s² = (10 m/s − 0 m/s) / t

t = 6.3 s

While eating lunch high up in a skyscraper, two construction workers calculate their gravitational potential
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The mass of the other worker is 45 kg

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The gravitational potential energy of one construction worker = The gravitational potential energy of the other construction worker

The mass of the lighter construction worker, m₁ = 90 kg

The height level of the lighter construction worker's location = h₁

The height level of the other construction worker's location = h₂ = 2·h₁

The gravitational potential energy, P.E.,  is given as follows;

P.E. = m·g·h

Where;

m = The mass of the object at height

g = The acceleration due to gravity

h = The height at which is located

Let P.E.₁ represent the gravitational potential energy of one construction worker and let P.E.₂ represent the gravitational potential energy of the other construction worker

We have;

P.E.₁ = P.E.₂

Therefore;

m₁·g·h₁ = m₂·g·h₂

h₂ = 2·h₁

We have;

m₁·g·h₁ = m₂·g·2·h₁

m₁ = 2·m₂

90 kg = 2 × m₂

m₂ = (90 kg)/2 = 45 kg

The mass of the other construction worker is 45 kg.
