The equations of motion can be used to obtain the velocity as 44.7 m/s.

<h3>How are the equations of motion used?</h3>

The equations of motion are used to solve questions that bother on kinematics. In this case, we are dealing with motion under gravity. In order to find the final velocity, we have to use the equation;

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh

  • v = final velocity
  • u = initial velocity
  • g = acceleration due to gravity
  • h = height

Since he dropped from a height, u = 0 m/s

v^2 = 0^2 + 2 (10) (100)

v^2 = 2000

v = √2000

v = 44.7 m/s

A 1.4-kg block slides freely across a rough surface such that the block slows down with an acceleration of â1.25 m/s2. what is t
Marianna [84]

Mass of the block = 1.4 kg

Weight of the block = mg = 1.4 × 9.8 = 13.72 N

Normal force from the surface (N) = 13.72 N

Acceleration = 1.25 m/s^2

Let the coefficient of kinetic friction be μ

Friction force = μN

F(net) = ma

μmg = ma

μg = a

μ = \frac{a}{g}

μ = \frac{1.25}{9.8}

μ = 0.1275

Hence, the coefficient of kinetic friction is: μ = 0.1275

An object traveling at a constant speed but with a changing direction is accelerating.
prohojiy [21]

Strange as it may seem, that's true. (choice 'a'.)

"Acceleration" doesn't mean "speeding up".  It means ANY change in
the speed or direction of motion.  So a car with the brakes applied
and slowing down, and a point on the rim of a bicycle wheel that's
turning at a constant rate, are both accelerating.

You are planning to make an open rectangular box from an 8-inch by 15-inch piece of cardboard by cutting congruent squares from
Phoenix [80]

Let us say that x is the cut that we will make on the sides to make a box, therefore the new dimensions are:

l = 15 – 2x

w = 8 – 2x

It is 2x since we cut on two sides.

 

We know that volume is:

V = l w x

V = (15 – 2x) (8 – 2x) x

V = 120x – 30x^2 – 16x^2 + 4x^3

V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3

 

Taking the 1st derivative:

dV/dx = 120 – 92x + 12x^2

 

Set dV/dx = 0 to get maxima:

120 – 92x + 12x^2 = 0

 

Divide by 12:

x^2 – (92/12)x + 10 = 0

(x – (92/24))^2 = -10 + (92/24)^2

x - 92/24 = ±2.17

x = 1.66, 6

We cannot have x = 6 because that will make our w negative, so:

x = 1.66 inches

 

So the largest volume is:

V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3

V = 120(1.66) – 46(1.66)^2 + 4(1.66)^3

V = 90.74 cubic inches

A circular loop of wire of cross-sectional area 0.12 m2 consists of 200 turns, each carrying 0.50 A. It is placed in a magnetic
defon

Answer:

0.52 Nm

Explanation:

A = 0.12 m^2, N = 200, i = 0.5 A, B = 0.050 T

Angle between the plane of loop and magnetic field = 30 Degree

Angle between the normal of loop and the magnetic field = 90 - 30 = 60 degree

θ = 60°

Torque = N i A B Sinθ

Torque = 200 x 0.5 x 0.12 x 0.050 x Sin 60

Torque = 0.52 Nm
