We can calculate this with the law of conservation of energy. Here we have a food package with a mass m=40 kg, that is in the height h=500 m and all of it's energy is potential. When it is dropped, it's potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy. So we can say that its kinetic and potential energy are equal, because we are neglecting air resistance:
Ek=Ep, where Ek=(1/2)*m*v² and Ep=m*g*h, where m is the mass of the body, g=9.81 m/s² and h is the height of the body.
(1/2)*m*v²=m*g*h, masses cancel out and we get:
(1/2)*v²=g*h, and we multiply by 2 both sides of the equation
v²=2*g*h, and we take the square root to get v:
v=√(2*g*h)
v=99.04 m/s
So the package is moving with the speed of v= 99.04 m/s when it hits the ground.
The instrument would be a barometer.
Answer:
665 ft
Explanation:
Let d be the distance from the person to the monument. Note that d is perpendicular to the monument and would make 2 triangles with the monuments, 1 up and 1 down.
The side length of the up right-triangle knowing the other side is d and the angle of elevation is 13 degrees is

Similarly, the side length of the down right-triangle knowing the other side is d and the angle of depression is 4 degrees

Since the 2 sides length above make up the 200 foot monument, their total length is
0.231d + 0.07d = 200
0.301 d = 200
d = 200 / 0.301 = 665 ft
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Vertical position is given by
df = do + vo t - 1/2 a t^2 df = final position = 0 (on the ground)
do =original position = 2 m
vo = original <u>VERTICAL</u> velocity = 0
a = acceleration of gravity = 9.81 m/s^2
THIS BECOMES
0 = 2 + 0 * t - 1/2 ( 9.81)t^2
to show t =<u> .639 seconds to hit the ground </u>
During this .639 seconds it flies horizontally at 10 m/s for a distance of
10 m/s * .639 s =<u> 6.39 m </u>
Answer:
Frequency of oscillation, f = 4 Hz
time period, T = 0.25 s
Angular frequency, 
Given:
Time taken to make one oscillation, T = 0.25 s
Solution:
Frequency, f of oscillation is given as the reciprocal of time taken for one oscillation and is given by:
f = 
f = 
Frequency of oscillation, f = 4 Hz
The period of oscillation can be defined as the time taken by the suspended mass for completion of one oscillation.
Therefore, time period, T = 0.25 s
Angular frequency of oscillation is given by:
