If someone were to drop an orb from a height of 34,000 meters approximately, and then drop a second orb at 34,100 meters, estima

te how long it would take for the second orb to reach the ground if it takes the first orb 55~ seconds to impact.
Extra Info:
-The first orb weights 2 pounds and the second orb weights only 2.5 pounds.
-The ground is entirely flat and level. (as if you smashed a flattening board into the ground)
-They are both dropped with no force put into it, simply held up and let go of.
-Both Orbs are the same size, just different density.
-The heights are estimates and are not exact, hence the answer can be an estimated one.

(this question sparked from boredom ._.)
If info required I can provide.

Answer:

Explanation:

SO the ball falls 618 meters per second meaning that's how fast 2 pounds fall per second so i have to find out how fast .5 pounds falls which i think its 154 meters per second per .5 pounds meaning the second orb would fall 772 meters per second so the second orb would take 44.1 seconds to hit on impact. Im not sure if this is right but this is my best guess.

A light platform is suspended from the ceiling by a spring. A student with a mass of 90 kg climbs onto the platform. When it sto
Ilya [14]
Refer to the diagram shown.

When the student climbs onto the platform, the spring stretches by 0.82 m to reach the equilibrium position.
The mass of the student is m = 90 kg, so his weight is
mg = (90 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 882 N

By definition, the spring constant is
k = (882 N)/(0.82 m) = 1075.6 N/m

When the spring is stretched by x from the equilibrium position, the restoring force is
F = - k*x.

If damping is ignored, the equation of motion is
F = m * acceleration
or
m \frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}} = -kx \\ \frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}} + \frac{k}{m} x = 0

Define ω² = k/m = 11.751 => ω = 3.457.
Then the solution of the ODE is
x(t) = c₁ cos(ωt) + c₂ sin(ωt)

x'(t) = -c₁ω sin(ωwt) + c₂ω cos(ωt)
When t=0, x' =0, therefore c₂ = 0

The solution is of the form
x(t) = c₁ cos(ωt)
When t = 0, x = 0.32 m. Therefore c₁ = 0.32

The motion is
x(t) = 0.32 cos(3.457t)
The single amplitude is 0.32 m, and the double amplitude is 0.64 m.

Answer: 
0.32 m (single amplitude), or
0.64 m (double amplitude)

I stretch a rubber band and "plunk" it to make it vibrate in its fundamental frequency. I then stretch it to twice its length an
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The new frequency (F₂ ) will be related to the old frequency by a factor of one (1)

Explanation:

Fundamental frequency = wave velocity/2L

where;

L is the length of the stretched rubber

Wave velocity = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}

Frequency (F₁) = \frac{\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}}{2*L}

To obtain the new frequency with respect to the old frequency, we consider the conditions stated in the question.

Given:

L₂ =2L₁ = 2L

T₂ = 2T₁ = 2T

(M/L)₂ = 0.5(M/L)₁ = 0.5(M/L)

F₂ = \frac{\sqrt{\frac{2T}{0.5(\frac{M}{L})}}}{4*L} = \frac{\sqrt{4(\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}})}{4*L} = \frac{2}{2} [\frac{\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}}{2*L}] = F_1

Therefore, the new frequency (F₂ ) will be related to the old frequency by a factor of one (1).
