Answer:

14.7 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (t) = 1.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s².

Height = 11.025 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) =?

We, can obtain the initial velocity of the penny as follow:

H = ½(v + u) t

11.025 = ½ (0 + u) × 1.5

11.025 = ½ × u × 1.5

11.025 = u × 0.75

Divide both side by 0.75

u = 11.025/0.75

u = 14.7 m/s

Therefore, the penny was travelling at 14.7 m/s before hitting the ground.

Phobos's Orbit. Phobos orbits Mars at a distance of 9,380 km from the center of the planet and has a period of 0.3189 days. Assu
Elenna [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

The relation between time period of moon in the orbit around a planet can be given by the following relation .

T² = 4 π² R³ / GM

G is gravitational constant , M is mass of the planet , R is radius of the orbit and T is time period of the moon .

Substituting the values in the equation

(.3189 x 24 x 60 x 60 s)²  = 4 x 3.14² x ( 9380 x 10³)³ / (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x M)

759.167 x 10⁶ = 8.25 x 10²⁰ x 39.43 / (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x M )

M = .06424  x 10²⁵

= 6.4 x 10²³ kg .

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

=3.5 m/s

Explanation:

y = x tanθ - 1/2 g x² / (u²cos²θ )

y = 0.25 , x = 0.5, θ = 40°

.25 = .50 tan40 - .5 x 9.8x x²/ u²cos²40

.25 = .42 - 2.0875/u²

u = 3.5 m / s.

Summarize: Based on what you have learned, how will the sound that the observer hears
Reil [10]

Answer: The sound will change due to changes in frequency and the wavelength of the airplane.

Explanation: Let assume that the observer is at a stationary position. The wavelength of the sound from the airplane reduces and the frequency increases as the plane is moving toward the observer. As the airplane passes by, that is, moving away from the observer, the frequency starts to reduce while the wavelength of the sound starts to increase.

The sound that the observer hears will change base on the illustration above.

An ant crawls along a sidewalk with a velocity of 0.1 m/s in a direction that is 45 degrees relative to the edge of the sidewalk
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

C) 1.0 m

Explanation:

The component of the velocity parallel to the sidewalk is:

vₓ = v cos θ

vₓ = 0.1 m/s cos 45°

vₓ = 0.0707 m/s

The distance traveled after 14 seconds is:

d = vₓ t

d = (0.0707 m/s) (14 s)

d = 0.99 m

Closest answer is C) 1.0 m.
