A brick falls from a wall to the ground 3.42 m below. How much time will it take to

Physics

Answer:

The time taken by the brick to hit the ground, t = 0.84 s

Explanation:

Given that,

A brick falls from a height, h = 3.42 m

The initial velocity of the brick is zero.

Since the brick is under free-falling. The time equation of a free-falling body when the displacement is given is

                                     t = \sqrt{2h/g}

where,

                                 h - height from surface in meters

                                 g - acceleration due to gravity

on substituting the values in the above equation,

                                 t =  \sqrt{2X3.14/9.8}

                                   = 0.84 s

Hence, time taken by the brick to hit the ground is t = 0.84 s

The three forces acting on a hot-air balloon that is moving vertically are its weight, the force due to air resistance and the u
irinina [24]

Explanation :

The forces acting on hot- air balloon are:

Weight, (W)

Force due to air resistance, (F)

Upthrust force, (U)

Its weight W is acting in downward direction. The upthrust force U acts in upward direction. When the balloon is moving upward, the air resistance is in downward and vice versa.

In this case, the hot-air balloon descends vertically at constant speed.

so, a=0

and F=ma=0

so, W = F + U ....................(1)

when it is ascending let the weight that it is releasing is R, so

(W-R) + F = U..........(2)

solving equation (1) and (2)

(W-R)+F=W-F

R=2F            

2F is the weight of material that must be released from the balloon so that it ascends vertically at the same constant speed.

A coin is placed on a large disk which rotates uniformly at a rate of 1 rot/s. The coefficient of friction between the coin and
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

r = 0.02 m

Explanation:

from the question we have :

speed = 1 rps = 1x 60 = 60 rpm

coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.1

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

maximum distance without falling off (r) = ?

to get how far from the center of the disk the coin can be placed without having to slip off we equate the formula for the centrifugal force with the frictional force on the turntable force

mv^2 / r =  m x g x μ

v^2 / r =  g x μ  .......equation 1

where

velocity (v) = angular speed (rads/seconds) x radius

angular speed (rads/seconds) = (\frac{2π}{60} ) x rpm

angular speed (rads/seconds) = (\frac{2 x π}{60} ) x 60 = 6.28 rads/ seconds

now

velocity = 6.28 x r = 6.28 r

now substituting the value of velocity into equation 1

v^2 / r =  g x μ

(6.28r)^2 / r = 9.8 x 0.1

39.5 x r = 0.98

r = 0.02 m

An exoplanet with one half of Earth's mass and 50% of Earth's radius is discovered.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

The space cadet that weighs 800 N on Earth will weigh 1,600 N on the exoplanet

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the exoplanet = 1/2×The mass of the Earth, M = 1/2 × M

The radius of the exoplanet = 50% of the radius of the Earth = 1/2 × The Earth's radius, R = 50/100 × R = 1/2 × R

The weight of the cadet on Earth = 800 N

The \ weight, W  =G\dfrac{M \times m}{R^{2}} = 800 \ N

Therefore, for the weight of the cadet on the exoplanet, W₁, we have;

W_1   =G\dfrac{\dfrac{M}{2}  \times m}{ \left ( \dfrac{R}{2} \right ) ^{2}} = G\dfrac{\dfrac{M}{2}  \times m \times 4}{ R ^{2}} = 2 \times G \times  \dfrac{M \times m}{R^{2}} = 2 \times 800 \, N = 1,600 \, N

The weight of a space cadet on the exoplanet, that weighs 800 N on Earth = 1,600 N.
