If you drop a steel metal ball off a building and it takes 3 seconds to hit
the ground, how tall is the building?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]40\:\mathrm{m}[/tex]

Explanation:

We can use kinematics equation [tex]\Delta y={v_i}^2+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex] to solve this problem. Because the metal ball's initial velocity was 0, [tex]{v_i}^2=0[/tex].

Therefore, our equation becomes:

[tex]\Delta y=\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex] (freefall equation).

[tex]t[/tex] is given as 3 seconds and [tex]a[/tex] is acceleration due to gravity ([tex]9.81\:\mathrm{m/s}[/tex]).

Therefore, our answer is:

[tex]\Delta y = \frac{1}{2}\cdot9.81\cdot3^2=44.145=\fbox{$40\:\mathrm{m}$}[/tex] (one significant figure).

Answer:

Superficial anatomy.

Explanation:

Superficial anatomy can be defined as the physical examination of the external parts of a living organism such as ankle, nose, skin, knee, toes, fingers, cornea etc.

Hence, superficial anatomy is also popularly referred to as surface anatomy.

In this scenario, a patient arrives at an emergency room complaining of pain in her ankle. The nurse examines the patient’s ankle, looking for skin discoloration or swelling. The nurse is relying mostly on his knowledge of superficial anatomy by studying or examining the patient's ankle for any sign of decoration or swelling on the skin.

stopping. While braking, the internal energy of the brakes, wheels, and road
increase by 5836 J. What is the mass of the cyclist?

Answers

To answer this question, you need to recognize that energy is conserved. The initial energy was kinectic and then transferred to internal; therefore, in this problem, (aka final energy) internal energy = kinectic energy (aka initial energy).

Kinectic energy = 0.5 * m * v^2

5836 = 0.5 * m * (13.4)^2
89.78m = 5836
Mass = 65 kgs

A body moving in simple harmonic motion has an amplitude of 10cm and a frequency of 100Hz. Find i.mthe period of oscillation, ii. the acceleration at the maximum displacement, iii. the velocity at the centre of motion​

Answers

Explanation:

= 5 cm = 0.05 m

T = 0.2 s

ω=2π/T=2π/0.2=10πrad/s

When displacement is y, then acceleration, a=−ω2y

4. A toy car travels 60 m during 5.7 s at a constant speed. What is the speed of the toy car?
15.556
13.526
6.116
10.526
None of these is correct.

Answers

Answer: 10.526m/s

Explanation:

The speed of the toy car would be calculated as the distance travelled by the toy card divided by the time taken. This will be:

= Distance travelled / Time taken

= 60/5.7

= 10.526m/s

The speed of the toy car is 10.526 meters per second.

A car starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate of 3.5 m/s2. What is the car’s velocity after the car has traveled 800 m?

Answers

Answer:

Attached is the answer

Explanation:

The car’s velocity after the car has traveled 800 m is 74.83 m/sec.

What is velocity?

When an item is moving, its velocity is the rate at which its direction is changing as seen from a certain point of view and as measured by a specific unit of time.

Using equation of motion, initial velocity u = 0 and acceleration a = 3.5 unit and distance travelled is 800 m.

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0 + 2*3.5*800

v² = 5600

v = 74.83 m/sec

The car’s velocity after the car has traveled 800 m is 74.83 m/sec.

A box weighs 1300 N. When a horizontal force of 390 N has applied the box accelerates at 1.3 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the frictional force?

Answers

Answer:

Ffriction = 217.7[N]

Explanation:

First, we must find the mass of the box, we must remember that the weight is defined as the product of the mass by acceleration.

[tex]w=m*g[/tex]

where:

w = weight [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

[tex]1300=m*9.81\\m=132.51[kg][/tex]

Now we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

∑F sum of forces

m = mass = 132.51[kg]

a = acceleration = 1.3[m/s²]

We must know that the forces that act are the horizontal force that moves the box and the friction force in the negative direction that acts against the movement.

Now replacing:

[tex]390-f_{friction}=132.51*1.3\\390-172.26=f_{friction}\\f_{friction}=217.7[N][/tex]

What can always be said about a negatively-charged ion?
A negatively-charged ion always has more neutrons than protons
A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons
A negatively-charged ion always has more protons than electrons
A negatively-charged ion always has more protons than neutrons

Answers

Answer: A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

Explanation:

First, we know that the elementary negative charge is the electron, while the positive one is the proton. Such that both have the same charge in magnitude, but a different sign. Such that if we have the same number of electrons and protons in an atom, the charge of this atom will be neutral.

And an ion is an atom with a different number of electrons and protons, so the charge of the atom is not neutral.

Then if we have a negatively-charged ion, the charge of this atom is negative. Then we must have a larger number of electrons (the negative ones) than protons (the positive ones)

Then the correct option is:

A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

How does attachment affect exploration? Be sure to include findings from both Harlow and Ainsworth in your response.

Answers

“The monkey became attached to the cloth mother so it developed a sense of security. ... In both Ainsworth and Harlow's studies it goes to show that a child social development is dependent on the attachment of a caregiver or mother.”

Answer:

Attachment can affect many things. When you go back to the experiment, you see that they are testing 4 monkeys. They want to see if they would go to the cloth mother or the wire mother. But that is just the base of the experiment. Once the monkeys pick the mother, they have attached themselves to the mother, because animals will pick what is mother, because once you are born, the "hunger games" begin in the wild. They will stay by their mother's side until they are grown and ready to go on their own. When you think about this whole experiment, you know that this experiment was designed as a test of the relative importance of contact comfort. They could have picked any animal for this, and the outcome would have been very similar because as a baby you need to find things that you trust and that is your mother.

if an object is projected upwards with an angle 30 to the horizontal and its initial velocity is 20 m/s, its maximum height= ? ( consider g= 10m/s^2 )

Answers

Answer:

[tex]h_m=5 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

Projectile Motion

It's the type of motion that experiences an object projected near the Earth's surface and moves along a curved path under the action of gravity.

The maximum height hm is reached when the vertical component of the velocity is 0. It can be calculated as follows:

[tex]\displaystyle h_m=\frac{v_o^2\cdot \sin^2\theta}{2g}[/tex]

Where:

vo = initial speed of the object

θ   = initial launch angle

g   = acceleration of gravity ([tex]10\ m/s^2[/tex])

The object is projected with an angle of θ=30° and an initial speed of vo=20 m/s. The maximum height is:

[tex]\displaystyle h_m=\frac{20^2\cdot \sin^2 30^\circ}{2*10}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle h_m=\frac{400\cdot 0.5^2}{20}[/tex]

Find the work done by a man who is pulling a box of 45kg of mass by means of rope which makes angle of 45 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

0

Explanation:

Since no distance is given, the force is not doing any work

No work is done by the man since we do not know the distance or displacement.

Work is only said to be done when the force applied on an object moves it through a particular distance.

 Work done  = Force x distance.

Since no distance is given in this problem, we can as well assume that the force applied is doing no work on the object.
