To solve this problem, we make use of the equations of motion:

vf^2 = v0^2 – 2 g h

vf = v0 – g t

h = v0 t – 0.5 g t^2

A. Finding for max height:

Max height occurs when vf = 0, therefore:

0^2 = 25^2 – 2 (9.8) h

h = 31.89 m

B. Finding for t:

t = t(up) + t(down)

vf = v0 – g t(up)

0 = 25 – 9.8 t(up)

t(up) = 2.55 s

h = v0 t(down) – 0.5 g t(down)^2

31.89 = 0.5 (9.8) t(down)^2

t(down)^2 = 6.51

t(down) = 2.55 s

so,

t = 5.1 s

How do you know the earth is rotating on its axis

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Read below!

Explanation:

You can watch the sun wheel across the sky during the day, and the stars at night. Focus a telescope on any star besides the north star--especially southern stars--and you can watch them drift across your field of view.

An alternative explanation is that all the stars are painted on (or holes in) some canopy that rotates around the earth. This explanation does not account for the motion of the "wanderers," or planets, as the Greeks called them, or for the path of the moon among the stars.

As we know the stars are massive bodies of significant and varying distance to the earth, the notion they all swing around us in unison seems highly implausible

A compact car, mass 660 kg, is moving at 1.00 ✕ 102 km/h toward the east. The driver of the compact car suddenly applies the bra

Maslowich

Answer: $59.43\times 10^3 kg-m/s$

Explanation:

Given

mass of car $m=660 kg$

Initial velocity of car $=102 km/h\approx 28.33 m/s$ towards east

Time taken to stop $t=2.1 s$

Force exerted $F_{avg}=4.8\times 10^3 N$

change in momentum is given by impulse imparted to the car

$Impulse(J)=-F\cdot t$

$J=-4.8\times 10^3\times 2.1$

$J=-59.49\times 10^3 kg-m/s$

negative Sign indicates that impulse is imparted opposite to the direction of motion

magnitude of momentum $J=59.49\times 10^3$

A 12,000kg. railroad car is traveling at +2m/s when it

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The final velocity of the two railroad cars is 1.09 m/s

Explanation:

Since we are given that the two cars lock together it shows that the collision is inelastic in nature. The final velocity due to inelastic collision is given by

$\mathrm{V}=\frac{V 1 M 1+V 2 M 2}{M 1+M 2}$

where

V= Final velocity

M1= mass of the first object in kgs = 12000

M2= mas of the second object in kgs = 10000

V1= initial velocity of the first object in m/s = 2m/s

V2= initial velocity of the second object in m/s = 0 (given at rest)

Substituting the given values in the formula we get

V = 2×12000 + 0x100012000 + 10000= 2400022000= 1.09 m/s

$\mathrm{V}=\frac{2 \times 1200+0 \times 1000}{12000+10000}=\frac{24000}{22000}=1.09 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

Which is the final velocity of the two railroad cars
