The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)
We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Multiply each side by 2 : 2 D = g t²
Divide each side by ' g ' : 2 D/g = t²
Square root each side: t = √ (2D/g)
Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens
to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:
-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .
-- They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside
the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.
Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value
of gravity on the surface of the Earth.
So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.
It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds
to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the
surface of the Moon.
<u>Answer</u>
3.7 Km south
<u>Explanation</u>
The definition of displacement is the distance traveled in a specific direction. It is the vector quantity. We add displacements like the way we add vectors.
Taking the direction towards North to be positive (+1.7 Km), the distance towards south would be negative (-5.4 Km).
Now lets add the two values.
(+1.7) + (-5.4) = 1.7 - 5.4
= - 3.7 Km But negative was towards south.
∴ Answer = 3.7 Km south.
A wave is a result of the disturbance in the equilibrium state. There are two types of wave, transverse and longitudinal. Transverse wave affects amplitude while longitudinal wave affects the frequency of the wave. As for the transverse wave, the magnitude of the perpendicular disturbance of the wave is directly proportional to the amplitude of the wave. The higher the transverse disturbance the higher the amplitude.
Answer:
B) Gets smaller
Explanation:
The difference of phase between current and voltage in a AC circuit is the phase angle and it depends on the value of Z ( circuit impedance)
Z = R + X where R is the resistive component and X the reactance component, which is due either to a presence of an inductor or a capacitor. In any case the total impedance depends on R the resistive, and the phase angle φ is:
tan⁻¹ φ = X/R
Have a look to a pure capactive circuit (we are talking about AC current) in this case current leads voltage by 90⁰. If we add a resistor in the circuit the current still will lead a voltage but in this condition the phase angle will be smaller,
If R increase, X/R decrease and tan⁻¹ φ also decrease
Answer:
9.43 m/s
Explanation:
First of all, we calculate the final kinetic energy of the car.
According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on the car is equal to its change in kinetic energy:
where
W = -36.733 J is the work done on the car (negative because the car is slowing down, so the work is done in the direction opposite to the motion of the car)
is the final kinetic energy
is the initial kinetic energy
Solving,
Now we can find the final speed of the car by using the formula for kinetic energy
where
m = 661 kg is the mass of the car
v is its final speed
Solving for v, we find
