Paula has gone 1 km east as the total displacement. The total distance would be 7 km. Why? Well, the difference between displacement and distance is displacement is directional which is why it’s included in velocity and not speed. However, distance is more broad and not as specific.
The height of the roof is <u>3.57m</u>
Let the drops fall at a rate of 1 drop per t seconds. The first drop takes 5t seconds to reach the ground. The second drop takes 4t seconds to reach the bottom of the 1.00 m window, while the 3rd drop takes 3t s to reach the top of the window.
Calculate the distances traveled by the second and the third drops s₂ and s₃, which start from rest from the roof of the building.
The length of the window s is given by,
The first drop is at the bottom and it takes 5t seconds to reach down.
The height of the roof h is the distance traveled by the first drop and is given by,
the height of the roof is 3.57 m
Answer:
-2.5m/s²
Explanation:
The acceleration of a body is giving by the rate of change of the body's velocity. It is given by
a = Δv / t ----------------(i)
Where;
a = acceleration (measured in m/s²)
Δv = change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity (measure in m/s)
t = time taken for the change (measured in seconds(s))
From the question;
i. initial velocity = 5m/s
final velocity = 0 [since the body (ball) comes to rest]
Δv = 0 - 5 = -5m/s
ii. time taken = t = 2s
<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>
a = (-5m/s) / (2s)
a = -2.5m/s²
Therefore, the acceleration of the ball is -2.5m/s²
NB: The negative sign shows that the ball was actually decelerating.
Answer:
Both are only physical changes
Explanation:
A physical change is a change that does not involve or alter the chemical composition of the substances involved. Physical changes form no new substance and can be easily separated into individual constituents. Example of physical changes are change in state, boiling, melting etc.
According to this question, two processes were given as follows:
1. mixing chocolate syrup into milk
2. rain forming in a cloud
These two processes are similar in the sense that they are both examples of physical changes.
Answer:
4.245s
Explanation:
Given that,
Hypothetical value of speed of light in a vacuum is 18 m/s
Speed of the car, 14 m/s
Time given is 6.76 s, and we're asked to find the observed time, T
The relationship between the two times can be given as
T = t / √[1 - (v²/c²)]
The missing variable were looking for is t, and we can find it if we rearrange the formula and make t the subject
t = T / √[1 - (v²/c²)]
And now, we substitute the values and insert into the equation
t = 6.76 * √[1 - (14²/18²)]
t = 6.76 * √[1 - (196/324)]
t = 6.76 * √(1 - 0.605)
t = 6.76 * √0.395
t = 6.76 * 0.628
t = 4.245 s
Therefore, the time the driver measures for the trip is 4.245s
