There is a lot of glare off of the ice, due to the sun and it also is always good to have eye protection in case you fall face first :P
Convert the given in SI units.
(44 ft/sec)(1 m/ 3.28 ft) = 13.41 m/sec
The distance traveled and the initial velocity can be related through the equation,
d = (Vf)² - (Vi)²/ 2a
where d is the distance, Vf is the final velocity, Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration due to gravity. Substituting the known values from the given above,
d = ((0 m/s)² - (13.41 m/s)²)/ 2(-9.8 m/s²)
The value of d from the equation,
d = 9.17 meters
Convert this to feet,
d = (9.17 m)(3.28 ft / 1 m) = 30 ft
Answer: 30 ft
Answer:
T = 2.83701481512 seconds
Explanation:
Hi!
The formula that you will want to use to solve this question is:
T--> period
L --> length of the pendulum
g --> acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s^2)
since we know that the mass of the bob at the end of the pendulum does not affect the period of the pendulum, we can go ahead and ignore that bit of information (unless, of course, the weight causes the pendulum to stretch)
so now we can plug in our given info into the formula above and solve!
T = 2*pi * sqrt(2/9.8)
T = 2.83701481512 seconds
*Note*
- I used 3.14 to pi, if you need to use a different value for pi (a longer version, etc) your answer will be slightly different
I hope this helped!
I believe the acceleration would be 5m/s
All you would need to do is divide the final speed by the time it took to get there. I am only about 80 sure this answer is correct, so take my advise only if you feel comfortable.
