Answer: 1.301 seconds

Explanation:

Provided values

Initial Velocity(u)=30 m/s

Cliff Height=8.3 m

Time for covering 8.3 m

h=ut+\frac{at^2}{2}

The initial vertical velocity is 0.

8.3=\frac{gt^2}{2}

t^2=1.69

t=1.301 s

Horizontal distance

R=u\times t

R=30\times 1.301=39.04 m

A kangaroo jumps to a vertical height of 2.8 m. How long was it in the air before returning to earth
serg [1198]
The kangaroo reaches a maximum vertical altitude of 2.8 m, which can be calculated using the formula 2.8 = 1/2 * 9.8 * t^2. Thus, applying the equation s = ut + 1/2at^2.

A bus slows down uniformly from 75.0 km/h to 0 km/h in 21 s. How far does it travel before stopping?
Yuliya22 [1153]

1 hour = 3,600 seconds
1 km = 1,000 meters

75 km/hour = (75,000/3,600) m/s = 20-5/6 m/s

The mean speed during the deceleration is

                                   (1/2)(20-5/6 + 0) = 10-5/12 m/s.

Traveling at this average speed for 21 seconds,
the bus covers

                        (10-5/12) × (21) = 218.75 meters.

An object is at rest on the ground. The object experiences a downward gravitational force from Earth. Which of the following pre
Yuliya22 [1153]

Answer:

A) and B) are valid.

Explanation:

When an object remains at rest, it is indicative that no net force acts upon it.

The downward gravitational force from Earth must be counterbalanced by an upward force of equal magnitude in order to maintain rest.

This upward force is provided by the normal force, which adjusts to satisfy Newton’s 2nd Law and is always perpendicular to the surface supporting the object (in this instance, the ground).

At the molecular level, this normal force comes from the ground's bonded molecules acting like tiny springs, compressed by the object’s molecules, providing an upward restorative force.

Thus, statements A) and B) are true.

the minute hand on a clock is 9 cm long and travels through an arc of 252 degrees every 42 minutes. To the nearest tenth of a ce
Ostrovityanka [942]

Answer:

The distance covered by the minutes hand is 39.60 cm.

Explanation:

Note: A clock has a circular shape, where the minutes hand acts as the radius, and its motion creates an arc.

Length of an arc is calculated as ∅/360(2πr)

L = ∅/360(2πr).................... Equation 1π

Here, L represents the arc’s length, ∅ is the angle made by the arc, and r is the arc’s radius.

Given: ∅ = 252°, r = 9 cm, π = 3.143.

Upon substituting these values into equation 1,

L = 252/360(2×3.143×9)

L = 0.7×2×3.143×9

L = 39.60 cm.

Thus, the distance traversed by the minutes hand is 39.60 cm.
