The height from which the glasses fell is s = 23.72 m and the impact speed is v = 21.56 m/s². Explanation: Using the time taken to hit the ground (t) = 2.2 seconds, we can apply the formula s = u t + 0.5 g t² with initial velocity u = 0 m/s and g = 9.8 m/s²: s = 0 + 0.5 × 9.8 × 2.2², resulting in s = 23.72 m. For the impact velocity, we use the equation v = √(2gh), yielding v = √(2 × 9.8 × 23.72) = √464.912, leading to v = 21.56 m/s².

A girl drops a pebble from a high cliff into a lake far below. She sees the splash of the pebble hitting the water 2.00s later.
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

19.62 ms

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 2 s

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² (we take downward direction as positive)

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+9.81\times 2\\\Rightarrow v=19.62\ m/sUsing the equations of motion

The pebble's speed upon contact with the water is 19.62 ms

Suppose Sammy Sosa hits a home run which travels 361. ft (110. m). Leaving the bat at 50 degrees above the horizontal, how high
Yuliya22 [3333]

Response:

The horizontal span of Sosa is 276.526 ft or 84.28 meters.

Explanation:

As illustrated in the diagram, let point O denote Sosa's starting position. She travels 361 ft at a 50-degree angle relative to the horizontal.

sin 50 = \frac{OM}{OP}

0.7660 = h / 361

h = 276.526 ft

h = 84.28 meters

The horizontal distance of Sosa is 276.526 ft or 84.28 meters.

A wildlife researcher is tracking a flock of geese. The geese fly 4.0 km due west, then turn toward the north by 40° and fly ano
serg [3582]

Answer:

(a). The distance traveled is 7.06 km towards the west.

(b). Their displacement magnitude is 7.51 km.

Explanation:

The information given states that,

The geese initially move 4.0 km directly west, then alter course to the north at a 40° angle, covering an additional 4.0 km.

Based on the diagram,

(a). To determine the distance

We will apply the distance formula

AD=AB+BD

Insert the values into the equation

D= 4+4.0\cos40^{\circ}

D=7.06\ km

The resultant distance is 7.06 km westward.

(b). We will find the total displacement's magnitude

Using the displacement formula

AC=\sqrt{(CD)^2+(AD)^2}

Insert the values into the equation

AC=\sqrt{(4.0\sin40)^2+(7.06)^2}

AC=7.51

The total displacement magnitude is 7.51 km.

In conclusion, (a). The traveled distance is 7.06 km towards the west.

(b). The magnitude of their total displacement is 7.51 km.

How do electromagnetism and gravitation differ from the strong and weak nuclear forces?
ValentinkaMS [3465]
Electromagnetism, which deals with interactions between charged particles, has a considerable range and can create forces that repel like charges while attracting opposites. In contrast, the weak nuclear force is very short-ranged and isn't classified as a force.

The density of nuclear matter is about 1018 kg/m3. Given that 1 mL is equal in volume to 1 cm3, what is the density of nuclear m
Sav [3153]

Answer:

The density comes out to be 10^{6} Mg/µL

Explanation:

Given data:

The density of nuclear matter is approximately 10^{18} kg/m³

1 ml corresponds to 1 cm³

To determine:

The density of nuclear matter in Mg/µL

Solution:

We recognize that:

1 Mg equals 1000 kg

Thus, 1 m³ is equal to 10^{6} cm³

Moreover, 1 cm³ is equivalent to 1 mL

Thus, we can conclude that 1 mL is equal to 10³ µL

With this, we convert the density as follows:

Density = 10^{18} kg/m³

Density = 10^{18} kg/m³ × \frac{10^{-3} }{10^{6} }  Mg/µL

Density = 10^{6} Mg/µL
