Applying the formula of force equals mass times acceleration, and considering acceleration approximated as g at 10 m/s², the brick possessing the greater mass will hit the ground first due to its superior force that counteracts resistive forces like air resistance.

For a short time the position of a roller-coaster car along its path is defined by the equations r=25 m, θ=(0.3t) rad, and z=(−8
ValentinkaMS [2425]

Answer:

Velocity = v = 2.24 m/s

Acceleration = a = 0.20 m/s²

Explanation:

Refer to the attachment below.

Given

z=(−8 cosθ) and θ = 0.3t

z = -8Cos (0.3t)

V = dz/dt

a = v²/R.

Please see full solution below.

A coin released at rest from the top of a tower hits the ground after falling 1.5 s. What is the speed of the coin as it hits th
Maru [2355]

Starting speed of the coin (u)= 0 (Since it starts from rest)

Gravitational acceleration (a) = g = 9.81 m/s²

Duration of the fall (t) = 1.5 s

According to the motion equation we can state:

\boxed{ \bf{v = u + at}}

Substituting the known values into the equation yields:

\longrightarrow v = 0 + 9.81 × 1.5

\longrightarrow v = 14.715 m/s

\therefore The speed of the coin upon reaching the ground/Final speed of the coin = 14.715 m/s

A current is induced in a conducting loop that lies in a horizontal plane, and the induced current is clockwise when viewed from
Softa [2029]

Answer:

option (c)

Explanation:

The current induced in the coil flows clockwise when viewed from above, hence the induced magnetic field points downwards. According to Lenz's law, the applied magnetic field across the coil is directed downwards and diminishes in strength. As a result, the current induced will circulate in a manner that seeks to enhance the applied magnetic field.
