Does a free falling object fall 2 meters in twice the time as it falls 1 meter?
a. Yes, it takes twice as long to fall twice as far. b. Yes, it takes longer to fall farther.
c. No, since it is speeding up as it falls it will cover the same distance in a shorter time.
d. No, it takes the same time since it does not accelerate.

Answers

Answer 1

A free-falling object has a consrant force acting on it . . .  the force of gravity, or what technical experts refer to as its "weight".

Since the object has a constant force acting on it, it must constantly accelerate according to Newton's 2nd law of motion. The way this acceleration reveals itself, the object's speed is constantly increasing.

Since the object is speeding up as it falls, there are a few weird things that happen:

 --  It will fall 2 meters in less than double the time for 1 meter.

 --  It will fall 3 meters in less than triple the time for 1 meter.

 --  It will fall 4 meters in less than quadruple the time for 1 meter, and less than double the time for 2 meters.

 --  It will fall 1 meter near the bottom in less time than 1 meter near the top.

None of the choices exactly answers the question.

Choices ' a ' and ' d ' are false statements.

Choice-b is a true statement, but it isn't a "Yes".

Choice-c  is kind of confused, but is probably the one you should select.

A ruler has a division of 1mm. You use the ruler to measure a piece of paper. You find that it is 7.4 cm wide and 8.3 cm long. What is the area of the piece of paper?

Answers

Answer:

6,142mm²

Explanation:

Given the dimension of a paper measured by a ruler as 7.4 cm wide and 8.3 cm long, the area of the paper is expressed using the area for calculating the area of a rectangle as shown;

Area of the piece of paper = Length * Width

Given length = 7.4cm

Length = 74mm (Since 10mm = 1cm)

Width = 8.3cm

Width (in mm) = 83mm

We converted to mm since the ruler used to measure has a division of 1mm.

Substituting the given values into the formula, we will have:

Area of the piece of paper = 74mm * 83mm

Area of the piece of paper = 6,142mm²

Hence, the area of the piece of paper is 6,142mm²

A small metal sphere has a mass of 0.19 gg and a charge of -23.0 nCnC. It is 10.0 cmcm directly above an identical sphere that has the same charge. This lower sphere is fixed and cannot move. If the upper sphere is released, it will begin to fall.What is the magnitude of its initial acceleration?

Answers

Answer:

  a = -7.29 m / s²

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Newton's second law,

          F -W = m a

Force is electrical force

         F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

         k q₁ q₂ / r² -mg = m a

indicate that the charge of the two spheres is equal

         q₁ = q₂ = q

         a = (k q² / r² - m g) / m

         a = k q² / m r² - g

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

        m = 0.19 g (1kg / 1000 g) = 1.9 10⁻⁴ kg

        q1 = q2 = q = -23.0 nC (1C / 10⁹ nC) = -23.0 10⁻⁹ C

        r = 10.0 cm (1m / 100cm) = 0.1000 m

let's calculate

        a = 9 10⁹ (23.0 10⁻⁹)² / (0.1000² 1.9 10⁻⁴) - 9.8

        a = -7.29 m / s²

The negative sign indicates that the direction of this acceleration is downward

A boat that moves with a constant velocity of 12 m/s is moving on a river with a
constant current of 4 m/s. What is the resultant velocity of the boat if:
a) The boat is traveling to the north and the current is to the south?
b) The boat is traveling to the south and the current is to the south?
c) The boat travels to the east, across the current, while the current is to the south.

Answers

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of boat, [tex]v_b=12\ m/s[/tex]

Velocity of current, [tex]v_c=4\ m/s[/tex]

(a) If the boat is traveling to the north and the current is to the south,

[tex]v_b=12j\ m/s[/tex]

[tex]v_c=-4j\ m/s[/tex]

The resultant velocity,

[tex]v_r=12-(4)=8\ m/s[/tex] due North

(b) If boat is traveling to the south and the current is to the south,

[tex]v_b=-12j\ m/s[/tex]

[tex]v_c=-4j\ m/s[/tex]

Resultant velocity,

[tex]v_r=12+4=16\ m/s[/tex] due south

(c) If the boat travels to the east, across the current, while the current is to the south.

So,

[tex]v_r=\sqrt{12^2+4^2}\\ \\v_r=12.64\ m/s[/tex]

Lee is traveling in a train moving at a constant velocity of 35 m/s to the east. If Lee is seated on the train and staring at the seat directly in front of him, how fast does the seat in front of Lee appear to be moving relative to Lee?

Answers

Answer:

0 m/s or stationary

The seat in front of Lee appear to be at rest

Explanation:

When the motion of a person or object is found by comparing the person or objects motion with regards to a stationary object or an object in motion, the result is the relative motion of the person or object to the stationary or moving object

In the question, Lee is comparing the motion of the chair in front of him with regards to the motion of the chair he his sitting on.

The speed of both chairs are the same as the speed of the train in which they are attached.

Therefore, as the seats are fixed relative to each other such that there is no change in their relative position and therefore, no or 0 m/s relative velocity with each other.

A person holding a lunch bag is moving upward in a hot air balloon at a constant speed of 7.7 m/s . When the balloon is 21 m above the ground, she accidentally releases the bag. Part A What is the speed of the bag just before it reaches the ground

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the bag just before it reaches the ground is 21.71 m/s.

Explanation:

The speed of the bag can be found using the following equation:

[tex] v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} - 2gy [/tex]

Where:

[tex]v_{f}[/tex] is the final speed =?

[tex]v_{0}[/tex] is the initial speed = 7.7 m/s

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

y: is the height = 21 m

[tex]v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} - 2gy = (7.7 m/s)^{2} - 2*9.81 m/s^{2}*(-21 m) = 471.31 m^{2}/s^{2}[/tex]

[tex]v_{f} = 21.71 m/s[/tex]

Therefore, the speed of the bag just before it reaches the ground is 21.71 m/s.

How did the atomic theory develop and change

Answers

Explanation:

Early Atomic theory

Although the idea of the atom was first suggested by Democritus in the fourth century BC, his suppositions were not useful in explaining chemical phenomena, because there was no experimental evidence to support them. It was not until the late 1700's that early chemists began to explain chemical behavior in terms of the atom. Joseph Priestly, Antoine Lavoisier, and others set the stage for the foundation of chemistry. They demonstrated that substances could combine to form new materials. It was the English chemist, John Dalton, who put the pieces of the puzzle together and developed an atomic theory in 1803.

Dalton's atomic theory contains five basic assumptions:

All matter consists of tiny particles called atoms. Dalton and others imagined the atoms that composed all matter as tiny, solid spheres in various stages of motion.

Atoms are indestructible and unchangeable. Atoms of an element cannot be created, destroyed, divided into smaller pieces, or transformed into atoms of another element. Dalton based this hypothesis on the law of conservation of mass as stated by Antoine Lavoisier and others around 1785.

Elements are characterized by the weight of their atoms. Dalton suggested that all atoms of the same element have identical weights. Therefore, every single atom of an element such as oxygen is identical to every other oxygen atom. However, atoms of different elements, such as oxygen and mercury, are different from each other.

In chemical reactions, atoms combine in small, whole-number ratios. Experiments that Dalton and others performed indicated that chemical reactions proceed according to atom to atom ratios which were precise and well-defined.

When elements react, their atoms may combine in more than one whole-number ratio. Dalton used this assumption to explain why the ratios of two elements in various compounds, such as oxygen and nitrogen in nitrogen oxides, differed by multiples of each other.

John Dalton's atomic theory was generally accepted because it explained the laws of conservation of mass, definite proportions, multiple proportions, and other observations. Although exceptions to Dalton's theory are now known, his theory has endured reasonably well, with modifications, throughout the years.

Displacement = 20

Direction = westward

Explanation:

Given that a football coach walks 18 meters westward, then 12 meterseastward, then 28 meters westward, and finally 14 meters

eastward.

To calculate the displacement,

Let eastward = negative

Westward = positive

Displacement = 18 - 12 + 28 - 14

Displacement = 46 - 26

displacement = 20 metre

Since the answer is positive, the direction is westward.

An object with a density of 0.85 g/cc is dropped into each of the two beakers shown below. Beaker 1 has a density of 0.5 g/cc. Beaker 2 has a density of 1 g/cc. What will happen to the object in each case?

Answers

Answer:

The object will sink in the liquid in beaker 1.

The object will float in the liquid in beaker 2

Explanation:

The density of an object relative to the density of a fluid determines if the object floats or sink in a fluid. The density of a material is the measure of the amount of mass of that material packed into a unit volume of that material.

For the beaker 1, the liquid in this beaker has a density of 0.5 g/cc, which is lesser than the density of the object (0.85 g/cc). This means that the object will add more mass than there should be to the volume of the space it displaces within the field. This results in the object sinking in the fluid.

For beaker 2, the liquid in this beaker has a density of 1 g/cc, which is more than the density of the object (0.85 g/cc). This means that the object will add less mass than there should be to the volume of the space it displaces within the field. This results in the object floating in the fluid.
