48.3 m/s
-68.4 m/s
84.7 m/s
-57.6 m/s
Answer:
a= g = - 9.81 m/s2.
The following equations will be helpful:
a = (vf - vo)/t d = vot + 1/2 at2 vf2 = vo2 + 2ad
When you substitute the specific acceleration due to gravity (g), the equations are as follows:
g = (vf - vo)/t d = vot + 1/2 gt2 vf2 = vo2 + 2gd
If the object is dropped from rest, the initial velocity ("vi") is zero. This further simplifies the equations to these:
g = vf /t d = 1/2 gt2 vf2 = 2gd
The sign convention that we will use for direction is this: "down" is the negative direction. If you are given a velocity such as -5.0 m/s, we will assume that the direction of the velocity vector is down. Also if you are told that an object falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s, you would substitute -5.0 m/s in your equations. The sign convention would also apply to the acceleration due to gravity as shown above. The direction of the acceleration vector is down (-9.81 m/s2) because the gravitational force causing the acceleration is directed downward.

harold threw a baseball 3 meters harold is 2 meters tall. how fast did he throw the ball and how long was it in the air
Answer:
u = 7.74 m/s and t = 1.82 s
Explanation:
Given that,
Harold threw a baseball 3 meters.
Harold is 2 meters tall.
The vertical distance = 3m
The final velocity at the maximum height is 0.
Let u is the initial velocity of the baseball. Using the first equation of motion to find it as follows :
[tex]v^2-u^2=2as[/tex]
Here, a = -g
[tex]v^2-u^2=-2gs\\\\u=\sqrt{2gs} \\\\=\sqrt{2\times 10\times 3} \\\\=7.74\ m/s[/tex]
He has thrown it with the speed of 7.74 m/s
Let t is the time taken by the ball to fall on the ground.
Harold is 2 meters tall. Using second equation of motion to find it.
u = -7.74 (as downward direction is taken as positive)
[tex]s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\2=-7.74t+5t^2\\\\t=1.82\ s[/tex]
Hence, this is the required solution.

Which three characteristics do mechanical waves and electrocmagnetic
waves share?
A. The waves begin with a disturbance.
O B. The waves transfer energy from its source.
C. The waves and their energy move outward from the source.
D. The waves and their energy can travel through empty space.
Answer:
It is A, B, and C
Explanation:
I just took the test!
The three characteristics mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves share are:
A. The waves begin with a disturbance.
B. The waves transfer energy from its source.
C. The waves and their energy move outward from the source.
What are mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves?Usually, waves transfer energy from one place to another. Mechanical waves transfers via matter where as electromagnetic waves transfers via light. Both mechanical waves and electromagnet (light) waves measured through amplitude, wavelength, frequency and both will get transmitted, refracted, reflected, absorbed, diffracted when they react with matter. Both the electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves are transverse in nature but the mechanical waves can also be in longitudinal.
So, many characteristics were similar for mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves.
Hence, Option A, B, C are the three characteristics.

meters high.
143
53
286
573
Answer:
143
Explanation:
Using one of the 3 fundamental equations in physics, y=vo*t+1/2gt^2, we can use this equation to find the total distance that was traveled.
Acceleration due to gravity is always 9.8m/s^2 and time is 5.4s, we also have no initial velocity.
Given this, we can plug in the known variables.
y=0t+1/2*9.8*5^2
simplify,
y=4.9*5.4^2
y=4.9*29.16
y=142.884m which we can round up to 143 meters
Final Answer: 143 meters

A weightlifter completes a series of lifts with a 700 N weight. In one lift, he raises the weight to a height of 2.5 m off the ground. The lift takes 0.60 s to complete. What power does the weightlifter have been performing this lift
Answer:
The output power the weightlifter is 2916.67 W.
Explanation:
Given;
weight lifted, W = 700 N
height the weight is lifted, h = 2.5 m
time taken to lift the weight, t = 0.60 s
The output power the weightlifter is calculated as;
Power = Energy applied / time taken
Energy applied = weight lifted x height the weight is lifted
Energy applied = 700 x 2.5
Energy applied = 1750 J
Power = 1750 / 0.6
Power = 2916.67 J/s = 2916.67 W.
Therefore, the output power the weightlifter is 2916.67 W.
Allison pulls on a refrigerator with 200 N of force. Fred helps
her out and pulls on the refrigerator in the same direction with
300 N of force. What is the net force on the refrigerator?
N
Answer:500
Explanation:
If two forces are acting on an object in the same direction, then they will add up and the net force will be the sum of their magnitudes. Thus, the net force on refrigerator is 500 N.
What is force?Force is an external agent acting on a body to deform it or to change it form the state of rest or motion. There are various kinds of forces, such as gravitational force, frictional force, magnetic force etc.
If two forces are acting on a on an object in the same direction, then they will add up and the net force will be the sum of their magnitudes. If they are acting from the opposite directions, they will cancel each other in magnitude and and the net force will be the subtracted value.
Here, both Allison and fred pulls the refrigerator from the same direction and the net force is the sum of forces by each person. Therefore, the net force here is 300 + 200 = 500 N.

Electric power is to be generated by installing a hydraulic turbine-generator at a site 70 m below the free surface of a large water reservoir that can supply water at a rate of 1500 kg/s steadily. If the mechanical power output of the turbine is 800 kW and the electric power generation is 750 kW, determine the turbine efficiency and the combined turbine–generator efficiency of this plant. Neglect losses in the pipes.
Answer:
[tex]\eta_{turbine} = 0.777 = 77.7\%[/tex]
[tex]\eta_{combined} = 0.728 = 72.8\%[/tex]
Explanation:
First we calculate the power input to the turbine. The input power will be equal to the potential energy of water per unit time:
Input Power = [tex]P_{in} = \frac{Work}{Time} = \frac{Potential\ Energy\ of\ Water}{t} \\P_{in} = \frac{(mass)(g)(height)}{Time} = (mass flow rate)(g)(height)\\\\P_{in} = (1500\ kg/s)(9.81\ m/s^2)(70\ m)\\P_{in} = 1.03\ x\ 10^6\ W = 1030\ KW[/tex]
Now, for turbine efficiency:
[tex]\eta_{turbine} = \frac{Mechanical\ Power\ Out}{P_{in}}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = \frac{800\ KW}{1030\ KW}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = 0.777 = 77.7\%[/tex]
for generator efficiency:
[tex]\eta_{generator} = \frac{Power\ Generation}{Mechanical\ Power\ Out}\\\\ \eta_{generator} = \frac{750\ KW}{800\ KW}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = 0.9375 = 93.75\%[/tex]
Now, for combined efficiency:
[tex]\eta_{combined} = \eta_{turbine}\ \eta_{generator}\\\\\eta_{combined} = (0.777)(0.937)\\\eta_{combined} = 0.728 = 72.8\%[/tex]
A duck is floating in a pond. How does Archimedes' description of the buoyant force explain why the duck
doesn't sink?
PLEASE HURRY
Answer:
The upthrust or buoyant force helps the duck doesn't sink.
For example, there is a duck which weighs 3 pounds and tree pints of water also weigh three pounds. In this case the volume of the duck is more than the volume of three pints of water, so the duck floats.

Should the resistance of an ammeter low or high ?give reason
Answer:
The resistance of an ammeter should be low. This is because an ammeter is connected in series with the circuit for the measurement of electric current. In case, its resistance is high, then some amount of current may lost in heating it leading to the inaccurate reading. An ideal ammeter is one which has zero resistance.
