Answer:
Canyon is 50.176 meter deep.
Explanation:
The students is standing on the rim of the canyon and drops down a rock from the rim(cliff). We have to find what is the depth of the canyon i.e. how much below is the ground from the cliff.
Given data:
Time = t = 3.2 s
Initial velocity =
= 0 m/s
Gravitational acceleration = g = 9.8 m/s²
Height = h = ?
According to second equation of motion

As initial velocity is zero, So the first term of right hand side of above equation equal to zero

h = (0.5)(9.8)(3.2)²
h = 50.176 m
This means, the rock traveled 50.176 meters to reach the bottom of the Canyon. So, the Canyon is 50.176 meter deep.
Answer:
The maximum amount of mechanical energy converted to internal energy during the fall is 26.7 joules
Explanation:
Potential Energy (PE) = weight of baseball × height = 1.47N × 10m = 14.7Nm = 14.7 joules
Kinetic Energy (KE) = 12 joules
Maximum amount of mechanical energy converted to internal energy during the fall = PE + KE = 14.7 joules + 12 joules = 26.7 joules
Answer:
99.95%
Explanation:
A double pulsar system named PSR J0737-3039A/B in Puppis constellation was discovered in the year 2003. Pulsars are second most densest object in the universe after black holes and they emit radio waves at regular intervals. This pair presented a great and natural setup to test the Theory of General Relativity presented by Einstein in 1915. In this theory Einstein had presented a set of equations on how the space-time fabric will be curved because of the very dense objects such as Neutron stars. It also predicted how the gravitational waves are created because of stars orbiting each other.
A team of astrophysicists led by Michael Kramer, conducted a study on how these gravitational waves will impact the time in which the radio waves emitted by pulsars will reach Earth. The result of the study proved the theory of General Relativity to be accurate up to 99.95%.
Answer:
3.6 m
Explanation:
let x = horizontal distance between emily and allison should be for allison to catch the ball
Find horizontal speed of the ball
vx = 12 sin 30 = 12 x 0.5 = 6 m/s
To find time taken, we will use vertical values of the ball motion
Initial velocity in vertical direction
u = 12 cos 30 = 10.392 m/s
let a = g = 9.8m/s2
Use equation of motion
s = ut +1/2at^2
s = vertical distance = 8
8 = (10.392)t + (1/2)(9.8)t^2
8 = (10.392)t + (4.9)t^2
4.9t^2 + 10.392t - 8 = 0
Using formula of quadratic or calculator, we'll find
t = 0.6 and t = -2.72
We pick t=0.6s since it's not logical time in negative
Assuming no air resistance or external forces, the ball will move 6m/s horizontally. Hence using the formula of speed
speed vx = distance x / time
x = (vx)(t)
= 6 x 0.6
= 3.6 m
Im guessing it's (a) since the numbers go in chronological order and you read the periodic table left to right
