Denise is conducting a physics experiment to measure the acceleration of a falling object when it slows down and comes to a stop

. She drops a wooden block with a mass od 0.5 kilograms on a sensor on the floor. The sensor measures the force of the impact as 4.9 newtons. Whats the acceleration of the wooden block wgen it hits the sensor

We need a and we have m and F . Now a = f÷m so therefore a = 4,9 ÷ 0,5 which is 0,98 metres per cubic second

Answer:

a = 9.8 m/s^2

Explanation:

As we know that here given parameters are

mass = 0.5 kg

also we know that force of impact on the floor is given as

F = 4.9 N

now we know by the Newton's 2nd law says that the net force on an object is product of mass and its acceleration

it is given by

F = ma

now we have

a = \frac{F}{m}

a = \frac{4.9}{0.5}

a = 9.8 m/s^2

I don't understand what you mean by "depth" of the steps.  The flat part of the step has a front-to-back dimension, and the 'riser' has a height.  I don't care about the horizontal dimension of the step because it doesn't add anything to the climber's potential energy.  And if the riser of each step is 20cm high, then 3,234 of them only take him (3,234 x 0.2) = 646.8 meters up off the ground.  So something is definitely fishy about the steps.

Fortunately, we don't need to worry at all about the steps in order to derive a first approximation to the answer ... one that's certainly good enough for high school Physics.

In order to lift his bulk 828 meters from the street to the top of the Burj, the climber has to provide a force of 800 newtons, and maintain it through a distance of 828 meters.  The work [s]he does is (force) x (distance) = <em>662,400 joules. </em>

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The answer is: c. It does not move

Explanation:

Because the gravitational force is characterized by being an internal force within the Earth-particle system, in this case, the object of mass M. And since in this system there is no external force in the system, it can be concluded that the center of mass of the system will not move.

Answer:

 a)    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m  b)    λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m

Explanation:

The diffraction network is described by the expression

      d sin θ= m λ

Where m corresponds to the diffraction order

Let's use trigonometry to find the breast

        tan θ = y / L

The diffraction spectrum is measured at very small angles, therefore

      tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

We replace

      d y / L = m λ

Let's place in the first order m = 1

Let's look for the separation of the lines (d)

     d = λ  L / y

     d = 501 10⁻⁹ 9.95 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

     d = 332.33 10⁻⁹ m

Now we can look for the wavelength of the other line

     λ  = d y / L

    λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 8.55 10⁻²/15 10⁻²

    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m

Part B

The compound wavelength B

      λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 12.15 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

      λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m
