A bathroom scales works due to gravity. Under normal
conditions, a reading can be obtained when your body is pushing some force on
the scale. However in this case, since you and the scale are both moving
downwards, so your body is no longer pushing on the scale. Therefore the answer
is:
<span>The reading will drop to 0 instantly</span>
Answer:
Terminal velocity of object = 12.58 m/s
Explanation:
We know that the terminal velocity is attained when drag force and gravitational force are of the same magnitude.
Gravitational force = mg = 80 * 9.8 = 784 N
Drag force = 
Equating both, we have

So v = 12.58 m/s or v = -15.58 m/s ( not possible)
So terminal velocity of object = 12.58 m/s
Answer:
Explanation:
18 kW = 18000 J /s
60% of 18kW = 10800 J/s
Latent heat of evaporation of water
= 2260 x 10³ J / kg
kg of water being evaporated per second
= 10800 / 2260 x 10³ kg /s
= 4.7787 x 10⁻³ kg / s
= 4.78 gm / s .
Answer:
ball clears the net
Explanation:
= initial speed of launch of the ball = 20 ms^{-1}
= angle of launch = 5 deg
Consider the motion of the ball along the horizontal direction
= initial velocity = 
= time of travel
= horizontal displacement of the ball to reach the net = 7 m
Since there is no acceleration along the horizontal direction, we have
Eq-1
Consider the motion of the ball along the vertical direction
= initial velocity = 
= time of travel
= Initial position of the ball at the time of launch = 2 m
= Final position of the ball at time "t"
= acceleration in down direction = - 9.8 ms⁻²
Along the vertical direction , position at any time is given as

Since Y > 1 m
hence the ball clears the net
Answer:
The acceleration of the rocket is 10 m/s².
Explanation:
Let the acceleration of the rocket be
m/s².
Given:
Mass of the rocket is, 
Thrust force acting upward is, 
Acceleration due to gravity is, 
Now, force acting in the downward direction is due to the weight of the rocket and is given as:

Now, net force acting on the rocket in upward direction is given as:

Therefore, from Newton's second law, net force acting on the rocket is equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

Therefore, the acceleration of the rocket is 10 m/s².
