The word "dropped" means that the bag is in free fall and that its initial velocity is zero. In a free-falling body, the value of the final velocity is obtained through the equation,
                                            Vf = gt
where g is the acceleration due to gravity, 9.8 m/s².
Substituting,
                                            Vf = (9.8 m/s²)(2 s) = 19.6 m/s
Therefore, the bag's velocity is 19.6 m/s.

elena55 [62]

Answer:

Answer:

15.67 seconds

Explanation:

Using first equation of Motion

Final Velocity= Initial Velocity + (Acceleration * Time)  

v= u + at

v=3

u=50

a= - 4 (negative acceleration or deceleration)  

3= 50 +( -4 * t)

-47/-4 = t

Time = 15.67 seconds

The two hot-air balloons in the drawing are 48.2m and 61.0 m above the ground.A person in the left balloon observes that the rig
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The horizontal distance x between the two balloons is 54.15 m

Explanation:

The diagram described as obtained online is presented in the image attached to this solution.

Let the horizontal distance between the two balloons be x

Difference in height (vertical distance) between the two balloons = 61 - 48.2 = 12.8 m

Using trigonometric relations, it is evident that

Tan 13.3° = 12.8/x

x = 12.8/tan 13.3° = 12.8/0.2364 = 54.15 m

What volume in milliliters will 0.00922 g of h2 gas occupy at stp?
Nadusha1986 [10]
Assuming that this gas is in ideal state, we can use the relation that for every 1 mol of an ideal gas it would have a volume of 22.4 L. But before using this, relation we need to convert the number of grams of H2 into moles by using the molar mass of 2.02 g/mol.

moles H2 = 0.00922 g ( 1 mol / 2.02 g ) = 0.005 mol H2

Volume H2 at STP = 0.005 mol H2 ( 22.4 L / 1 mol ) = 0.102 L of H2

Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.4 kg gibbon
Katarina [22]

Answer:

upward force acting = 261.6 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of gibbon = 9.4 kg

arm length = 0.6 m

speed of the swing

net force must provide

F_{branch} + F_{gravity}=F_{centripetal}

force of gravity = - mg

F_{branch}=F_{centripetal}-F_{gravity}

                        = \dfrac{mv^2}{r} + mg

                        = m(\dfrac{3.4^2}{0.6} +9.8)

                        =9 x 29.067

                        = 261.6 N

upward force acting = 261.6 N

A block is projected with speed v across a horizontal surface and slides to a stop due to friction. The same block is then proje
natka813 [3]

Answer: C. The case on the inclined surface had the least decrease intotal mechanical energy.

Explanation:

First and foremost, it should be noted that the mechanical energy is the addition of the potential and the kinetic energy.

From the information given, it should be known that when the block is projected with the same speed v up an incline where is slides to a stop due to friction, the box will lose its kinetic energy but there'll be na increase in the potential energy as a result of the veritcal height. This then brings about an increase in the mechanical energy.

Therefore, the total mechanical energy of the block will decrease the least when the case on the inclined surface had the least decrease intotal mechanical energy.
