Answer:

So instantaneous velocity after 9 sec will be 88.2 m/sec              

Explanation:

We have given time t = 9 sec

As the object is released from rest so its initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

We have to find its final velocity v

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

From first equation of motion we know that v=u+gt

v=0+9.8\times 9=88.2m/sec

So instantaneous velocity after 9 sec will be 88.2 m/sec

In the ENGR 10 lab (E391), there are 50 long light bulbs (P=100 W) and 30 regular bulbs (P=60 W). How much energy is consumed li
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Total energy saving will be 0.8 KWH

Explanation:

We have given there are 50 long light bulbs of power 100 W so total power of 50 bulb = 100×50 = 5000 W = 5 KW

30 bulbs are of power 60 W

So total power of 30 bulbs = 30×60 = 1800 W = 1.8 KW

Total power of 80 bulbs = 1.8+5 = 6.8 KW

Total time = 3 hour

We know that energy E=power\times time=6.8\times 3=20.4KWH

Now power of each CFL bulb = 25 W

So power of 80 bulbs = 80×25 = 2000 W = 2 KW

Energy of 80 bulbs = 2×3 = 6 KWH

So total energy saving = 6.8-6 = 0.8 KWH

Schach [20]
Velocity = (displacement) / (time)

Displacement = straight-line distance between start-point and end-point

If you stop at the same point you started from, then
your displacement for the trip is zero, and your average
velocity is also zero.

A physics student with too much free time drops a watermelon from a roof of a building, hears the sound of the watermelon going
tatiyna

Answer:

28.6260196842 m

Explanation:

Let h be the height of the building

t = Time taken by the watermelon to fall to the ground

Time taken to hear the sound is 2.5 seconds

Time taken by the sound to travel the height of the cliff = 2.5-t

Speed of sound in air = 340 m/s

For the watermelon falling

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow h=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2

For the sound

Distance = Speed × Time

\text{Distance}=340\times (2.5-t)

Here, distance traveled by the stone and sound is equal

\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2=340\times (2.5-t)\\\Rightarrow 4.905t^2=340\times (2.5-t)\\\Rightarrow t^2=\frac{340}{4.905}(2.5-t)\\\Rightarrow t^2+69.3170234455t-173.292558614=0

t=\frac{-69.31702\dots +\sqrt{69.31702\dots ^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-173.29255\dots \right)}}{2\cdot \:1},\:t=\frac{-69.31702\dots -\sqrt{69.31702\dots ^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-173.29255\dots \right)}}{2\cdot \:1}\\\Rightarrow t=2.4158\ s\ or\ -71\ seconds

The time taken to fall down is 2.4158 seconds

h=\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 2.4158^2=28.6260196842\ m

Height of the buidling is 28.6260196842 m
