1.a bag is dropped from a hovering helicopter. the bag has fallen for 2 s. what is the ball's velocity at the instant its hitting the ground? what was the height of the helicopter? if the bag was dropped from a helicopter descending at the speed of 2 m/s what is the time of the bag fall and its velocity near the ground?

1. The bag's velocity immediately before hitting the ground.

Recall this kinematics equation:

Vf = Vi + aΔt

Vf is the final velocity, Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and Δt is the time elapsed.

Given values:

Vi = 0m/s (you assume this because the bag is dropped, so it falls starting from rest)

a is 9.81m/s² (this is the near-constant acceleration of objects near the surface of the earth)

Δt = 2s

Plug in the values and solve for Vf:

Vf = 0 + 9.81×2

Vf = 19.62m/s

2. The height of the helicopter.

Recall this other kinematics equation:

d = ViΔt + 0.5aΔt²

d is the distance traveled by the object, Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and Δt is the time elapsed.

Given values:

Vi = 0m/s (bag is dropped starting from rest)

a = 9.81m/s² (acceleration due to gravity of the earth)

Δt = 2s

Plug in the values and solve for d:

d = 0×2 + 0.5×9.81×2²

d = 19.62m

3. Time of the bag's fall and its velocity immediately before hitting the ground... if it started falling at 2m/s

Reuse the equation from question 2:

d = ViΔt + 0.5aΔt²

Given values:

d = 19.6m (height of the helicopter obtained from question 2)

Vi = 2m/s

a = 9.81m/s² (acceleration due to earth's gravity)

Plug in the values and solve for Δt:

19.6 = 2Δt + 0.5×9.81Δt²

4.91Δt² + 2Δt - 19.6 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to get values of Δt (a quick Google search will give you the formula and how to use it to solve for unknown values):

Δt = 1.8s, Δt = −2.2s

The formula gives us 2 possible answers for Δt but within the situation of our problem, only the positive value makes sense. Reject the negative value.

Δt = 1.8s

Now we can use this new value of Δt to get the velocity before hitting the ground:

Vf = Vi + aΔt

Given values:

Vi = 2m/s

a = 9.81m/s²

Δt = 1.8s (result from previous question)

Plug in the values and solve for Vf:

Vf = 2 + 9.81×1.8

Vf = 19.66m/s

Thomas his older brothers, who own a junk yard, on the weekends to earn extra money. he likes to them push broken-down cars to the back of the junk yard because it makes him feel strong. last saturday, they pushed three cars with different weights, and he noticed he used different amounts of force for each one. the cars were the following weights: white car: 2,700 kg red car: 1,500 kg blue car: 2,100 kg think about how much force is needed to move each car. which correctly lists the cars in order from the most to least amount of force needed to move them? a) white, blue, red b) blue, red, white c) red, white, blue d) white, red, blue

Materials will have different energies associated with the electrons inside them. this is related to how strongly bound they are by their work function. if we sandwich a material with a very low energy between two materials with a high energy, we create a trap for an electron. if this trap is very narrow in one direction in comparison to the others, this is approximately a 1-dimensional box that confines the electron. what is the lowest energy of an electron in the box if the thinnest direction across the materials is 4.81 nm?
