ohemgee474 asked:


the equation h=1/2(-9.8)t^2+2 gives the approximate height, in meters, of an object starting at rest at a height of s meters and falling for t seconds.
(a) If an object was accidentally dropped from the top of the Sears Tower in Chicago, about how long would it take to fall to the ground, approximately 440 meters below?
(b) How far will the object have fallen in five seconds?

i’m stumped. i know you’re supposed to plug in the numbers, but the answers i come up with make no sense.

please help?

 

physics ! i just can not get these problems?

science asked:


i cant get these problems !

Relative to the ground, what is the gravitational potential energy of a 69.0-kg person who is at the top of the Sears Tower, a height of 443 m above the ground?

A 0.050-kg arrow is fired horizontally. The bowstring exerts an average force of 50 N on the arrow over a distance of 0.90 m. With what speed does the arrow leave the bow?

A person is making homemade ice cream. She exerts a force of magnitude 22 N on the free end of the crank handle, and this end moves in a circular path of radius 0.25 m. The force is always applied parallel to the motion of the handle. If the handle is turned once every 1.1 s, what is the average power being expended?

A 2.40 102-kg piano is being lifted at a steady speed from ground level straight up to an apartment 12.0 m above the ground. The crane that is doing the lifting produces a steady power of 4.00 102 W. How much time does it take to lift the piano?

thank you so much !
physics is really hardd :(
