(1) 1s
(2) 2s
(3) 8s
(4) 4s

If the spheres are 196 meters above the ground the time required for the aluminum sphere to reach the ground is 1 1s 2 2s 3 8s 4 4s class=

Respuesta :

2. Two seconds

Both spheres will reach the ground at the same time. 

use the formula t=sqrt(2h/g) = sqrt(2(19.6)/9.8) = 2 seconds

mass does not contribute to fall time, despite having greater potential energy.

Answer:

(2) 2s

Explanation:

Remember that the time that it takes an object to fall from a certain distance is only determined by the force with which the object is pulled towards the center of the earth which is gravity, so any object with 0 velocity will drop at the same rate to the ground when dismissing resistance from the air, in to calculate this you just have to use the next formula:

[tex]H=\frac{g*t^2}{2}\\ t=\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} }[/tex]

So we just insert the data that we have into the formula:

[tex]t=\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} }\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2*19,6}{9,81} }\\t=\sqrt{4}\\ t=2 seconds[/tex]
