Un objeto se suelta desde determinada altura y emplea un tiempo t en caer al suelo. si se cuadruplica la altura desde la cual se suelta, determina:

a-si el tiempo al caer se duplica

b-si el tiempo en caer se cuadruplica

c-si la velocidad al caer se cuadruplica

d-si la velocidad al caer se reduce a la mitad

When an object falls from a h height, you should work with the uniformly accelerated linear movement equations:

y=½*a*t²+Vo*t+yo

You should consider:

a=-g=-10m/s²

yo=h

If it’s a freefall, it means it starts from rest, which means it has no initial velocity:

Vo=0

Replacing that information in the equation:

y=½*(-10m/s²)*t²+0*t+h=-5m/s²*t²+0+h=-5m/s²*t²+h

So this is the

Besides, if you want to find out how long it takes for it to get to the floor, you should put the height of the floor as final height, which would be 0 (assuming the initial height has been measured from there):

y=0

0=-5m/s²*t²+h

5m/s²*t²=h

t²=h/(5m/s²)

t=√(h/(5m/s²))

t=√(hs²/(5m))

t=(√(h/(5m)))s

t2=(√(h2/(5m)))s=(√(4*h1/(5m)))s=(√4)*(√h1/(5m)))s=2*(√h1/(5m)))s=2*t1

This 4 goes inside the square root, so then it converts to 2. So the new time is twice as much the previous time.

Concerning velocity, you have to use the other equation:

v=at+vo

As I said before, a is gravity and vo is zero.

v=-10m/s²*t+0=-10m/s²*t

Final velocity is directly related to time, so if time is doubled, so is velocity.

v2=-10m/s²*t2=-10m/s²*(2*t1)=2*(-10m/s²*t1)=2*v1

So the correct answer is A, and the other ones are false.

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
