The released last seconds of the fall of a body of the road 3 / 4 of fame is. According to this time how many seconds of falling down? please solve this so quickly . . . (in 3 minutes)

can some body solve this quickly come on i need to help
 
1) Your question makes no sense. You might consider explaining it more clearly.
2) We don't give people answers to their homework - we're happy to help, but you need to show some effort and understanding.
 
an object left to free fall, take the 3/4 of the road in last second of the fall. what is the total falling time ?
 
3/4 of the road? What road?

I assume you mean that it covers 3/4 of the distance fallen in the last second.

In any case: Use the homework forums for such questions. And show what you've done so far.
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
