The equation of the graph is
Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .
The graph is a straight line that passes through the origin,
and its slope is the mass of the object being studied.
1 gallon = 231 cubic inches
1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches
(55 gal) x (231 in³/gal) x (1 ft³/1728 in³)
= (55 x 231 / 1728) ft³
= 7.352 cubic feet (rounded)
Answer:
Explanation:
We have the following data:
- distance covered by the child: d = 2 m (length of the slide)
- time taken to cover this distance: t = 3 s
- initial velocity of the child: 0 m/s (he starts from rest)
So we can find the acceleration by using the equation:
Where a is the acceleration.
Substituting the values and solving for a,
For help with this answer, we look to Newton's second law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Since the question seems to focus on acceleration, let's get
'acceleration' all alone on one side of the equation, so we can
really see what's going on.
Here's the equation again:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Divide each side by 'mass',
and we have: Acceleration = (force) / (mass) .
Now the answer jumps out at us: The rate of acceleration of an object
is determined by the object's mass and by the strength of the net force
acting on the object.
Answer:
Option 5. 1 and 3
Solution:
The only forces acting on the tennis ball after it has left contact with the racquet and the instant before it touches the ground are the force of gravity in the downward direction and the force by the air exerted on the ball.
The ball after it left follows the path of trajectory and as it moves forward in the horizontal direction the force of the air acts on it.
In the whole projectile motion of the ball, the acceleration due to gravity acts on the ball thus the force of gravity acts on the ball in the downward direction before it hits the ground.
