According to Newton's first law of motion, what happens to the ball is  the ball rolls backward.

<h3>What is the first law?</h3>

This means that an object at rest or in motion will remain uniformly rectilinear and tend to be in that state if the net force on it is zero.

In this case, we have to think that the ball is at rest and the train is moving with a velocity that way, the reaction of the ball will be to go in the opposite direction to the motion.

The boy on the tower throws a ball 20m downrange. What is his pitching speed?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The pitching speed of the ball is 19.7 m/s

Explanation:

  • Here, we can use the third equation of motion,  v^{2} = u^{2} - 2as
  • whereas v represents the final velocity, u represents initial velocity, a is the acceleration due to gravity and s is the displacement or distance an object traveled
  • Here, the initial velocity of the the ball is given as  zero and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8  , the distance 's' is given as 20 m
  • Using the equation,  v^{2} = 2 * 9.8 * 20 = 392\\v = \sqrt{392} = 19.7m/s
  • Hence, the pitching speed of the ball is 19.7 m/s

The two major parts of the optical telescope
nydimaria [60]
The "objective" (lens or mirror) is the major major major part of
the optical telescope.  It's really the only part you need in order
to make a telescope (besides something to hold the objective).
You can put a piece of film or a CCD right at the focal point of
the objective lens or mirror and capture 'images' (pictures) there.

If you want to use the telescope for looking through and seeing stuff
with your eye, then you need the other major part ... the eyepiece lens.

Star temperature is indicated by?
astraxan [27]
A star's temperature is most likely indicated by the color of it. The hotter the star, the bluer it is. The colder the star, the redder it is.

Help mee pleaseee :)))
Anettt [7]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Solving the first image question:

C ) The resulting force is defined by Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of the forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration. That is, there must be a force that acts on a body to produce an acceleration. If there is no acceleration it is because there are no external forces or developed by the body. And if there is no acceleration the body moves at a constant speed, in a straight line, so the response is C.

For the second image, we must remember that weight is defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

W = m*g

where:

W = weight [N]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration [m/s²]

Now we have

m = 50 [kg]

ge = Earth gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s²]

gp = Distant planet gravity acceleration = 4 [m/s²]

We = ge*m

We = 10*50 = 500 [N]

Wp =gp*m

Wp = 4*50 = 200 [N]

Therefore the answer is D

For the third image, The mass is always going to be preserved, regardless of where the body or object is in space, its weight is the only one that changes since the gravitational force is modified. That is, the mass on the moon and on Earth will always be the same.

m = 70 [kg]

First, we must calculate the acceleration, by means of the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f} =v_{o} +a*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 20 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 0 (because stars from the rest)

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 4 [s]

20 = 0 + a*4

20 = 4*a

a = 5 [m/s²]

Now using Newton's second law which tells us that the total force acting on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F = m*a

where:

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 2 [kg]

a = acceleration = 5 [m/s²]

F = 2*5

F = 10 [N]

The body of Figure D, since a total force of 25 [N] to the left acts on it, in the rest of cases the force is zero or much less than 25 [N]

50 + 40 - 35 - 30 = F

F = 25 [N]
