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.

A proton moves from a location where V = 87 V to a spot where V = -40 V. (a) What is the change in the proton's kinetic energy?
Art [367]

Answer: a) 127 eV; b) there is no change of kinetic energy.

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the change of potentail energy ( conservative field) is equal to changes in kinetic energy. So for the proton ther move to lower potential then they gain kinetic energy from the electric field.  This means the electric force do work in this trayectory and then the protons increased changes its speed.

If we replace the proton by a electron we have a very different situaction, the electrons are located in a lower potental then  they can not move to higher potential  if any  external force does work on the system.

In resumem, the electrons do not move from a point with V=87 to other point with V=-40 V. The electric force point to high potential so the electrons  can not move to lower potential region (V=-40V).

An object accelerating at 16 m/s/s doubles its mass and triples its net force acting on it. What will the new acceleration be? (
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

24 m/s²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial acceleration of the object, a = 16 m/s²

Let 'm' represent the initial mass of the object

The initial force acting on the object, F = m × a

∴ F = 16 × m = 16·m

When the mass is doubled, we have;

The new mass of the object, m₂ = 2 × m = 2·m

When the net force acting on the object triples, we have;

The new net force acting on the object, F₂ = 3 × F = 3 × 16·m = 48·m

From F = m × a, we have;

a = F/m

∴ The new acceleration of the object, a₂ = F₂/m₂

From which, by plugging in the values, we have;

a₂ = 48·m/(2·m) = 24

The new acceleration of the object, a₂ = 24 m/s².
