Gravity D

Obviously, under the influence of gravity, the apple begins to “fall” downwards. We can even see that the speed of the apple, which at each point is given by the change of r divided by the change of t, is zero at the beginning (t=0) and then increases while the apple moves towards the earth

Erica throws a tennis ball against a wall, and it bounces back. Which force is responsible for sending the ball back to Erica? t
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

the normal force that the wall exerts on the ball

Explanation:

As Newton's third law states:

"when an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A".

If we apply this law to this problem, we can identify the ball as object A, and the wall as object B. As the ball hits the wall, the ball exerts a force on the wall (toward the direction of motion of the ball), so the wall exerts an equal and opposite force on the ball (in the opposite direction). This force is the normal force of the wall, and it is responsible for pushing the ball back towards Erica.

Define Velocity with an example​
kolbaska11 [484]

Velocity stands for Displacement w.r.t time

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Velocity=\dfrac{Displacement}{Time}

Or

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto v=\dfrac{ds}{dt}

  • It has units m/s.

How much centripetal force is needed to make a body of mass 0.5kg to move in a circle of radius 50cm with speed 3ms^-1 ?​
scoundrel [369]

Centripetal force is given by F= mv²/r.

Given: m = 0.5 kg, v = 3 m/s, r = 0.5 m

Putting values,

F= mv²/r = 0.5× 3²/0.5 = 9 N

Which of the following statements correctly describes the index of refraction of a material? Select all that apply.
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Option C and D only

Explanation:

Option A is incorrect  because refractive index of a material is the ratio of speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in a any given medium

Option B is correct as the speed of light in vacuum is always greater than the speed of light in any given medium.

Option C is correct

Option D is incorrect

Option E is incorrect because the denser the medium the more is the refractive index. Water is denser than air, hence it should have more refractive index as compared to that of air.
