Q3. You throw a ball into the air, it reaches a certain height and then comes back to you.

1 answer:

5 0

The If a car is going round a curve , there is an acceleration because the direction of the velocity changes.

<h3>What is the direction of the velocity?</h3>

Now we know that if you throw the ball upwards, the motion is in opposite direction to gravity thus the ball is experiencing deceleration and the speed decreases. The velocity decreases and the acceleration is negative.

If the ball is coming down, then the ball is accelerated thus it speeds up and the direction of the acceleration is positive.

If a car is going round a curve, the vehicle is accelerating because the direction of the velocity changes even if its amount remains constant.

When a board is moving down a hill at 2 ms-1, it is experiencing an acceleration because the motion is in the same direction as gravity.

If a car is coming to a stop at a point, it experiences a deceleration and not an acceleration since the change of velocity with time is negative as the car comes to rest.

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change for which characteristic?

Alenkasestr [34]

1) C. velocity

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity per unit time. In formulas:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta v$ is the change in velocity

$\Delta t$ is the time interval

Therefore, the correct answer is C. velocity.

2) A. 9.8m/s/s

Earth's gravity is a force, so it produces an acceleration on every object with mass located on the Earth's surface. This acceleration can be calculated, as it is given by the formula

$g=\frac{GM}{r^2}$

where

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}$ is the gravitational constant

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ is the Earth's mass

$r=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ is the Earth's radius

By substituting these numbers into the formula, one can find that the acceleration due to Earth's gravity is $g=9.81 m/s^2$ .

You leave your home at 1pm. At 3pm, you are 100 km east of your house. What was your average velocity in km/hr

Rasek [7]

Answer:

50km/h

Explanation:

Average velocity = change in distance (or distance travelled) divided by/ the change in time (or time taken.)

The change in distance has been given as 100km.

The change in time is 3pm-1pm = 2 hours.

Therefore the average velocity was 100/2 = 50km/h (to the east).

Hope this helped!

A mass is bobbing up and down on a spring. If you increase the amplitude of the motion, how does this affect the time for one os

NikAS [45]

Answer:

It will not change

Explanation:

The period of oscillation of a mass-spring system is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

where

T is the period

m is the mass hanging on the spring

k is the spring constant

As we see from the formula, the period of oscillation does not depend on the amplitude of the motion: therefore, if we change the amplitude, the time for one oscillation will not change.

Blown balloon kept outside on a sunny day bursts what will happen to the ballon

Advocard [28]

When the balloon is kept in the sun, due to Sun's heat, the kinetic energy of gaseous particles inside the balloons also gets increased and the balloon expands. This will increase the pressure on the walls of the balloon. It continues to expand and comes to a stage when the baloon bursts.
