A kangaroo will stay 0.699s in the air when he jumps.

<h3>What motion does the projectile make?</h3>

A projectile is an object that is launched vertically into the air and moves while being pulled by gravity. A projectile is an object that is launched into the air horizontally and moves regardless of gravity.

<h3>How do you determine the rate of descent?</h3>

G = -9.81 m/s2 is the acceleration of gravity close to the earth. Simply multiply the acceleration of gravity by the period since the object was released to determine the object's speed (or velocity). In other words, velocity is equal to -9.81 m/s2 * time, or V = gt.

<h3>According to the given information:</h3>

From the conversion of energy  =h=\frac{g t^2}{2}

                                                 t = √(2h/g)

                                                   =  √((2 x 2.40) / 9.8)

                                                  =0.699 s

A kangaroo will stay 0.699s in the air when he jumps.

A 6 kilogram block in outer space is moving at -100 m/s (to the left). It suddenly experiences three forces as shown below (in t
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

x = 1474.9 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces must be equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

We must understand that when forces are applied on the body, they tend to slow the body down to stop it.

So as the body continues to move to the left, it is slowing down. Therefore we must calculate this deceleration value using Newton's second law. We must perform a sum of forces on the x-axis equal to the product of mass by acceleration. With leftward movement as negative and rightward forces as positive.

ΣF = m*a

10 +12*sin(60)= - 6*a\\a = - 3.39[m/s^{2}]

Now using the following equation of kinematics, we can calculate the distance of the block, before stopping completely. The initial speed must be 100 [m/s].

v_{f}^{2} =v_{o}^{2}-2*a*x

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0 (the block stops)

Vo = initial velocity = 100 [m/s]

a = - 3.39 [m/s²]

x = displacement [m]

0 = 100^{2}-2*3.39*x\\x=\frac{10000}{2*3.39}\\x=1474.9[m]

A donkey starts from rest and accelerates for 6.7 s at a rate of 1.6 m/s².
vitfil [10]

The maximum speed of the donkey is 10.72m/s

The question is based on the principle of motion in one dimension and hence formulas of motion in one dimension can be applied.

It is given that donkey attains an acceleration of 1.6 m/s^2

The time taken to accelerate  to given speed is 6.7 seconds

We use the formula v=u + at to find the fastest speed

v is the final or maximum speed

u is the initial speed which in this case is 0 as the donkey is at rest

a is the acceleration of the donkey

t is  the time taken in seconds

v = u + at

v= 0 + 1.6 x 6.7

 = 10.72 m/s

Hence the donkey obtains the speed of 10.72 m/s

Why do streets and highways have speed limits rather than velocity limits?
andrew11 [14]

They actually DO have velocity limits. There are legal restrictions on both speed and direction.

-- Speeds are limited according to the black numbers on white signs that you see on sign-posts everywhere.

-- Directions are limited by the layout of the pavement and curbs on all the highways, avenues, roads, boulevards and streets, as well as the countless signs that say "One Way", "No Left Turn", "Keep Right", "Keep Left", etc. Violate one of these, and you get nailed as sure as if you had exceeded a posted speed limit.

A person throws a ball straight up in the air. The ball rises to a maximum height and then falls back down so that the person ca
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The acceleration is about 9.8 m/s2 (down) when the ball is falling.

Explanation:

The ball at maximum height has velocity zero

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² (positive downward and negative upward)

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=u-9.8\times t\\\Rightarrow u=9.8t

The accleration 9.8 m/s² will always be acting on the body in opposite direction when the body is going up and in the same direction when the body is going down. The acceleration on the body will never be zero
