In this problem, we are given that a ball is thrown upward and that it has an initial velocity of 5 m/s. Its path both on Earth and on the moon will be trajectory in nature. This is because while its horizontal velocity is maintained, its vertical velocity increases.

Answer:

The ball on the moon would have a more straight path than on the Earth, and it would have a longer range

Explanation:

In both cases, the motion of the ball is the motion of a projectile, which has a parabolic trajectory. In fact, the path is the resultant of two indipendent motions:

- A horizontal uniform motion, with constant horizontal velocity 5 m/s

- An accelerated vertical motion, with constant acceleration downward equal to the gravitational acceleration of the planet

On the Moon, the value of the gravitational acceleration is about 1/6 that of the Earth. This means that the downward acceleration of the ball on the Moon is smaller than on the Earth: so, the ball will take more time to reach the ground on the Moon, and so it will have a longer range, and a more straight trajectory.

In which case would electrical potential energy be built up and stored in the electric field? a) A positive charge is moved towa
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

Although, it is common knowledge that in an electric field, unlike charges attract and like charges repel. However, to build up an electric potential, a positive charge is brought close to another positive charge - this causes work done to be changed to electric potential energy and stored in the electric field.

It should however be noted that when a negative charge is moved away from a positive charge, the negative charge gains electric potential energy.

A rocket achieves a lift-off velocity of 500.0 m/s from rest in 30.0 seconds. Calculate the average acceleration of the rocket.
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The average acceleration is 16.6 m/s² ⇒ 1st answer

Explanation:

A rocket achieves a lift-off velocity of 500.0 m/s from rest in

30.0 seconds

The given is:

→ The initial velocity = 0

→ The final velocity = 500 meters per seconds

→ The time is 30 seconds

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of the rocket

→ a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where a is the acceleration, v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity

and t is the time

→ u = 0 , v = 500 m/s , t = 30 s

Substitute these values in the rule

→ a=\frac{500-0}{30}=\frac{500}{30}=16.6 m/s²

<em>The average acceleration is 16.6 m/s²</em>
