A rock (m= 2kg) is shot up vertically at the same time that a ball (m= 0.5kg) is projected horizontally. If both start from the

same height: A. the rock and ball will reach the ground at the same time.
B. the rock will reach the ground first.
C. the ball will reach the ground first.
D. the rock and ball will collide in the air before reaching the ground.
Can you explain why the answer is C?

Answer:

The correct option is C. the ball will reach the ground first.

Explanation:

The ball will reach the ground first since the mass of each object does not affect the rate of fall, both are subject to the same gravitational acceleration 9.81 m / s2. The rock in its vertical movement invests a time that the ball is not released horizontally, so that time of vertical flight of the rock plus the extra height it will have will reach the ground after the rock. Regardless of the friction of the air, it will be different in both objects.

Answer:

Increasing until terminal velocity is reached

Explanation:

Provided the scream is a constant pitch at the source, Doppler effect will make the pitch increase as the velocity of the source towards the listener increases.

A 0. 060-kg tennis ball, moving with a speed of 5. 82 m/s , has a head-on collision with a 0. 090-kg ball initially moving in th
inn [45]

Final speed of the tennis ball, moving with a speed of 5. 82 m/s , has a head-on collision with a 0. 090-kg ball is 2.964 m/s.

<h3>What is conservation of momentum?</h3>

Momentum of an object is the force of speed of it in motion. Momentum of a moving body is the product of mass times velocity. By the law of conservation of momentum,

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v

Here, (m) is the mass, (u) is initial velocity before collision, v is final velocity after collision and (subscript 1, and 2) are used for body 1 and 2 respectively. Rewrite the formula for final velocity as,

v=\dfrac{m_1u_1 + m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}

A 0. 060-kg tennis ball, moving with a speed of 5. 82 m/s, has a head-on collision with a 0. 090-kg ball, initially moving in the same direction at a speed of 3.44 m/s. Thus, the initial velocity of the second ball is,

v_{2f}=5.82+3.44+v_{1f}\\v_{2f}=2.38+v_{1f}

Let v1f is the final velocity of first ball. Thus, the initial velocity of the first ball is,

v_{1f}=\dfrac{(0.060)(5.82) + (0.090)(3.44-2.38)}{(0.060)+(0.090)}\\v_{1f}=2.964\rm\; m/s

Thus, final speed of the tennis ball, moving with a speed of 5. 82 m/s , has a head-on collision with a 0. 090-kg ball is 2.964 m/s.

Two equal resistors are connected in series with a 1.50V battery. In order to keep the current at 0.030 A, the resistors much ea
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: 25 Ohms

Explanation:

From this question, the following parameters are given:

Voltage V = 1.5 v

Current I = 0.03A

From Ohm's law;

V = IR

Where R = resultant resistance of the two resistors.

Substitute V and I into the formula and make resultant R the subject of formula.

1.5 = 0.03 × R

R = 1.5/0.03

R = 50 Ohms

From the question, it is given that Thr two equal resistors are connected in series.

R = R1 + R2

But R1 = R2

50 = 2R1

R1 = 50/2

R1 = 25

R1 = R2 = 25 Ohms

Therefore, the resistors must each have a value of 25 Ohms
