Answer:
B) a leaf blown from a tree by the wind
Answer:
C. At the instant the ball reaches its highest point.
Explanation:
When a body is thrown up, it tends to come down due to the influence of gravitational force acting on the body. The body will be momentarily at rest at its maximum point before falling. At this maximum point, the velocity of the body is zero and since force acting on a body is product of the mass and its acceleration, the force acting on the body at that point will be "zero"
Remember, F = ma = m(v/t)
Since v = 0 at maximum height
F = m(0/t)
F = 0N
This shows that the force acting on the body is zero at the maximum height.
Answer:
Force = -1161.6 Newton
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity, u = 44m/s
Distance ,s = 12.5cm to m = 12.5/100 = 0.125m
Mass = 0.15kg
To find the acceleration;
We would use the third equation of motion;
V ² = U² + 2as
0² = 44² + 2*a*0.125
0 = 1936 + 0.25a
0.25a = -1936
a = -1936/0.25
Acceleration, a = -7744m/s2
Force = mass * acceleration
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Force = 0.15 * (-7744)
Force = -1161.6 Newton
The value of its force is negative because the glove decreases the velocity of the ball.
The change in Potential energy of the cat is 176.4 J.
<h3 /><h3>Potential Energy:</h3>
This is the energy due to the position of a body. The S.I unit is Joules (J)
The formula for change in potential energy.
<h3 /><h3>Formula:</h3>
- ΔP.E = mg(H-h).............. Equation 1
<h3>Where:</h3>
- ΔP.E = Change in potential energy
- m = mass of the cat
- g = acceleration due to gravity
- H = First height
- h = second height.
From the question,
<h3>Given:</h3>
- m = 15 kg
- H = 2.5 m
- h = 1.3 m
- g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 1
- ΔP.E = 15×9.8(2.5-1.3)
- ΔP.E = 15×9.8×1.2
- ΔP.E = 176.4 J.
Hence, The change in Potential energy of the cat is 176.4 J
