Not so fast.

I think you're using 'accelerating' to mean 'speeding up', but you really need
to be more careful with it. "Acceleration" means ANY change in speed OR
direction.

If an object's speed to the left is decreasing, or its speed to the right is
increasing, then the net force on the object must be directed towards
the right.

If an object is moving with constant speed in a circular path, then it's
constantly accelerating, because its direction is constantly changing.
The force on it is always directed towards the center of the circle, so
there's one point on the path where the force is directed straight to the right.

This is correct. Just think about it. If you push an object to the right then it will accelerate to the right.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

(a) 2.34 s

(b) 6.71 m

(c) 38.35 m

(d) 20 m/s

Explanation:

u = 20 m/s, theta = 35 degree

(a) The formula for the time of flight is given by

$T = \frac{2 u Sin\theta }{g}$

$T = \frac{2 \times 20 \times Sin35 }{9.8}$

T = 2.34 second

(b) The formula for the maximum height is given by

$H = \frac{u^{2} \times Sin^{2}\theta }{2g}$

$H = \frac{20^{2} \times Sin^{2}35 }{2 \times 9.8}$

H = 6.71 m

(c) The formula for the range is given by

$R = \frac{u^{2} \times Sin 2\theta }{g}$

$R = \frac{20^{2} \times Sin 2 \times 35}{9.8}$

R = 38.35 m

(d) It hits with the same speed at the initial speed.

An object of mass 2 kg starts from rest and is allowed to slide down a

WARRIOR [948]

Answer: B

Explanation:

Given that an object of mass 2 kg starts from rest and is allowed to slide down a frictionless incline so that its height changes by 20 m.

The parameters given from the question are:

Mass M = 2kg

Height h = 20m

Let g = 9.8m/s^2

At the bottom of the incline plane, the object will experience maximum kinetic energy.

From conservative of energy, maximum K.K.E = maximum P.E

Maximum P.E = mgh

Maximum P.E = 2 × 9.8 × 20 = 392 J

But

K.E = 1/2mv^2

Substitute the values of energy and mass into the formula

392 = 1/2 × 2 × V^2

V^2 = 392

V = sqrt( 392 )

V = 19.8 m/s

V = 20 m/s approximately
