They can either cancel each other or add up to a resultant force with a certain direction and modulus.
Newton's second law states that F=m*a, where F is the resultant force, ie ΣF.
Given that,
Initial velocity , Vi = 0
Final velocity , Vf = 40 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity , a = 9.81 m/s²
Distance can be calculated as,
2as = Vf² - Vi²
2 * 9.81 *s = 40² - 0²
s = 81.55 m
For half height, that is, s = 40.77m
Vf= ??
2as = Vf² - Vi²
2 * 9.81 * 40.77 = Vf² - 0²
Vf² = 800
Vf = 28.28 m/s
Therefore, speed of roller coaster when height is half of its starting point will be 28 m/s.
1). From the frame of reference of a passenger on the airplane looking out of his window, the tree appears to be moving, at roughly 300 miles per hour toward the left of the picture.
2). The SI unit best suited to measuring the height of a building is the meter.
3). 'Displacement' is the straight-line distance and direction from the start-point to the end-point, regardless of the path that was followed to get there.
The ball started out in the child's hand, and it ended up 2 meters away from her in the direction of the wall. So the displacement of the ball from the beginning to the end of the story is: 2 meters toward the wall.
You first find the mass and the volume of that object. Then you divide mass ÷ volume
