A ball is thrown straight up from a point 2 m above the ground. The ball reaches a maximum height of 3 m above its starting poin

t and then falls 5 m to the ground. When the ball strikes the ground, what is its displacement from its starting point?

Answer:

2 m

Explanation:

The displacement of any body is the shortest distance in an object's path between its initial and final point.

The ball would travel 3 m from the point of throwing then fall down 5 m to the ground. The total distance traveled is 7 m.

The displacement of the ball will be the distance from the point of throwing to the ground i.e., 2 m as it is the shortest distance between the initial and final point of the ball's journey.

What is the pressure at the bottom<br> of a 2.50 m deep pool of water?
Grace [21]

Answer:

Pressure = Density x Gravity acceleration x Height

Density of water = 1000 Kgm^-3

Gravity acceleration = 9.8 ms^-2

So it is 4.50.

Hope this helps and please mark me brainliest!

Two objects were lifted by a machine.One object had a mass of 2 kilograms and was lifted at a speed of 2 m/sec.The other had a m
NikAS [45]

Answer:

While lifting two object the machine needs the different momentum for different mass object.

Explanation:

  • Momentum is the quantity of motion contained in an object. Usually it is measured by the product of mass and velocity.
  • Momentum of first mass = 2 kg × 2 m/sec = 4 kg m/sec
  • Momentum of second mass = 4 kg × 3 m/sec = 12 kg m/sec
  • So the machine requires higher mass in motion for second object ( i.e. momentum) than the first one while lifting.

What is the potential energy of a spring that is compressed 0.65 m by a 25 kg block if the spring constant is 95 N/m?
Sonbull [250]
E=F*d/2 = M*g*d/2 = 25kg * 9.8 N/kg *0.65m / 2 = 79.625J
