A pool player hit a ball with a mass of 0.25kg. The ball travels at a velocity of 15 m/s for 0.75 s until it hits the side of th

e pool table.
What additional information is required to determine the ball's weight?

A.
the force of inertia acting on the pool cue

B.
the displacement of the pool ball

C.
the value in m/s² of gravity acting on the pool ball

D.
the distance to the nearest pocket in the table

Assuming that the pool hall is located somewhere on Earth,
you don't need any additional information.  In fact, you already
have more than you need.

              Weight = (mass) times (acceleration of gravity) .

The question tells you the mass of the ball, and everybody
knows that the acceleration of gravity on Earth is  9.8 m/s² .
So the weight of the ball is

       (0.25 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)  =  2.45 newtons.

I suppose if you momentarily forgot the acceleration of gravity,
then you'd need somebody to remind you, and that would be
choice 'C', but it would not have to be in m/s².  It could be in
any convenient units of acceleration, and you could easily
convert it to  m/s²  before doing the calculation.

A vehicle starts from rest and accelerates uniformly for 12 seconds to a
xz_007 [3.2K]

The value of the acceleration is 0.76 m/s² and the total time taken by the vehicle is 39 seconds.

<h3>Acceleration of the vehicle</h3>

The acceleration of the vehicle before coming to rest is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2as

where;

  • v is the final velocity
  • u is the initial velocity
  • a is the acceleration
  • s is the distance traveled before stopping

the car came to rest with constant velocity attained after 12 seconds.

the initial velocity of the car before 12 seconds is zero.

v² = 0 + 2as

a = v²/2s

a = (10²)/(2 x 66)

a = 0.76 m/s²

<h3>Time of motion of the vehicle</h3>

d = ut + ¹/₂at²

where;

  • d is the total distance traveled
  • t is the time of motion
  • a is acceleration
  • u is initial velocity of the vehicle

580 = 0 + ¹/₂(0.76)t²

580 = 0.38t²

t² = 580/0.38

t² = 1,526.3

t = √1,526.3

t = 39 seconds

Thus, the value of the acceleration is 0.76 m/s² and the total time taken by the vehicle is 39 seconds.
