It stops accelerating when the air resistance is equal to its weight.
That's (m•g)

= (2 kg) • (9.8 m/s^2)

= 19.6 newtons

Suppose you hit a 0.058-kg tennis ball so that the ball then moves with an acceleration of 10 m/s2. If you were to hit a basketb
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

1 m/s²

Explanation:

Force = mass × acceleration

F = ma ............ Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

Given: m = 0.058 kg, a = 10 m/s²

Substitute into equation 1

F = 0.058(10)

F = 0.58 N.

If the same force was used to hit the baseball,

F = m'a

a = F/m'.............. Equation 2

Where M' = mass of the baseball.

Given: F = 0.58 N, m' = 0.58 kg.

Substitute into equation 2

a = 0.58/0.58

a = 1 m/s²

D- All wave lengths refract at the same angle

Explanation- The amount of refraction increases as the wavelength of light decreases. Shorter wavelengths of light are slowed more and consequently experience more bending than the longer wavelengths.

4. Brandon throws a tennis ball vertically upward. The ball returns to the point of release after 4.0 s. What is the
vekshin1

Answer:

-39.2m/s

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion;

v = u + at

Since the ball is thrown upward, the acceleration due to gravity acting on it will be negative, hence a = -g

v = u - gt

Since g = 9.8m/s²

t = 4.0s

u = 0m/s

v = 0 + (-9.8)(4)

v = 0 + (-9.8)(4)

v = -39.2m/s

Hence the speed of the ball before release is -39.2m/s

A bucket that has a mass of 20 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 15 meter tall building. You have a ro
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W=67.46 Nm

Explanation:

in this question we have given

mass of bucket=20kg

mass of rope=.2\frac{kg}{m}

height of building= 15 meter

We have to find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building =work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

work done in lifting the rope is given as,W_{1}=Force \times displacement

=\int\limits^{15}_0 {.2x} \, dx ..............(1)

=.1\times 15^2

=22.5 Nm

work done in lifting the sand is given as,W_{2}=Force \times displacement

W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 F \, dx.................(2)

Here,

F=mx+c

here,

c=20-18

c=2

m=\frac{20-18}{15-0}

m=.133

Therefore,

F=.133x+2

Put value of F in equation 2

W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 (.133x+2) \, dx

W_{2}=.133 \times 112.5+2\times15\\W_{2}=14.96+30\\W_{2}=44.96 Nm

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,W=W_{1}+W_{2}

W=22.5 Nm+44.96 Nm

W=67.46 Nm
