Answer:

 v = 42.92 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

initial speed of the ball, v = 11 m/s

time taken to hit the ground = 5.5 m/s

velocity of the ball just before it hit the ground, v = ?

time taken by the ball to reach the maximum height

using equation of motion

 v = u + at

final velocity = 0 m/s  

 0 = 11 - 9.8 t

  t = 1.12 s.

time taken by the ball to reach the water from the maximum height

 t' - 5.5 -1.12 = 4.38 s

using equation of motion for the calculation of speed just before it hit the water.

 v  = u + a t

 v = 0 + 9.8 x 4.38

 v = 42.92 m/s

Velocity of the ball just before it reaches the water is equal to v = 42.92 m/s

A student pulls a 2.0-kg object to the left with a force of 30 N, while another student is pulling against the object in the opp
alex41 [277]

Answer:

5 m/s2, left

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by applying Newton's second law of motion, which  states that:

\sum F=ma

where:

\sum F is the net force acting on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

In this problem, we have:

\sum F=30 N - 20 N = 10 N (to the left) is the net force on the object

m = 2.0 kg is the mass

So, the acceleration is:

a=\frac{\sum F}{m}=\frac{10}{2.0}=5.0 m/s^2

in the same direction as the force (left).
