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

The second law of motion states that: the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables: - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object. The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object

<h3>Meaning of Motion</h3>

Motion can be defined as the process of changing position willingly or due to a force applied.

Motion can be seen in different forms and types depending on the object.

In conclusion, The second law of motion is used to deduce the formula for acceleration.

A burglar attempts to drag a 108 kg metal safe across a polished wood floor Assume that the coefficient of static friction is 0.
V125BC [204]

Answer:

2.00 m/s²

Explanation:

Given

The Mass of the metal safe, M = 108kg

Pushing force applied by the burglar,  F = 534 N

Co-efficient of kinetic friction, \mu_k = 0.3

Now,

The force against the kinetic friction is given as:

f = \mu_k N = u_k Mg

Where,

N = Normal reaction

g= acceleration due to the gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

f = 0.3\times108\times9.8

or

f = 317.52N

Now, the net force on to the metal safe is

F_{Net}= F-f

Substituting the values in the equation we get

 F_{Net}= 534N-317.52N

or

F_{Net}= 216.48

also,

 

F_{Net}= M\timesacceleration of the safe

Therefore, the acceleration of the metal safe will be

acceleration of the safe=\frac{F_{Net}}{M}

or

 acceleration of the safe=\frac{216.48}{108}

or

 

acceleration of the safe=2.00 m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration of the metal safe will be  2.00 m/s²
