Answer:
1) The greatest height attained by the ball equals 20.387 meters.
2) The time it takes for the ball to reach 15 meters approximately equals 1 second.
Explanation:
The greatest height will be attained when the ball stop's in the air and starts falling back to the earth.
thus using third equation of kinematics we obtain the height attained as

where
'v' is the final speed of the ball
'u' is the initial speed of the ball
'a' is the acceleration that the ball is under which in this case equals 9.81 
's' is the distance it covers
Thus for maximum height applying the values in the equation we get

Using the same equation we can find the speed of the ball when it reaches 15 meters of height as

the time it takes to reduce the velocity to this value can be found by first equation of kinematics as

Answer:
B)
Explanation:
The value the scale shows is the reaction force to the normal force (they are equal by Newton's 3rd Law) that the scale exerts on Eric.
The forces on Eric are his weight (downward) and this normal force (upward), so we can write the net force over him as (also using Newton's 2nd Law):

which means

and for our values this is:

Answer:
-1m/s
Explanation:
We can calculate the speed of block A after collision
According to collision theory:
MaVa+MbVb = MaVa+MbVb (after collision)
Substitute the given values
5(3)+10(0) = 5Va+10(2)
15+0 = 5Va + 20
5Va = 15-20
5Va = -5
Va = -5/5
Va = -1m/s
Hence the velocity of ball A after collision is -1m/s
Note that the velocity of block B is zero before collision since it is stationary
as well.
1. Correct
Explanation
An inclined plane is a flat surface which lie at an angle, Its one end is higher than the other this inclined plane is used as an aid for raising or lowering a load. Staircase also work in similar manner
2. Correct
Explanation
yes all simple machine have a fulcrum
3. Incorrect
Explanation
when we swim that time our arms and legs 'push' the water due to which water displaced in backward direction so her we applied a positive work on the water. According to Newton's Third Law,same magnitude of work is done by water in opposite direction to push us back on our arms and legs. therefore water also does positive work on us.
4. incorrect
Explanation
The force exerted by a machine on an object is input force
5. Incorrect
Explanation
when the input force is greater than the output force that time machine have mechanical advantage of less than 1.
