A bird accelerating from rest at a constant rate,experiences a displacement of 28 m in 11s.What is its acceleration

1 answer:

4 0

Use the formula below for this question:

$v_{f} = v_{i} + 2 * a * d$

re-arrange to solve for a:

$a = \frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{2 * d}$

now simply plug in your variables and there's your answer :). If you ever get stuck, you can look up the kinematic equations!

A baseball rolls off a 1.20m high desk and strikes the floor 0.50m away from the base of the desk . How fast was it rolling?

noname [10]

The initial velocity of the ball is 1.01 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball rolling off the desk is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform horizontal motion with constant horizontal velocity

- A vertical accelerated motion with constant acceleration ( $g=9.8 m/s^2$ , acceleration due to gravity)

We start by analyzing the vertical motion: we can find the time of flight of the ball by using the following suvat equation

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

s = 1.20 m is the vertical displacement (the height of the desk)

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

t is the time of flight

Solving for t,

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.20)}{9.8}}=0.495 s$

Now we analyze the horizontal motion. We know that the ball covers a horizontal distance of

d = 0.50 m

in a time

t = 0.495 s

Therefore, since the horizontal velocity is constant, we can calculate it as

$v_x = \frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.50}{0.495}=1.01 m/s$

So, the ball rolls off the table at 1.01 m/s.

Suppose a rock is dropped off a cliff with an initial speed of 0m/s. What is the rocks speed after 5 secounds, in m/s, if it enc

Tasya [4]

Answer:

The rock's speed after 5 seconds is 98 m/s.

Explanation:

A rock is dropped off a cliff.

It had an initial velocity of 0 m/s. And now it is moving downwards under the influence of gravitational force with the gravitational acceleration of 9.8 m/s².

Speed after 5 seconds = V

We know that acceleration = average speed/time

In our case,

g = ((0+V)/2)/5

9.8*5 = V/2

=> V = 2*9.8*5

V = 98 m/s

Newton's first law equations like velocity and stuff like that

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Newton's first law: An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force. ... An object sliding across a table or floor slows down due to the net force of friction acting on the object.
