<span>The distance between you and your image changes by 2.0m. The reason for this is that you are 1m farther from the mirror and your reflection is also an additional 1m further away due to the symmetry.</span>

A boy throws a baseball onto a roof and it rolls back down and off the roof with a speed of 3.05 m/s. If the roof is pitched at

1) Time in the air: 0.78 s

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

- A horizontal motion with constant horizontal velocity

- A vertical motion with constant downward acceleration of

g=-9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

The initial vertical velocity is

u_y = u sin \theta = (3.05)(sin(-40^{\circ}))=-1.96 m/s

where the negative sign means the direction is downward.

The vertical position of the ball is given by

y(t) = h + u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 4.50 m is the initial heigth of the ball when it starts falling down

The ball reaches the ground when y = 0, so we have:

0 = 4.50 -1.96t-4.9t^2

This is a second-order equation; solving for t, we get

t = -1.18 s

t = 0.78 s

We discard the negative solution since it has no physical meaning, so we can say that the ball spent 0.78 s in the air.

2) Horizontal distance: 1.83 m

For this second part of the problem, we just have to consider the horizontal motion of the ball.

As we said previously, the motion of the ball along the horizontal direction is a uniform motion with constant velocity, which is given by

v_x = u cos \theta = (3.05)(cos (-40.0^{\circ}))=2.34 m/s

where u = 3.05 m/s is the initial speed and \theta the angle of projection.

For a uniform motion, we can use the following relationship between distance covered and velocity:

d=v_x t

and substituting t = 0.78 s, we find the total distance travelled along the horizontal direction by the ball before reaching the ground:

d=(2.34)(0.78)=1.83 m

a ball rolls off the edge of a 2m high shelf at a speed of 5 m/s and hits the ground the taken to hit the ground is
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the one-dimensional equation

Δx = v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2 where delta x is the displacement of the object, v0 is the velocity of the object, a is the pull of gravity, and t is the time in seconds. That's our unknown.

Δx = -2 (negative because where it ends up is lower than the point at which it started),

v_0=5, and

a = -9.8

Filling in:

-2=5t+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8) t^2 and simplified a bit:

-2=5t-4.9 t^2

this should look hauntingly familiar (a quadratic, which is parabolic motion...very important in physics!!). We begin by getting everything on one side of the equals sign and solving for t by factoring:

-4.9 t^2+5t+2=0 (the 0 is also indicative of the object landing on the ground! Isn't this a beautiful thing, how it all just works so perfectly together?)

When you factor this however your math/physics teacher has you factoring you will get that

t = 1.3 sec and t = -.31 sec

Since we all know that time can NEVER be negative, it takes the ball 1.3 sec to hit the ground from a height of 2 m if it is rolling off the shelf at 5 m/s.

The number of neutrons is equal to the atomic number<br> O A True<br> B. False
jonny [76]

The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons. The mass number of the atom (M) is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. The number of neutrons is equal to the difference between the mass number of the atom (M) and the atomic number. Therefore, it is true!

If a net force applied to an object is equal to zero, then the forces that are acting on an object are considered.
hjlf

Answer:

The mass will accelerate. Balanced Forces: When forces are in balance, acceleration is zero. Velocity is constant and there is no net or unbalanced force. A plane will fly at constant velocity if the acceleration is zero.
