Answer: 0.25 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

net force = 2 N

acceleration of volleyball = 8 m/s

mass of the volleyball = ?

According to the Newton 2nd law of motion, net force depends on the mass of the object and acceleration by which it moves.

i.e Net force = mass x acceleration

2N = mass x 8m/s²

Mass = 2N / 8m/s²

Mass = 0.25 kg

Thus, the mass of the volleyball is 0.25 kg

A ball is thrown straight up with a speed of 30 m/s, and air resistance is negligible. How long does it take the ball to reach t

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

3 seconds

Explanation:

Applying,

v = u±gt................ Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity.

From the question,

Given: v = 0 m/s ( at the maximum height), u = 30 m/s

Constant: g = -10 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

0 = 30-10t

10t = 30

t = 30/10

t = 3 seconds

Why do the graphs differ?

melisa1 [442]

Well first graph represents rectangular hyperbola

vu = c^2 ( c is constant)

AS 1/v + 1/u = 1/f

Take1/ f to be constant c

1/v = c - 1/u

it is of the form y = - x + k

Slope = -1 having intercept k as shown in fig 2

The drag force that resists the motion of a car traveling at 80 km h^- 1 is 300 N.

kobusy [5.1K]

The power require to keep the car traveling is 6,666 W.

The power of the engine at the given efficiency is 3,999.6 W.

<h3>What is Instantaneous power?</h3>

This the product of force and velocity of the given object.

The power require to keep the car traveling is calculated as follows;

P = Fv

$P = 300\ N \ \times \ \frac{80 \ kmh^{-1}}{3.6 \ km h^{-1}/m/s} \\\\
P = 300 \ N \times 22.22 \ m/s\\\\
P = 6,666 \ W$

The power of the engine at the given efficiency is calculated as follows;

$E = \frac{P_{out}}{P _{in}} \times 100\%\\\\
60\% = \frac{P_{out}}{6,666} \times 100\%\\\\
0.6 = \frac{P_{out}}{6,666} \\\\
P_{out} = 3,999.6 \ W$

A sample of 5.6 L of a gas is at a pressure of 1.5 atm. If the volume of the gas is compressed to 4.8 L, what will the new press

Effectus [21]

Answer:

1.75atm

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, the pressure P of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to it's volume V provided that the temperature remains constant.

$P\alpha \frac{1}{V}\\hence\\PV=constant$

This implies the following;

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2=...=P_nV_n............(1)$ Provided temperature is kept constant.

Given;

$P_1=1.5atm\\V_1=5.6L\\P_2=?\\V_2=4.8L$

From equation (1), we can write;

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\hence\\1.5*5.6=P_2*4.8\\\\P_2=\frac{1.5*5.6}{4.8}\\\\P_2=1.75atm$

Since all the units are consistent, there is no need for conversion.
