The answer would be slowly
Answer: 1.d) The acceleration of an object is always less than the acceleration due to gravity, g (9.81m/s^-2)
2.a)acceleration decreases
Explanation:
Newton's second law:
Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is defined by two variables which is the total force acting on the object and the mass of that object. The acceleration is directly proportional to the net force that is applied on an object and inversely proportional to the mass of that object.
When the force applied on an object is increased so does the acceleration of an object however if the mass increase the acceleration decreases.
This can be felt when you look at the truck which usually carry heavy loads they seem to drive slow due to the load hence their acceleration is decreased by the mass that these truck carry .
The change in potential energy when the block falls to ground is -480J.
The maximum change in kinetic energy of the ball is 480 J.
The initial kinetic energy of the ball is 0 J.
The final kinetic energy of the ball is 0.148J.
The initial potential energy of the ball is 0.187 J.
The final potential energy of the ball is 0 J.
The work done by the air resistance is 0.039 J.
<h3>Change in potential energy when the block falls to ground</h3>
ΔP.E = -mgh
ΔP.E = -Wh
ΔP.E = - 40 x 12
ΔP.E = -480 J
<h3>Maximum change in kinetic energy of the ball</h3>
ΔK.E = - ΔP.E
ΔK.E = - (-480 J)
ΔK.E = 480 J
<h3>Initial kinetic energy of the ball</h3>
K.Ei = 0.5mv²
where;
- v is zero since it is initially at rest
K.Ei = 0.5m(0) = 0
<h3>Final kinetic energy</h3>
K.Ef = 0.5mv²
K.Ef = 0.5(0.0091)(5.7)²
K.Ef = 0.148 J
<h3>Initial potential energy of the ball</h3>
P.Ei = mghi
P.Ei = 0.0091 x 9.8 x 2.1
P.Ei = 0.187 J
<h3>Final potential energy</h3>
P.Ef = mghf
P.Ef = 0.0091 x 9.8 x 0
P.Ef = 0
<h3>Work done by the air resistance</h3>
W = ΔE
W = P.E - K.E
W = 0.187 J - 0.148 J
W = 0.039 J
