You toss a racquetball directly upward and then catch it at the same height you released it 1.82 s later. assume air resistance

is negligible. (a) what is the acceleration of the ball while it is moving upward?

Neglecting air resistance, the acceleration of the ball is
the acceleration of gravity ... 9.8 m/s² downward.

It doesn't matter what you toss, what it's mass is, what it weighs,
what color it is, how much it cost, what its shape or size is, how
fast you toss it, in what direction, or how long it's in the air.

Its horizontal acceleration is zero and its vertical acceleration
is 9.8 m/s² downward, from the moment it leaves your hand
until the moment somebody catches it or it hits the ground.

If you push a chair across the floor at a cibstant velocity how does the force of friction compare with the force you exert?
Roman55 [17]

-- "constant velocity"   ===>    acceleration is 0 .

-- acceleration=0   ===>   forces are balanced

-- balanced forces   ===>  (friction) + (force you exert)  =  0

                                           (friction) = -(force you exert)

                        They have equal magnitude and opposite direction.

Daniel [21]

Answer:

<em>The distance of the light is 9.4608 x 10^25 m</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Time taken by the light = 10 billion years = 10 x 10^9 years

speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

speed of light in m/years is = (3 x 10^8)/(60 x 60 x 24 x 365) = 9.4608 x 10^15 m/year

distance = speed x time

therefore, the distance of this light = 10 x 10^9 x 9.461 x 10^15 = <em>9.4608 x 10^25 m</em>
