The kinetic energy of the ball is given by:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m=5 kg is the mass of the ball and v=2 m/s is its speed. Substituting these numbers, we find the kinetic energy:
K= \frac{1}{2} (5kg)(2m/s)^2=10 J

Basketball player Darrell Griffith is on record as
Gre4nikov [31]

Explanation:

1.

We use the equation

h = \frac{gt^2}{2}, where

h is the height traveled,

g is the acceleration due to gravity and

t is the time taken to reach height h.

We can now calculate t to be

\sqrt{\frac{2*1.2 m}{9.81 m/s^2} }

= 0.495 s

Let v be the initial velocity of the player.

The player deaccelarates from v m/s to 0 m/s in 0.495 s at the rate of 9.81 m/s^2.

v = 9.81 m/s^2 x 0.495 s = 4.85 m/s

2.

The player takes 0.3 s to increase his velocity from 0 m/s to 4.85 m/s. So his average accelaration is

4.85 m/s / 0.3 s = 16.2 m/s^2

What is the impulse of a 1700 kg truck traveling at 22.5 m/s?
andrew-mc [135]
Impulse is just the product of mass and speed!

I = 1700 * 22.5  = 38,250 kg m/s

It does not have any special name for its units :(

Hey there!

The answer is : 
The <span>humidity you feel in the southern states of the U.S. is water vapor 
water vapor is between a gas and liquid so that is what gives a humid feel in the hot sun

Hopes this helps u :D

What does Newton's first law describe?
ahrayia [7]
B I think. Newtons first law talks about how if some thing is traveling at like 5 mph it’ll stay at 5 mph forever until the force is put on it.

Which of the following statements apply to electric charges?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The statement "If a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the two objects will repel " applies to electric charges.

Explanation:

There are only two types of electric charges. Both having own magnitude but different charge.

1. Positive charge

2. Negative charge

Like charges repel each other and opposite charges always attract each other.

When a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the rod and the object will repel.
