Which is the best example of Newton's First Law of Motion? A small, lightweight ball and a large, heavy ball are dropped off the

top of a very tall building. They both strike the ground at the same time. A basketball player shoots the ball from half court. It soars toward the basket until another player taps it making it go in a different direction. It takes you more effort to move a large box across the room than it does to move a small box across the room. You push your little sister on the swings at the park. You push harder and she ends up swinging higher.

I believe the best example of Newton's First Law of motion would be the example or illustration with the basketball player. An object will move in a straight line or a given direction at a constant speed unless or until another force acts upon the object, causing a change in speed and or direction.

A body falls from the top of the tower and during the last second of its fall it fall through 23mvfind height of tower.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

39.7 m

Explanation:

First, we conside only the last second of fall of the body. We can apply the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where, taking downward as positive direction:

s = 23 m is the displacement of the body

t = 1 s is the time interval considered

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

u is the velocity of the body at the beginning of that second

Solving for u, we find:

ut=s-\frac{1}{2}at^2\\u=\frac{s}{t}-\frac{1}{2}at=\frac{23}{1}-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(1)=18.1 m/s

Now we can call this velocity that we found v,

v = 18 m/s

And we can now consider the first part of the fall, where we can apply the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2 = 2as'

where

v = 18 m/s

u = 0 (the body falls from rest)

s' is the displacement of the body before the last second

Solving for s',

s'=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{18.1^2-0}{2(9.8)}=16.7 m

Therefore, the total heigth of the building is the sum of s and s':

h = s + s' = 23 m + 16.7 m = 39.7 m

How many atoms are in 3MgCl2?
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

3MgCl2 has 9 atoms.

Explanation:

The Element Magnesium (Mg) has 3 atoms.

The Element Chloride (Cl) has 6 attoms.

Their fore 6 + 3 is 9 of course. 3MgCl2 has 9 atoms.

BTW: 3MgCl2 is a molecular compound as well as H2O and CO2.

2. A person applies a force of 66 N to a fridge as they push it across the length of a standard tennis court. So far today, the
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

P=39.2205\, watt

E=374.948 \,cal

Explanation:

Given that:

  • force applied, F=66\,N
  • displacement, s=23.77\,m (length of a tennis court)
  • time taken for pushing, t = 40 s

Since, work is given by:

W=F.s

W=66\times 23.77

W=1568.82\,J

Now, power is given as:

P=\frac{W}{t}

P=\frac{1568.82}{40}

P=39.2205 \,watt

Calories consumed is:

E= 1568.82\times 0.239

E=374.948\, cal
