a) Vertical velocity: 5.9 m/s

b) Horizontal velocity: 5 m/s

Explanation:

a)

The motion of the ball is the motion of a projectile, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction)

- A uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration) along the vertical direction

Here we want to find the vertical component of the ball's velocity. This can be done by using the suvat equation for the vertical motion:

v_y = u_y +gt

where:

v_y is the vertical velocity at time t

u_y=0 is the initial vertical velocity (zero because the ball has been thrown horizontally)

g=10 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (here we take downward as positive direction)

Substituting t = 0.6 s, which is the total time of flight, we find the vertical velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground:

v_y=0+(9.8)(0.6)=5.9 m/s

b)

The motion along the vertical direction is an accelerated motion, because there is a force (the force of gravity) acting on the ball and that it causes an acceleration in the ball.

However, there are no forces acting in the horizontal direction on the ball (if we neglect the air resistance): this means that the acceleration of the ball in the horizontal direction is zero.

As a consequence, this also means that the horizontal component of the ball's velocity is constant during the motion.

Since the ball was thrown from the table with an initial horizontal velocity of 5 m/s, this means that the horizontal velocity of the ball just before it hits the floor is still

v_x =  5 m/s

12. A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates vertically. It accelerates uniformly until it
vodomira [7]

Answer:

We kindly invite you to read carefully the explanation and check the image attached below.

Explanation:

According to this problem, the rocket is accelerated uniformly due to thrust during 30 seconds and after that is decelerated due to gravity. The velocity as function of initial velocity, acceleration and time is:

v_{f} = v_{o}+a\cdot (t-t_{o}) (1)

Where:

v_{o} - Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.

v_{f} - Final velocity, measured in meters per second.

a - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

t_{o} - Initial time, measured in seconds.

t - Final time, measured in seconds.

Now we obtain the kinematic equations for thrust and free fall stages:

Thrust (v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, a = 30\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, t_{o} = 0\,s, 0\,s\le t< 30\,s)

v = 30\cdot t (2)

Free fall (v_{o} = 900\,\frac{m}{s}, a = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s}, t_{o} = 30\,s, 30\,s \le t \le 120\,s)

v = 900-9.81\cdot (t-30) (3)

Now we created the graph speed-time, which can be seen below.

What are the two major characteristics that change when air is heated and cooled ? How do these characteristics change the movem
sleet_krkn [62]
Two major characteristics that change when air is heated and cooled is the density and the direction of the air flow. They change the movement of the air by heated air rises and cooled air doesn't.

That would be a the first law of newton's laws of motion because it stops from an external force
