Answer:
a) "gravitation" is the force causing you to go down a waterslide
b) It is "fluid friction" as a solid object (our body) moves over a fluid (the water)
c) It would become "sliding friction" since two solid surfaces slide over each other
d) fluid friction being the weakest friction, switching to sliding friction means a higher decrease in speed and therefore removing the water from a slide will decrease our speed
Answer:
Newton's First Law of Motion.
Explanation:
Newton's first law of motion states that an object continues to stay in its state of rest, or of uniform motion, until acted upon by an external force.
So in the case of the golf ball here, the ball stays in its state of rest, on the tee, until the golf club hits it, i.e. , applies an external force on it.
Hence we can say that Newton's First Law of Motion is the principle which is most suitable for explaining this phenomenon.
Answer: a = 1.32m/s2
Therefore, the average acceleration is 1.32m/s2
Explanation:
Acceleration is the rate of change in the velocity per time
a = change in velocity/time
a = ∆v/t
average acceleration a = (v2 -v1)/t. ....1
Given;
Final velocity v2 = 1.63m/s
Initial velocity v1 = -1.15ms
time taken t = 2.11s
Substituting into eqn 1
a = [1.63 - (-1.15)]/2.11
a = (1.63+1.15)/2.11
a = 2.78/2.11
a = 1.32m/s2
Therefore, the average acceleration is 1.32m/s2
