A ball is dropped from the top of the building.it initially moves at 4.0 m/s after 0.5 seconds it moves at 3.8m/s what force is

responsible for the slowing of the ball
Physics

Ivahew [28]3 years ago

The correct answer is

Air resistance

In fact, when a ball is in free fall, there are two forces acting on it:

- its weight (force of gravity), acting downward

- the air resistance, acting upward

The effect of the weight is to accelerate the ball, because its direction is the same as the direction of motion of the ball, while the effect of the air resistance is to slow down the ball, because its direction is opposite to that of the motion.

What are some changes that can be caused. By sound energy
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Hearing loss due to sound energy damaging the nerve cells in the inner ear. Many animals behavior is influenced by sound energy. They learn to associate events with sounds, so they run when something crunches in the dry grass (might be a coyote), but won't be bothered by the sound of a waterfall. Mood is affected by sound energy. A wine glass can break with sound energy, if the frequency matches the resonant frequency of the wine glass and the amplitude is great enough (one Mythbusters show featured a professional singer who broke a wine glass with his voice without any amplification).

Sound energy causes the particles in the medium it is traveling through to vibrate.

Unlike sound electromagnetic waves can travel trough empty space

A ball is dropped from some height. It bounces off the floor and rebounds with a speed that is one-half the speed it had just be
Arada [10]

Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

According to third equation of motion, v

2

=u

2

+2ax

Here, u=0 m/s

a=−g and x=−h

Negative sign indicates downward direction. Displacement and acceleration both are downwards.

So,v=±

2(−g)(−h)

​

We take minus sign because it is downwards.

v=−

2gh

​

After bouncing. velocity becomes 80% of v, i.e.,

v

′

=+0.8

2gh

​

 

(positive sign because the direction of ball has reversed after bouncing and is upwards.

Applying third equation of motion again, for u=v

′

, v=0 and a=−g

v

2

=u

2

+2×a×x

Thus,

0=0.64(2gh)+2(−g)x

or

x=0.64h

The speed of sound in air is 331 m/s. what is the plane's speed in terms of the speed of sound?
Zina [86]
<span>The initial speed, u of plane in terms of velocity of sound which may be taken as U
u=142/331=0.429*U
It crosses the sound barrier after says t seconds then we have 331-142=23.1*t or t is given 8.18 s exactly t=9/11s.
After 18 seconds the plane will traveling with velocity V
V=142+18*23.1=557.8 m/s==1.685*U</span>
