A ball is dropped from rest on a cliff what is the speed of the ball 5 seconds later
diamong [38]

Answer:

The velocity of the ball after 5 seconds will be 49 m/s

Explanation:

<em>v = final velocity</em>

<em>u = initial velocity</em>

<em>g = acceleration due to gravity</em>

<em>t = time</em>

Initial velocity of the ball = 0 (As the ball is dropped from rest )

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s

Time taken = 5 sec

As the acceleration due to gravity is constant in both the cases we can use the equations of motion in order to solve this question

Part I :- As we already know the values of u,g,ant t we can use the first equation of motion in order to find v

Part II :- As we know the values of u, t , g we can use the second equation of motion in order to find s.

Velocity of the ball after 5 seconds

Distance covered by the ball in 5 sec

Why is it so difficult for astronomers to see new stars in the process of birth?
vekshin1
Birth happens very quickly, so it is hard to "catch" stars in the act. - most stars are born inside dusty clouds, which block any light that may be coming from the stars.

Describe a technology used in space exploration.
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

High speed optical communication technology

To be able to communicate from the space to the earth and from earth to space is one of the most essential features required during space exploration.

Explanation:

Space exploration involves going into the space, beyond the earth's atmosphere. Landing on other planets and studying their details, going into deeper space beyond the planets to discover new cosmic events or structures is all a part of space exploration.

The key to analyse the studies and observations is being able to communicate the data collected, photos taken etc to the launch centers or space centers on earth. The space centers on earth should also be able to communicate with the persons or the satellites in space.

This is made possible using the optical communication technology which involves the use of optical fibers, lasers etc, since high speeds are more efficient during communication

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

According to Newton's 2nd law

The force acting on a body produces acceleration in its direction which is directly propotional to the force but inversly propotinal to the mass of tbe body.

Explanation:

a = F/m

F = ma

Where( F) is force (m) is mass and (a) is acceleration.
