Answer:
This is because the acceleration of objects due to gravity is independent of the mass of the object and is constant for all objects, therefore, all objects fall with the same speed.
Explanation:
The weight of an object or force of gravity acting on an object on the surface of earth is a product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity.
Mathematically, w = mg
where, m=mass of the object; g = acceleration due to gravity
Also, from newton's law of gravitation, gravitational force on the object ,F = GMm/r²
where G is the gravitational constant; M is mass of Earth; m is mass of object; r is the distance of separation between the object and the center of mass of the earth which is approximately the radius of earth.
Since the weight of an object is equal to the force of gravitation acting on it
W = F
mg = GMm/r²
g = GM/r²
The expression above is that of the relationship between the force of gravity acting on a body on the earth's surface, the weight of that body and the acceleration due to gravity, g.
It can be seen that the acceleration due to gravity g is independent of the mass of the object. Therefore, the acceleration of objects due to gravity is constant for all objects and all objects fall with the same speed.
Answer:
a) t=1s
y = 10.1m
v=5.2m/s
b) t=1.5s
y =11.475 m
v=0.3m/s
c) t=2s
y =10.4 m
v=-4.6m/s (The minus sign (-) indicates that the ball is already going down)
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
We apply the free fall formula for position (y) and speed (v) at any time (t).
As gravity opposes movement the sign in the equations is negative.:
y = vi*t - ½ g*t2 Equation 1
v=vit-g*t Equation 2
y: The vertical distance the ball moves at time t
vi: Initial speed
g= acceleration due to gravity
v= Speed the ball moves at time t
Known information
We know the following data:
Vi=15 m / s
t=1s ,1.5s,2s
Development of problem
We replace t in the equations (1) and (2)
a) t=1s
=15-4.9=10.1m
v=15-9.8*1 =15-9.8 =5.2m/s
b) t=1.5s
=22.5-11.025=11.475 m
v=15-9.8*1.5 =15-14.7=0.3m/s
c) t=2s
= 30-19.6=10.4 m
v=15-9.8*2 =15-19.6=-4.6m/s (The minus sign (-) indicates that the ball is already going down)
Physical change 1 is the answer
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Kinetic energy must be moving. Potential energy has the ability to move but is not doing so at the moment.
A is likely the answer. But there's lots involved in that kind of motion.
B If the ball is elevated, it implies it is not moving yet. It has potential energy.
C Again, the spring is compressed. It will push something when it moves, but it is not moving yet.
D The load gun's bullet is not moving. It's still potential energy.
E. The mouse trap is set, but it is not moving. When the mouse eats the bait then it's potential energy will transform into kinetic energy.
