The quarterback throws a football at 25 m/s at a certain angle above the horizontal. If it took the ball 2.5 s to reach the top

of its path, how long was it in the air?

Answer:

The ball was in the air for 5.0 seconds

Explanation:

When the ball is thrown above at a certain angle from the horizontal it follows a projectile motion.

The ball has a specific vertical and horizontal velocity.

The time take for the ball to reach at the top of its path is also the time taken by the vertical velocity vector to become zero. This is the first half of the projectile motion (ball is going up).

For the second half, the ball comes down and it accelerates with same gravitational acceleration from which it was decelerating in the first half. Hence the time to come down will be the same 2.5 seconds.

So the total time the ball was in the air is twice of 2.5, i.e,

5.0 seconds

Ground infrared telescopes Versailles at high altitude and dry climate. What explains the location for those infrared telescopes
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

High altitude

Explanation:

Infrared rays are absorbed by water vapor in the lower parts of our atmosphere such as near the sea level.Infrared telescopes positioned on high mountains can observe the cosmos at a wavelength near-infrared. In this case, this telescope is positioned on a mountain top where the altitude is high.

Ben and Jerry went for a drive. They decided to stop for a snack and have some ice cream. How fast did they drive on their way t
raketka [301]

Answer: B) 30 km/h

Explanation:

The speed of Ben and Jerry on their way to the store is given by

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the distance they covered

t is the time they took

From the graph, we see that Ben and Jerry travelled for a distance of d=60 km in a time of t=2 h, so their speed is

v=\frac{60 km}{2 h}=30 km/h

A) Is it possible for an object that, object with zero acceleration have velocity? If yes give an example if not give its proof.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Yes, in case of uniform velocity

Explanation:

This is the case of uniform velocity. If a body covers equal displacement in equal intervals of time, then the velocity of a body is said to be ‘Uniform Velocity’. It meas that the velocity of a body remains constant during the motion and it does not change.

Since, acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

Therefore, if there is no change in velocity or in other words the change in velocity is zero, then the acceleration is also zero.

a = ΔV/t = 0/t

a = 0 m/s²

So, the acceleration of the body is 0 m/s², but it has a uniform velocity

<u>Hence, it is possible for an object that, object with zero acceleration have velocity, which is the case case of uniform velocity.</u>
