Four seconds after being launched, what is the height of a ball that starts from a height of 12 m with an initial upward velocit
MrMuchimi

Answer:

15.24 m/s in the downward direction

Explanation:

Given that the initial upward velocity of the ball is 24 m/s.

Assuming that the upward direction is positive.

As gravitational force acts in the downward direction and the direction of acceleration is the same as the direction of force, so the acceleration due to gravity will be negative.

Now, from the equation of motion, when an object is launched with initial velocity u, the final velocity, v, of an object after time t is v=u+at.

Given that u=24 m/s, t=4 seconds, g=-9.81 m/s^2.

So, the final velocity is

v= 24 + (-9.81)\times 4 \\\\\Rightarrow v= 24-9.81\times 4

\Rightarrow v=-15.24 m/s

Here, the negative sign means the final velocity is in the downward direction.

Hence, the velocity after 4 seconds is 15.24 m/s in the downward direction.

Object A is positively charged. Object A and Object B
ozzi

Answer: object B is negatively charged, object C is positively charged and object D is also positively charged

Explanation: since unlike charges attract and like charges repel, for object A which is positively charged and B to attract B must be negatively charged and then for B which is negatively charged and C to attract C must be positively charged and for C and D to repel they have to be of thesame charge which means D is positive as well.

A lightweight vertical spring of force constant k has its lower end mounted on a table. You compress the spring by a distance d,
shusha [124]

Answer:

v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we can do an analysis of the energies involved in the system. Basically the addition of the initial potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the mass should be the same as the addition of the final potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the block. So we get the following equation:

U_{0}+K_{0}=U_{f}+K_{f}

In this case, since the block is moving from rest, the initial kinetic energy is zero. When the block loses contact with the spring, the final potential energy of the spring will be zero, so the equation simplifies to:

U_{0}=K_{f}

The initial potential energy of the spring is given by the equation:

U_{0}=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}

the Kinetic energy of the block is then given by the equation:

K_{f}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}

so we can now set them both equal to each other, so we get:

=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}

This new equation can be simplified if we multiplied both sides of the equation by a 2, so we get:

kd^{2}=mv_{f}^{2}

so now we can solve this for the final velocity, so we get:

v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

A boy pushes a cart with a constant velocity of 0.5m/s by applying a force of 60 N. What is the total frictional force acting on
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

60N

Explanation:

in this case the minimum amount of force required must be equal to the friction Force. i.e <u>Newton</u><u>'s</u><u> </u><u>first</u><u> </u><u>law</u><u> of</u><u> </u><u>mot</u><u>ion</u><u>.</u>

therefore the maximum amount of frictional force is equal to the applied force which is 60N.

because of the net force acting on the object is zero the object is in constant motion . i.e equal and opposite force must be applied so that the object is in constant velocity therefore the total frictional force must be 60N

A skater slides across the ice with an initial velocity of 5.0 m/s. She slows 10 points
zvonat [6]

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial velocity of a skater is, u = 5 m/s

She slows to a velocity of 2 m/s over a distance of 20 m.

We can find the acceleration of skater. It is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So, it can be calculated using third equation of motion as follows :

v^2-u^2=2as

a = acceleration

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\\a=\dfrac{(2)^2-(5)^2}{2\times 20}\\\\a=-0.525\ m/s^2

So, her acceleration is 0.525\ m/s^2 and she is deaccelerating. Also, her initial velocity is given i.e. 5 m/s.
