The guy below is wrong!


F=ma
Where force = mass x acceleration

We dont have acceleration, a= change in velocity divided by the time taken.
a = v (final velocity) - u (initial) / t
a us 8-0 (at rest means u was 0) / 20 = 0.4

Using F=ma

F= mass x acceleration 
F= 4 x 0.4
F=1.6 N

How long does a player sit out of a game of handball for committing a second or third foul?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Walking’ - If a handball player takes more than three steps without dribbling (bouncing the ball) or holds the ball for more than 3 seconds without bouncing it, shooting or passing, then that is deemed ‘walking' and possession is lost.

'Double dribble’ - Handball players cannot receive the ball and bounce it, then hold the ball, and bounce it again. This is termed ‘double dribble’ and is against the rules.

If an object falls for 4 seconds, how fast is it going when it hits the ground?
MArishka [77]

Acceleration due to gravity is about 9.8 m/s²

So after every second, the speed increase by 9.8 m/s

After 1 second, the object would fall at a speed of 9.8 m/s

After 2 seconds the object would fall at a speed of 19.6 m/s

So after 4 seconds, the object is going to be at a speed of:

9.8 x 4 = 39.2 m/s

-------------------------------------------------

<u>Answer</u>

39.2 m/s

  • its acceleration is zeo

If an object is moving with a constant velocity, then by definition it has zero acceleration. So there is no net force acting on the object. The total work done on the object is thus 0 (that's not to say that there isn't work done by individual forces on the object, but the sum is 0 ).

In what fundamental way did the work of Galileo differ from his predecessors who had thought about the sky?
kompoz [17]

Answer: The correct answer is:

Galileo used instruments and experiments to show him what nature was doing, instead of relying on pure logic

Explanation:

Galileo can be considered as one of the precursors of experimentation and the scientific method. A method that doesn't rely on "common sense" and rationalization and logic, but instead is fuelled by a disposition of skepticism and rather makes claims about reality based on experimentation and empirical data shows.

Galileo differed from his predecessors because he actually used and developed instruments and method to reliable measure and observe what nature was doing, instead of relying on pure logic.
