A ball is dropped off a very tall canyon ledge. Gravity accelerates the ball at 9.8 m/s2. How fast is the ball traveling after 5

seconds?

As ball is dropped, so its initial velocity (u) of the ball is = 0

Acceleration of the ball (a) is given to be 9.8 m/s^2

As acceleration is constant, so we can apply the equation of kinematics for constant acceleration i.e. v = u + at

where u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and v is final velocity at after time t

so velocity after 5 sec will be = 0 +(9.8)5 = 49 m/s

When the force acting on the body equal to acceleration?
topjm [15]

Answer:

Acceleration and velocity Newton's second law says that when a constant force acts on a massive body, it causes it to accelerate, i.e., to change its velocity, at a constant rate. In the simplest case, a force applied to an object at rest causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force.

grin007 [14]

Answer:

a = 4.9(1 - sinθ - 0.4cosθ)

Explanation:

Really not possible without a complete setup.

I will ASSUME that this an Atwood machine with two masses (m) connected by an ideal rope passing over an ideal pulley. One mass hangs freely and the other is on a slope of angle θ to the horizontal with coefficient of friction μ. Gravity is g

                                     F = ma

mg - mgsinθ - μmgcosθ = (m + m)a

      mg(1 - sinθ - μcosθ) = 2ma

      ½g(1 - sinθ - μcosθ) = a

maximum acceleration is about 2.94 m/s² when θ = 0

acceleration will be zero when θ is greater than about 46.4°

Would a liquid’s refractive index measured at a high altitude be different from that measured at sea level?
Murrr4er [49]
By definition, refractive index is the ratio of the velocity of light in vacuum to the velocity of light in a specified medium. The medium here is the liquid. The speed of light through the liquid also depends on the temperature and pressure. At sea level, the liquid is higher in temperature and pressure. So, the speed is gonna be relatively slower because of the movement of atoms. At high altitude, the liquid is at a lower temperature and pressure. The movements of the molecules are lesser, thus, light can move much faster. So, yes, it would be different. The refractive index would be closer to 1 at high altitude, and greater than 1 at sea level.
