Answer:
-24 m/s
Explanation:
mass of the bowling ball = 3 kg
time (t) = 0.3 seconds
Force = 24 N
initial velocity u = ???
We know that;
Force = mass × acceleration (a)
So;
24 = 3 × a
a = 24/3
a = 8 m/s²
Also;
From equation of motion; acceleration is given by the relation;
if v = 0
then ;
24 = 0- u
u = -24 m/s
Thus; the initial velocity of the bowling ball when it first touched the mattress = -24 m/s
Answer:
6.32s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Length of track and distance covered = 200m
Acceleration = 10m/s²
Unknown:
Time taken to cover the track = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we apply one of the motion equations as shown below:
S = ut + at²
S is the distance covered
t is the time taken
a the acceleration
u is the initial velocity
The initial velocity of Superman is 0;
So;
S = at²
200 = x 10 x t²
200 = 5t²
t² = 40
t = 6.32s
