The horse's position on the ground at time t is

x = (20 m/s) t

The baboon's height from the ground at time t is

y = 3 m - 1/2 g t²

where g = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

The baboon falls and lands on the horse, so that the two animals meet when the baboon's height is 2 m from the ground, which happens after

2 m = 3 m - 1/2 g t²

1/2 g t² = 1 m

t² = (2 m) / (9.80 m/s²)

t ≈ 0.452 s

In this time, the horse reaches the tree, so its distance from it is

(20 m/s) * (0.452 s) ≈ 9.04 m

A tennis ball (m=0.060 kg) is moving horizontally at 20 m/s toward a tennis player who hits it straight back at 26 m/s. What is

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

0.36 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a ball, m = 0.06 kg

Initial velocity of the ball, u = 20 m/s

Final velocity of the ball, v = 26 m/s

We need to find the change in momentum of the tennis ball. It is equal to the final momentum minus initial momentum

$\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\=0.06\times (26-20)\\\\=0.36\ kg-m/s$

So, the change in momentum of the ball is 0.36 kg-m/s.

Please tell me if this is Newton's first law, second, or third law of motion. There can be more than one of the same answer very

AfilCa [17]

Answer: Hope This Helps!

Explanation:

1: Newton’s first law of motion can explain how a magician pulls a tablecloth from underneath the dishes. A negligible horizontal force is applied during the process. As per Newton’s first law of motion, the dishes and glasses remain in their state of motion (rest); as a result, they remain undisturbed.

2: Newton's First Law of Motion is defined as "An object at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force."In soccer, when the soccer ball is in the soccer field and it is not moving, that means that it is at rest and there is no force acting upon it. When there is a person that is ready to play soccer and wants to kick the ball and play, then the unbalanced force would be the power from the person's foot.

3: Newtons third law can explain, as the cannonball is pushed forwards by the expanding high-pressure gases created by the exploding gunpowder, it pushes back on these gases. The gases push back on the cannon itself, causing it to roll backwards. Alternative answer: the cannon pushes forward on the cannonball. the reaction force is the cannonball pushing backwards on the cannon.
