Answer:

-1.46 m/s^2

Explanation:

Write down what is given first:

v0 = 12 m/s

vf = 0 m/s

d = 45 m

We are trying to find acceleration, so we will use the equation vf^2 = v0^2 + 2ad

Plug in the values we have:

0^2 = 12^2 + (2 x 45 x a)

a = - 1.46 m/s^2

Note that this acceleration is negative because the body is slowing down, so the acceleration with be negative, because the change in velocity is negative.

Boyles law<br> squeezing a balloon is one way to burst it. Why? ...?
KiRa [710]
According to Boyle's Law,  volume is inversely proportional to pressure. It means if the volume of a gas goes up the pressure goes down and if the volume of the gas goes up the pressure goes down. When the pressure of air inside the inflated balloon is more than the atmospheric pressure outside the balloon. And also when the density inside is greater than the density outside. The molecules inside the balloon move and bang around the inner walls which produces force, which provides the pressure of an enclosed air.

Based on the graph, describe how momentum changes with time for an object in free fall. If you can help, I would be so grateful.

With time, momentum increases as it builds speed assuming their is nothing in the way to stop it. Based on the graph, you can see that example being displayed as the line on the graph gets higher
