Answer:

a. 9.8 m/s2.

Explanation:

The acceleration depends on the force of gravity. It's independent of the velocity of the ball.

If a bowling ball of mass 7.0 kg has a potential energy of 1100 Joules, how high above the ground is the bowling ball?
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

16.03m(2dp)

Explanation:

Ep=m x g x h

1100=7.0x 9.8( gravitational field strength) x h

Height= 1100/7.0 x 9.8

          =16.03498542

          = 16.03m (2dp)

You need to pull up the cart up this ramp. How would you change this ramp so it is easier to pull the cart up?
natali 33 [55]
I would make the ramp flatter. In doing so the ramp would have to be longer.

A car is initially moving at 35 km/h along a straight highway. To pass another car, it speeds up to 135 km/h in 10.5 seconds at
Aleks04 [339]
Acceleration = (velocity final-velocity initial)/ time
where
velocity final = 135 km/hr x 1 hr /3600 s x 1000m/1km
                     = 37.5 m/s
velocity initial = 35 km/hr x  1hr /3600 s x 1000 m/1 km
                      =  9.72 m/s
a) acceleration = 2.646 m/s^2
b) acceleration in g units  = (2.646m/s^2)/(9.8m/s^2)
                                              = 0.27 units

Sam's bike tire contains 15 units of air particles and has a volume of 160mL. Under these conditions the pressure reads 13 psi.
vichka [17]
Use ideal gas equation, with T constant.

pV =nRT => pV / n = RT = constant

n = K* [units of particles]

pV / [units of particles] = constant

13 psi * 160 mL / 15 units = p * 150 mL / 10 units =>

=> p = [13psi*160mL/15units]*[10units/150mL] = 9.2 psi

Water waves that you might see at the beach move in circular or elliptical paths. What type of mechanical waves are water waves?
vazorg [7]

To find:

Which type of mechanical wave is a water wave?

Explanation:

The water wave is a combination of longitudinal and transverse waves. They are a type of wave called surface waves. The surface waves are the waves that transmit energy in the interface between two mediums.

Final answer:

Thus the correct answer is option C.
