Answer:

A body falling down towards earth, when upward direction is considered as positive direction got negative velocity and acceleration.

Explanation:

You are standing on top of a building with certain height, H and you select height of building to be positive. If you throw a stone upward it's displacement is increasing and velocity is decreasing, both of them are positive and it is attracted towards earth by an acceleration so it is downward. SO it's value is negative.

After reaching the maximum height the stone comes down and it's velocity increases in the downward direction, in this situation it is having negative velocity and and negative acceleration.

A child sleds down a hill with an acceleration of 2.94 m/s2. If her initial speed is 0.0 m/s and her final speed is 17.5 m/s, ho

Answer:

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

Explanation:

Given that the child accelerates uniformly and that both initial ( $v_{o}$ ) and final speeds ( $v_{f}$ ), measured in meters per second, and acceleration ( $a$ ), measured in meters per square second, are known, we proceed to use the following kinematic equation to determine the time taken to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom ( $t$ ), measured in seconds, is:

$t = \frac{v_{f}-v_{o}}{a}$ (1)

If we know that $v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v_{f} = 17.5\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $a = 2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , then the time taken is:

$t = \frac{17.5\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s} }{2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }$

$t = 5.952\,s$

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

A 0.105- kg hockey puck moving at 24 m/s is caught and held by a 75-kg goalie at rest. With what speed does the goalie slide on

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

0.03 m/s

Explanation:

Applying law of conservation of momentum,

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v
0.105(24) + 75(0) = (0.105 + 75)v
75.105v = 2.52
v = 2.52/75.105
v = 0.03 m/s
