When Jackson throws a tennis ball in a straight path, what two forces cause the ball to eventually stop moving?

After Jackson lets go of the ball, there are two forces on it
that influence what it's going to do.  They are gravity and
air resistance.

Air resistance is just plain friction.  As long as the ball continues
to move through air, it loses kinetic energy to the air and gradually
slows down.

While the ball is in the air, there are no other forces on it that cause
it to stop moving. 

If you absolutely must have another one, it doesn't occur until the
ball hits the ground.  But that isn't even another force.  It's just more
friction, from scraping against concrete and grass.

Gravity pulls the ball down to the ground.  But gravity doesn't make
the ball stop moving.  In fact, gravity tries to make it move faster and
faster, and gravity would succeed if it weren't for all the friction that
the ball encounters.

Well, the force that originally caused it to start moving was inertia, but the  forces that cause it to stop are friction and gravity. Gravity pulls the object towards the center of the Earth, causing it to slow and eventually stop, and friction is the resistance between the ball and the ground (or whatever).

Hope this helps!

True or False: If the initial speed of an object is zero, then the initial position of the object must be the origin. Explain
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is not necessary, that when the initial speed of the object is zero then it must be at origin.

It may be the object starts motion from the left of origin.

un cilindro uniforme empujado por una tabla desde una posicion inicial mostrada en la figura, rueda hacia delante por el suelo,
Andreyy89

Answer:

L/2.

Explanation:

Hola.

En este caso, dado que el hombre empuja el cilindro desde el punto L=0 y hasta la mitad de la longitud entre el hombre y el cilindro, es claro que el cilindro se desplaza un L/2 más de la distancia inicial entre el hombre y el cilindro, de este modo, inferimos que el hombre también ha caminado L/2.

¡Saludos!

An electron with charge −e and mass m moves in a circular orbit of radius r around a nucleus of charge Ze, where Z is the atomic
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

v=\sqrt{\frac{kZe^2}{mr}}

Explanation:

The electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and the electron is given by:

F=k\frac{(e)(Ze)}{r^2}=k\frac{Ze^2}{r^2} (1)

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

Ze is the charge of the nucleus

e is the charge of the electron

r is the distance between the electron and the nucleus

This electrostatic attraction provides the centripetal force that keeps the electron in circular motion, which is given by:

F=m\frac{v^2}{r} (2)

where

m is the mass of the electron

v is the speed of the electron

Combining the two equations (1) and (2), we find

k\frac{Ze^2}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

And solving for v, we find an expression for the speed of the electron:

v=\sqrt{\frac{kZe^2}{mr}}
