A physics demo launches a ball horizontally while dropping a second ball vertically at exactly the same time. Trajectories of tw

o balls. The balls are initially placed at the same height above the ground. The first ball moves vertically downward, and hits the ground directly below the initial point. The second ball is launched horizontally, and follows a parabolic trajectory until it hits the ground at some horizontal distance from the initial point. Which ball hits the ground first?

Answer:

The two balls will hit the ground at the same time neglecting air resistance.

Explanation:

The vertical motion of the two ball are independent of each other. Also, the balls are falling from the same height in the same time. The ball projected horizontal neglecting air resistance is traveling with a constant velocity ( the same distance in the equal time) has only force of gravity acting on it. They will therefore hit the ground at the same time because they are acted upon by the same acceleration in the same time from the same height.

when a man travel from hilly region to terai region what will happen to his weight ? explain with reason.​
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

His weight increases.

Explanation:

  • The weight of the body is the gravitational force acting on the body at that location.
  • The gravitational force is defined as the product of mass  of the body and the acceleration due to gravity.

                                           W = m x g

  • The acceleration due to gravity of earth is high at the surface and decreases with respect to the height from the surface.
  • Hence, a man in the higher altitude regions experience lower weight that in the the lower altitude  regions.

A student runs up a flight of stairs which info is not needed to calculate the rate of the student is doing work against gravity
NikAS [45]

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Given that a student runs up a flight of stairs which info is not needed to calculate the rate of the student is doing work against gravity A the height of the flight of stairs B the length of flight of stairs C the time taken to run up the stairs D the weight of the student

The rate of doing work is known as power.

Power = work done/time

Work done = energy = mgh

Since energy = mgh

Where mg = weight

And h = height

Time = time taken to run up the stairs.

Time, weight mg and height h will be needed while the Length of the flight is therefore not needed.

The correct answer is B.
