The acceleration of the ball after leaving the hand is 9.8 m/s^2 downward

Explanation:

In order to find the acceleration of the ball during its motion, we have to study which forces are acting on it.

After the ball leaves the hand, if we neglect air resistance, there is only one force acting on the ball: the force of gravity, whose magnitude is

F=mg

where m is the mass of the ball and g is the acceleration of gravity (g=9.8 m/s^2), acting in the downward direction.

According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of the ball is given by

a=\frac{\sum F}{m}

where

\sum F is the net force acting on the ball

After the ball leaves the hand, the only force acting on it is the force of gravity, so we can substitute (mg) into the previous equation:

a=\frac{mg}{m}=g=9.8 m/s^2

This means that the acceleration of the ball remains 9.8 m/s^2 downward for the entire motion, after leaving the hand.

25. IF THE ROADWAY IS WET AND THE CAR STARTS TO SKID, YOU SHOULD: A. Slow down by pumping the brakes quickly and firmly B. Slow
AnnZ [28]

If the roadway is wet and the cars starts to skid, one should slow down by shifting to lower gear. The correct option is B.

<h3>What are gears?</h3>

A gear is component used to transmit motion. They are used in cars, trucks, machines, bicycles, etc.

For a car to avoid skidding on the wet roads, one must drive the car slowly. This can be done by shifting the gear to the lower one. This will help car to keep balance when brakes are applied on wet roads.

Thus, the correct option is B.

A bird is flying due east. Its distance from a tall building is given by x(t) = 28.0 m + (12.4 m/s)t – (0.0450 m/s3)t3. What is
Kruka [31]

Answer:

3.76 m/s

Explanation:

Instantaneous velocity: This can be defined as the velocity of an object in a non uniform motion. The S.I unit is m/s.

v' = dx(t)/dt..................... Equation 1

Where v' = instantaneous velocity, x = distance, t = time.

Given the expression,

x(t) = 28.0 m + (12.4 m/s)t - (0.0450 m/s³)t³

x(t) = 28 + 12.4t - 0.0450t³

Differentiating x(t) with respect to t.

dx(t)/dt = 12.4 - 0.135t²

dx(t)/dt = 12.4 - 0.135t²

When t = 8.00 s.

dx(t)/dt = 12.4 - 0.135(8)²

dx(t)/dt = 12.4 - 8.64

dx(t)/dt = 3.76 m/s.

Therefore,

v' = 3.76 m/s.

Hence, the instantaneous velocity = 3.76 m/s

A SMART car can accelerate from rest to a speed of 28 m/s in 20s. What distance does it travel in this time?
sashaice [31]
Speed= distance/ time so distance = speed * time= 28 * 20= 560m .. so the answer is 560m.. l hope it helped :)
