Answer: The velocity of the ball is 30.0 m/s

This can be calculated by using the value of acceleration as 10.0 m/s2 in free fall and the given time of 3.0 seconds. To get the velocity, one will have to multiply the acceleration with the given time and the quotient would result to 30.0 m/s. Mostly all object regardless of their mass, fall to earth with the same acceleration in the absence of air resistance and as the child drops the ball from a window, it gains speed as it falls.

Why do stars twinkle​
vlada-n [284]

As light from a star races through our atmosphere, it bounces and bumps through the different layers, bending the light before you see it. Since the hot and cold layers of air keep moving, the bending of the light changes too, which causes the star's appearance to wobble or twinkle.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

\triangle x=3.2*10^-^5 m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Height of circular cylinder is h= 1.8m

Diameter of cylinderD=4cm=>0.04m

Horizontal Force  F=900N

Y = 10.0 *10^1^0 N/m^2 \\B = 9.0 * 10^1^0 N/m^2\\S = 4.0 * 10^1^0 N/m^2\\

Generally the formula for shear modulus is mathematically represented by

G=\frac{\tau}{\gamma}

Where

G=Shear modulus\\\tau= shear\ stress\\\gamma=shear strain

G=\frac{F/A}{\triangle x/L}

G=\frac{900/\pi r^2}{\triangle x/1.8}

4.0*10^1^0=\frac{900/\pi r^2}{\triangle x/1.8}

4.0*10^1^0=\frac{900}{\pi r^2}  *\frac{1.8}{\triangle x}

{\triangle x} =\frac{1620}{\pi r^2* 4.0*10^1^0}

\triangle x=3.2*10^-^5 m

A cannon shoot a cannon ball. The momentum compared to the cannon ball is
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

After the firing occurs, both the cannon and cannonball have the same momentum (big mass, small velocity vs. small mass, big velocity). But since the momentum for each is moving in the opposite direction, the momentums cancel out, causing the cannon-cannonball system's momentum to equal zero.
