Answer:

17.7 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

y₀ = 0 m

y = 16 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2a (y − y₀)

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (9.8 m/s²) (16 m − 0 m)

v = 17.7 m/s

The ball is moving at a speed of 17.7 m/s when it hits the ground.

3. A car has a mass of 2.50 x 10^3 kg. If the force acting on the car is 7.65 x 10^3 N to the
const2013 [10]

Answer:

3.06m/s² to the east

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of car = 2.5 x 10³kg

Force acting on the car  = 7.65 x 10³N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the car  = ?

Solution:

From Newton's second law of motion:

      Force  = mass x acceleration

   Acceleration  = \frac{Force }{mass}   = \frac{7.65 x 10^{3} }{2.5 x 10^{3} }    = 3.06m/s² to the east

Consider the following mass distribution where the x- and y-coordinates are given in meters: 5.0 kg at (0.0, 0.0) m, 2.9 kg at (
Sauron [17]

Answer:

x = -1.20 m

y = -1.12 m

Explanation:

as we know that four masses and their position is given as

5.0 kg (0, 0)

2.9 kg (0, 3.2)

4 kg (2.5, 0)

8.3 kg (x, y)

As we know that the formula of center of gravity is given as

x_{cm} = \frac{m_1 x_1 + m_2x_2 + m_3x_3 + m_4x_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}

0 = \frac{5(0) + 2.9(0) + 4(2.5) + 8.3 x}{5 + 2.9 + 4 + 8.3}

10 + 8.3 x = 0

x = -1.20 m

Similarly for y direction we have

y_{cm} = \frac{m_1 y_1 + m_2y_2 + m_3y_3 + m_4y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}

0 = \frac{5(0) + 2.9(3.2) + 4(0) + 8.3 y}{5 + 2.9 + 4 + 8.3}

9.28 + 8.3 x = 0

x = -1.12 m

A person pushes a 10 kg box from rest and accelerates it to a speed of 4 m/s with a constant force. If the box is pushed for a t
lutik1710 [3]

The box is accelerated from rest to 4 m/s in a matter of 2.5 s, so its acceleration <em>a</em> is such that

4 m/s = <em>a</em> (2.5 s)   →   <em>a</em> = (4 m/s) / (2.5 s) = 1.6 m/s²

Then the force applied to the box has a magnitude <em>F</em> such that

<em>F</em> = (10 kg) (1.6 m/s²) = 16 N

Three long, straight wires are carrying currents that have the same magnitude. In C the current is opposite to that in A and B.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

(b) B

Explanation:

The direction of force on a current carrying wire in a magnetic field can be found using the right hand rule, which states that-"stretch the thumb in the direction of the current, and point the fingers in the direction of magnetic field. The direction of palm will then give the direction of force on the wire

On wire B the forces due to A and C act in the same direction and so strengthen each other. they get added up because the forces act in the same direction.

on wires A and C the forces (due to B and C and A and B

respectively) act in opposite directions and therefore tend to cancel out.
