A Ping-Pong ball is given an upward initial velocity. The force of air resistance causes the times of ascent and descent to be u

nequal. Which time is greater?

Answer:

Time of ascent is greater than time of descent.

Explanation:

The gravitational force always acts in the downward direction. The air drag always opposes the motion.

During ascent, the gravitational force and air drag act in opposite direction to the motion where as during descent, only air drag acts in opposite direction to the motion of the ball while gravitational force acts in the same direction. Thus, the time of ascent and descent become unequal with time of ascent being greater than time of descent.

A truck loaded with sand accelerates along a highway. The driving force on the truck remains constant. What happens to the accel
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Acceleration will increase.

Explanation:

The relation between force, mass and acceleration according to the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

F = ma

We are given that the driving force on the truck remains constant, so F is constant here. We can rewrite the above equation as:

a=\frac{F}{m}

Since, F is constant, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass.

There is a hole at the bottom of the truck through which the sand is being lost at a constant rate. Since, the sand is being lost, the overall mass of the truck is being reduced.

Since, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass, the reduced mass will result in an increased acceleration.

So, the acceleration of the truck will increase.

Question 8: Cosmology (8 points)
STatiana [176]

Big bang happened about 13.7 billion years ago in our universe.

<h3>Describe the beginning of the universe according to the big bang theory?</h3>

According to the big bang theory, about 13.7 billion years ago, an explosive expansion began, expanding our universe outwards faster than the speed of light.

<h3>Describe the future of the universe according to the flat model?</h3>

According to the flat model, the universe is infinite and will continue to expand forever because the universe is expanding.

<h3>What is cosmic background radiation? </h3>

Cosmic background radiation is a weak radio-frequency radiation that is traveling through outer space in every direction. It is the residual radiation of the big bang, when the universe was very hot.

<h3>How do observations of the cosmic background radiation provide evidence to support the big bang theory? </h3>

The Big Bang theory predicts that the early universe was a very hot place and that as it expands, the gas within it cools. Thus the universe has all over radiation which is called the “cosmic microwave background".
