Which is not a way to accelerate an object?

Physics
1 answer:
GREYUIT [131]3 years ago
6 0
<span>Slowing an object down is not a means of accelerating it. It actually decelerates the motion of an object. Speeding it up, changing its direction and applying balanced forces accelerate an object. In order for an object to accelerate, a force must be applied. It follows Newton’s second law of motion where it states that a body at rest remains at rest unless a force is acted upon it. When you move an object, you are exerting a force onto it. By exerting a force on the object, you are actually displacing it from its initial position. You cannot apply force to the object without altering its position. Keep in mind that when you exert work, you are exerting energy too. </span>

You throw a baseball (mass 0.145 kg) vertically upward. It leaves your hand moving at 12.0 m/s. Air resistance can be neglected.
Andru [333]

Answer:

The ball will have an upward velocity of 6 m/s at a height of 5.51 m.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equations of height and velocity of the ball are the following:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

y = height at time t.

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.81 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

v = velocity of the ball at time t.

Placing the origin at the throwing point, y0 = 0.

Let´s use the equation of velocity to obtain the time at which the velocity is 12.0 m/s / 2 = 6.00 m/s.

v = v0 + g · t

6.00 m/s = 12.0 m/s -9.81 m/s² · t

(6.00 - 12.0)m/s / -9.81 m/s² = t

t = 0.612 s

Now, let´s calculate the height of the baseball at that time:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²     (y0 = 0)

y = 12.0 m/s · 0.612 s - 1/2 · 9.81 m/s² · (0.612 s)²

y = 5.51 m

The ball will have an upward velocity of 6 m/s at a height of 5.51 m.

Have a nice day!

Given that the speed of sound in air is 330m/s ,calculate the frequency of a note which setup a wavelength of 5cm in air.Is this
Pie

Explanation:

v = wavelength x frequency

330 = 5 . 10-² m x f

f = 6600 Hz

the frequency that human can hear is about 20 Hz - 20000 Hz

so human can hear the note.
