suppose you press a basketball against a wall. what happpens to the basketball when you are pressing it?

When two equal forces act on the same object in opposite directions, what is the net force?

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

0

Explanation:

Forces with equal magnitudes and opposite directions cancel each other out, so the net force is 0.

If an object is projected upward from ground level with an initial velocity of 144144 ft per sec, then its height in feet after

Liula [17]

Answer:

4.5 s, 324 ft

Explanation:

The object is projected upward with an initial velocity of

$v_0 = 144 ft/s$

The equation that describes its height at time t is

$s(t) = -16t^2 + 144 t$ (1)

where t, the time, is measured in seconds.

In order to find the time it takes for the object to reach the maximum height, we must find an expression for its velocity at time t, which can be found by calculating the derivative of the position, s(t):

$v(t) = s'(t) = -32t +144$ (2)

At the maximum heigth, the vertical velocity is zero:

v(t) = 0

Substituting into the equation above, we find the corresponding time at which the object reaches the maximum height:

$0=-32t+144\\t=\frac{144}{32}=4.5 s$

And by substituting this value into eq.(1), we also find the maximum height:

$s(t) = -16(4.5)^2+144(4.5)=324 ft$

Statement A: Area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.

pochemuha

Explanation:

Formula for calculating the area of a rectangle A = Length *width

For statement A;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.4mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.5504mm²

The rule of significant figures states that we should always convert the answer to the least number of significant figure amount the given value in question. Since 1.4mm has 2 significant figure, hence we will convert our answer to 2 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.6mm² (to 2sf)

For statement B;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.41 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.41mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.57576mm²

Similarly, Since 1.41mm has 3 significant figure compare to 2.536 that has 4sf, hence we will convert our answer to 3 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.58mm² (to 3sf)

Based on the conversion, it can be seen that 3.6mm² is greater than 3.58mm², hence the area of rectangle in statement A is greater than the area of the rectangle in statement B.

Suppose you had two magnets, who were attracted to each other, and you brought them together. Then took them apart by separating

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:4. Two charged objects have a repulsive force of 0.080 N. If the distance separating the objects is tripled, then what is the new force? Explanation: The electrostatic force is inversely related to the square of the separation distance.

Vector vector a has a magnitude of 29 units and points in the positive y-direction. when vector vector b is added to vector a ,

Nutka1998 [239]

Good morning.

We have:

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a} = 29\overset{\to}{j}}$

Where j is the unitary vector in the direction of the y-axis.

We have that

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a}+\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j}}$

We add the vector -a to both sides:

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -\overset{\to}{a} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -29\overset{\to}{j}}\\ \\ \mathsf{\overset{\to}{b}=-47\overset{\to}{j}}$

Therefore, the magnitude of b is 47 units.
