A. the direction the object is moving in will not change.

B. the acceleration of the object will be 0 m/s2

Explanation:

We can answer this problem by using Newton's second law of motion:

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force acting on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

In this problem, all the forces acting on the object are balanced, therefore the net force is zero:

\sum F=0

which means that also the acceleration is zero:

a=0

Acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity: therefore, zero acceleration means that the velocity of the object does not change. We can now analyze the given statements:

A. the direction the object is moving in will not change.  --> TRUE, because the velocity is not changing.

B. the acceleration of the object will be 0 m/s2  --> TRUE, as we stated above

c. the object will not be in motion.  --> FALSE: we just know that its velocity is constant, but it can be different from zero

D. the velocity of the object will be 0 m/s. --> FALSE, for the same reason stated in C

Which of the following statements is FALSE about collisions? (Consider Newton's Laws an the Conservation of Momentum.)
pantera1 [17]

<u>The following statements are false about collisions: </u>

  • The velocity change of two respective objects involved in a collision will always be equal.
  • Total momentum is always conserved between any two objects involved in a collision.

Answer: Option B, and D

<u>Explanation: </u>

In any collisions, equal amount of net force will be acted upon the colliding objects due to the third law of Newton, irrespective of the significance difference in mass of the objects. Similarly, they can also have different acceleration values during collision of two objects if the masses are identical.

But the statements regarding the equal change in velocity of two objects respectively involved in collision always is false, as the conservation of momentum is applicable for isolated system only. So it is true for only isolated system and not in all the systems.

The same reason goes for falsifying the fourth statement which states that total momentum is always conserved between two objects involved in a collision as this statement is only true for isolated system where the conservation of momentum can be applied. Thus the second and fourth statement is false regarding collision.

A projectile lands at the same height from which it was launched. which initial velocity will result
Serhud [2]

The required initial velocity that will result if a projectile lands at the same height from which it was launched is V₀ = V cosθ

First, we must understand that the component of the velocity along the vertical is due to maximum height achieved and expressed as usin θ.

The component of the velocity along the horizontal is due to the range of the object and is expressed as ucosθ.

If the <u>air resistance is ignored</u>, the velocity of the object will be constant throughout the flight and the initial velocity will be equal to the final velocity.

Hence the required initial velocity that will result if a projectile lands at the same height from which it was launched is V₀ = V cosθ
