1.

Answer: option A) 4.9 m

Explanation:

From the equation of motion,

s  = u t + 0.5 a t ²

Where, t is the time, a is the acceleration, u is the initial velocity and s is the displacement.

Here, the initial velocity of the bowling ball is zero. u = 0

The ball falls under gravity. Thus, a = g = 9.8 m/s²

Time = 1.0 s

Hence, s = 0 + 0.5 × 9.8 m/s² × (1.0 s)² = 4.9 m

Thus, the ball has traveled 4.9 m after falling for 1.0 second. Correct option is A.

2.

Answer: option D) Jumping with greater initial velocity would increase the height of his jump

Explanation:

The maximum height achieved by a jumper depends on the angle , the initial velocity and acceleration due to gravity.

For maximum height, angle of the jump should be 90 degrees. Hence, more the initial velocity more the height of the jump.

Thus, correct option is D.

1.A) 4.9 m  

AL2006 Ace

The instant it was dropped, the ball had zero speed.


After falling for 1 second, its speed was 9.8 m/s straight down (gravity).


Its AVERAGE speed for that 1 second was (1/2) (0 + 9.8) = 4.9 m/s.


Falling for 1 second at an average speed of 4.9 m/s, is covered 4.9 meters.


ANYTHING you drop does that, if air resistance doesn't hold it back.

valkas [14]

Answer: m∠P ≈ 46,42°

because using the law of sines in ΔPQR

=> sin 75°/ 4 = sin P/3

so ur friend is wrong due to confusion between edges

+) we have: sin 75°/4 = sin P/3

=> sin P = sin 75°/4 . 3 = (3√6 + 3√2)/16

=> m∠P ≈ 46,42°

a flag of mass 2.5 kg is supported by a single rope. A strong horizontal wind exerts a force of 12 N on the flag. Calculate the
tatuchka [14]
The free-body diagram of the forces acting on the flag is in the picture in attachment.

We have: the weight, downward, with magnitude
W=mg = (2.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=24.5 N
the force of the wind F, acting horizontally, with intensity
F=12 N
and the tension T of the rope. To write the conditions of equilibrium, we must decompose T on both x- and y-axis (x-axis is taken horizontally whil y-axis is taken vertically):
T \cos \alpha -F=0
T \sin \alpha -W=
By dividing the second equation by the first one, we get
\tan \alpha =  \frac{W}{F}= \frac{24.5 N}{12 N}=2.04
From which we find
\alpha = 63.8 ^{\circ}
which is the angle of the rope with respect to the horizontal.

By replacing this value into the first equation, we can also find the tension of the rope:
T= \frac{F}{\cos \alpha}= \frac{12 N}{\cos 63.8^{\circ}}=27.2 N
