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

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.

You have gas in a container with a movable piston. The walls of the container are thin enough so that its temperature stays the
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

New pressure of the gas increases by 26.5% with respect to initial pressure, new volume decreases 27% with respect to initial volume and new temperature decreases 8% with respect to initial volume.

Explanation:

If we assume the gas is a perfect gas we can use the perfect gas equation:

PV=nRT

  • For Isothermal process:

\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}(1)

Where subscripts 1 shows before the isothermal process and 2 after it, because isothermal means constant temperature T1=T2, and pressure increases by 10% means P2=1,1*P1, using these facts on (1) we have:

V_{2}=\frac{V_{1}}{1.1} (2)

  • For Isobaric process:

\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}=\frac{P_{3}V_{3}}{T_{3}} (3)

Where subscripts 2 shows before the isobaric process and 3 after it, because isobaric means constant pressure P2=P3, and volume decreases by 20% means V3=0.8*V2, using these facts on (3) we have:

T_{3}=0.8T_{2} (4)

  • For Isochoric process:

\frac{P_{3}V_{3}}{T_{3}}=\frac{P_{4}V_{4}}{T_{4}} (5)

Where subscripts 3 shows before the isochoric process and 4 after it, because isochoric means constant volume V3=V4, and temperature increases by 15% means T4=1.15*T3, using these facts on (5) we have:

P_{4}=1.15P_{3} (6)

So now because P4=1.15*P3, P2=P3 and P2=1.1*P1:

P_{4}=1.15*1.1P_{1}=1.265P1

This is, the new pressure of the gas increases by 26.5%  with respect to initial pressure.

Similarly, we have V3=V4, V3=0.8*V2 and V1=1,1*V2:

V_{4}=\frac{0.8}{1.1}V_{1}=0.72V1

so the final volume decreases 27% with respect to initial volume.

T4=1,15*T3, T3=0.8*T2 and T1=T2:

T_{4}=1.15*0.8T_{1}=0.92T1

The new temperature decreases 8% with respect to initial volume.
