When an object is dropped, tossed, or kicked, as long as it is not laying on the ground, it accelerates downward, because of the force of gravity acting on it.

What is the theory behind a ticker tape lab?

Lana71 [14]

Purpose: experiments will use it to measure the straight-line accelerated motion of a human hand. The displacement data will be measured and velocity and acceleration will be calculated, run the ticker tape under the guides on the timer and under the carbon circle.Hope this helps! ; )

A helium balloon has an internal pressure of 2.5 atm when it occupies 4.5 L. If it was compressed until it had a pressure of 3.3

steposvetlana [31]

Answer: V = 3.4 L

Explanation: Use Boyle's Law to find the new volume. P1V1 = P2V2, derive for V2, then the formula will be V2= P1V1 / P2

V2 = 2.5 atm ( 4.5 L ) / 3.3 atm

= 3.4 L

. A ball is thrown downward at a speed of 20 m/s. Choosing

a_sh-v [17]

The final velocity is $v = 20 - gt$

The distance traveled by the ball at time t is $y = y_o + (-20)t - \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

The maximum distance traveled by the object is $0 = (20)^2 - 2g(y-y_0)$

The given parameters;

initial velocity of the ball, u = 20 m/s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The final velocity can be calculate as;

$v = 20 - gt$

The distance traveled by the ball at time t;

$y = y_o + (-20)t - \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

The maximum distance traveled by the object is calculated as;

$v^2 = u^2 - 2g(y - y_0)\\\\0 = (20)^2 - 2g(y-y_0)$

Breathing on a cold window can cause it to fog up. which change of state causes this

Dominik [7]

When you breathe on a cold window and it fogs up, that change of state is called: Condensation.

Condensation is: The process in which molecules of a gas slow down, come together, and form a liquid water that collects as droplets on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it.

I know this because I learned it in science class in school.

Hope I helped!

In a game of angry birds you launch a bird with an angle of 53 degrees to horizontal. Unfortunatly, its not a good shot and the

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The maximum height covered is 3.25 m.

The horizontal distance covered is 9.81 m.

The total time in the air is 1.63 seconds.

Explanation:

The launch speed, $u_0= 10 m/s$ .

Angle of launch with the horizontal, $\theta = 53 ^{\circ}$

So, the vertical component of the initial velocity,

$u_0\sin\theta=10 \sin 53 ^{\circ}\cdots(i)$ .

The horizontal component of the initial velocity,

$u_0\cos\theta=10 \cos 53 ^{\circ}$

Let, t be the time of flight, to the horizontal distance covered

$D=10 \cos (53 ^{\circ})t\cdots(ii)$ .

Not, applying the equation of motion in the vertical direction.

$s= ut +\frac 1 2 at^2$

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

In this case, $u =10 \sin 53 ^{\circ}$ (from equation (i), s=0 (as the final height is same as the launch height) and $a = -9.81 m/s^2$ (negative sign is due to the downward direction).
