A soccer ball is kicked; it comes to rest after rolling through the grass. Why is this not considered a violation of Newton's Fi

Newton's law states that objects at rest/motion will remain at rest/motion "UNLESS" a force is acted upon it.

So the soccer ball got kicked, and then came to rest. This doesn't state that the soccer ball was still rolling when the force of someone's foot kicked the ball.

The ball was put in motion by the kick (an external force). The fact that it failed to continue in a uniform motion is due to (again) an external force acting on it. This time it is the force of <em>friction</em>. The ball rolling through grass hitting small obstacles can be, in aggregate, represented by a force acting against its direction of motion. This force exists until the ball stops. So, Newton's doing fine.

1. A cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds. What is his<br>acceleration?​
Lapatulllka [165]

The cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration exerted by an object is the measure of change in speed or velocity of that object with respect to time. So the initial and final velocities play a major role in determining the acceleration of the cyclist. As here the initial velocity of the cyclist is the speed at rest and that is given as 0 m/s. Then after 3 seconds, the velocity of the cyclist changes to 9 m/s.

Then acceleration = change in velocity/Time.

Acceleration = \frac{Change in velocity}{Time taken}

Acceleration = (9-0)/3=9/3=3 m/s².

So the cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².

In the diagrams, the solid green line represents Earth’s rotational axis and the dashed red line represents the magnetic field a
katovenus [111]

Explanation:

Though the diagram that is mentioned in the questions is not given. I have given general information related to the Earth's magnetic axis with respect to geographic/rotational axis.

Axis is an imaginary line around which a body rotates. The rotational axis of the Earth enters into and exits from the Earth at two points namely: North and South pole.

We know that the Earth behaves like a huge bar magnet so just like the bar magnet it must also have magnetic axis and poles. Earth has north magnetic pole and south magnetic pole. It has a strong magnetic field as well known as magnetosphere.

The interesting point about magnetic axis is that it is not same as rotational axis. In fact it makes an angle with the rotational axis. This is known as magnetic inclination. This inclination varies at different points on Earth.

Another interesting point is that the geographic and magnetic poles are opposite. That means near the geographic north pole we have the magnetic south pole and vice versa.

Which runner has greater kinetic energy: a 45 kg runner moving at a speed of 7 m per second or a 93 kg runner moving at a
bagirrra123 [75]

Kinetic Energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)

First runner:  KE = (1/2) (45kg) (49 m/s)  =  1,102.5 Joules  

Second runner:  KE = (1/2) (93kg) (9 m/s)  =  418.5 Joules

The <em>first runner </em><em>has 163</em>% more kinetic energy than the second runner has.

Complete the following:

When light is incident parallel to the principal axis and then strikes a lens, the light will refract through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens.

To find the answer, we have to know about the rules followed by drawing ray-diagram.

<h3>What are the rules obeyed by light rays?</h3>
  • If the incident ray is parallel to the principal axis, the refracted ray will pass through the opposite side's focus.
  • The refracted ray becomes parallel to the major axis if the incident ray passes through the focus.
  • The refracted ray follows the same path if the incident light passes through the center of the curve.

Thus, we can conclude that, when light is incident parallel to the principal axis and then strikes a lens, the light will refract through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens.
