It's actually Friction.
I just did the test and got it right.
A) average acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity / time
= 7700 - 0 / 11
= 700ms^-2
B) force = mass x acceleration
= (3.05 x 105) x 700
= 320.25 x 700
= 224,175N
The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s per second.
Answer:
The minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.
Explanation:
To escape earth, the kinetic energy of the asteroid must be greater or equal to its gravitational potential energy:

or

where
is the mass of the asteroid,
is its distance form earth's center,
is the mass of the earth, and
is the gravitational constant.
Solving for
we get:

putting in numerical values gives


in kilometers this is

Hence, the minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.
Answer:
The initial velocity of the ball is <u>39.2 m/s in the upward direction.</u>
Explanation:
Given:
Upward direction is positive. So, downward direction is negative.
Tota time the ball remains in air (t) = 8.0 s
Net displacement of the ball (S) = Final position - Initial position = 0 m
Acceleration of the ball is due to gravity. So,
(Acting down)
Now, let the initial velocity be 'u' m/s.
From Newton's equation of motion, we have:

Plug in the given values and solve for 'u'. This gives,

Therefore, the initial velocity of the ball is 39.2 m/s in the upward direction.
