A projectile has some form of thrust to propel it in the desired direction, while an object in free fall has no extra force guiding/propelling it

A projectile is any object upon which the only force is gravity, Projectiles travel with a parabolic trajectory due to the influence of gravity, ... The vertical velocity of a projectile changes by 9.8 m/s each second, The horizontal motion of a projectile is independent of its vertical motion.

A golf ball is rolling in the grass. What must happen to stop the ball from continuing to roll?
slamgirl [31]
The net force must be zero

This is in accordance to Newton's first law, which states that any object in motion will remain in motion and any object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. An unbalanced force is one where the net force is not zero. If no unbalanced force is applied to a moving object, it will keep moving forever. The reason that we do not observe this in our daily lives is due to friction acting as the unbalanced force.

A ball of moist clay falls 17.3 m to the ground. It is in contact with the ground for 24.0 ms before stopping. (a) What is the a
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Acceleration,  767.08\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Height from a ball falls the ground, h = 17.3 m

It is in contact with the ground for 24.0 ms before stopping.

We need to find the average acceleration the ball during the time it is in contact with the ground.

Firstly, find the velocity when it reached the ground. So,

v^2=u^2+2ah

u = initial velocity=0 m/s

a = acceleration=g

v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 17.3} \\\\v=18.41\ m/s

It is in negative direction, u = -18.41 m/s

Let a is average acceleration of the ball. Consider, v = and u = -18.41 m/s.

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{0-18.41}{24\times 10^{-3}}\\\\a=767.08\ m/s^2

So, the average acceleration of the ball during the time it is in contact is 767.08\ m/s^2.

Moons that show few craters probably
ch4aika [34]

Moons that display few craters presumably. They all pass straight over the equator of the globe. Uranus's five biggest moons. have the closest magnetic field axis.

<h3>Which 4 moons are known?</h3>

There are many fascinating moons around the globe, but the Galilean satellites—Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto—the first four moons identified beyond Earth—hold the most scientific curiosity.

<h3>Can Earth have Two moons?</h3>

Moon and Earth

The basic explanation is that Earth only has one moon, that we name “the moon”. It is the biggest and brightest object in the night sky, and the only solar system body except Earth that humanity have visited in our space travel activities.

Luda [366]

Answer:

0.5m

Explanation:

v=f×lamda

v is 300m/s, f is 600Hz, lamda is ?

lamda=v/f

lamda=300/600

lamda =3/6=1/2m
