D is the correct answer, assuming that this is the special case of classical kinematics at constant acceleration. You can use the equation V = Vo + at, where Vo is the initial velocity, V is the final velocity, and t is the time elapsed. In D, all three of these values are given, so you simply solve for a, the acceleration.
A and C are clearly incorrect, as mass and force (in terms of projectile motion) have no effect on an object's motion. B is incorrect because it is not useful to know the position or distance traveled, unless it will help you find displacement. Even then, you would not have enough information to use a kinematics equation to find a.
The gravitational force will be one quarter.
The gravitational force between two objects is given by the formula
F=GMm/r^2
here, r is the distance between the objects.
Thus the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects, Therefore if the distance between two objects is doubled the force will be one quarter.
Answer:
b
Explanation:
Given:
- The ball is fired at a upward initial speed v_yi = 2*v
- The ball in first experiment was fired at upward initial speed v_yi = v
- The ball in first experiment was as at position behind cart = x_1
Find:
How far behind the cart will the ball land, compared to the distance in the original experiment?
Solution:
- Assuming the ball fired follows a projectile path. We will calculate the time it takes for the ball to reach maximum height y. Using first equation of motion:
v_yf = v_yi + a*t
Where, a = -9.81 m/s^2 acceleration due to gravity
v_y,f = 0 m/s max height for both cases:
For experiment 1 case:
0 = v - 9.81*t_1
t_1 = v / 9.81
For experiment 2 case:
0 = 2*v - 9.81*t_2
t_2 = 2*v / 9.81
The total time for the journey is twice that of t for both cases:
For experiment 1 case:
T_1 = 2*t_1
T_1 = 2*v / 9.81
For experiment 2 case:
T_2 = 2*t_2
T_2 = 4*v / 9.81
- Now use 2nd equation of motion in horizontal direction for both cases:
x = v_xi*T
For experiment 1 case:
x_1 = v_x1*T_1
x_1 = v_x1*2*v / 9.81
For experiment 2 case:
x_2 = v_x2*T_2
x_2 = v_x2*4*v / 9.81
- Now the x component of the velocity for each case depends on the horizontal speed of the cart just before launching the ball. Using conservation of momentum we see that both v_x2 = v_x1 after launch. Since the masses of both ball and cart remains the same.
- Hence; take ratio of two distances x_1 and x_2:
x_2 / x_2 = v_x2*4*v / 9.81 * 9.81 / v_x1*2*v
Simplify:
x_1 / x_2 = 2
- Hence, the amount of distance traveled behind the cart in experiment 2 would be twice that of that in experiment 1.

Fx (the horizontal componenet)
F = √(Fx2 + Fy2)
Fy = 50 · cos 60o = 50 · (1/2) = 25 N
Fx = 50 · cos 30o = 50 · (√3)/2 = 25√3 N
I see, that vector sign did not appear in my comment above, so the vector equation is
