If the gravitational force were<span> decreased by half, there would be lack of gravity on earth. Hence, it would basically affect the velocity, speed, and the distance travelled in any direction by basketball players and the ball. The basketball would bounce higher and come down in a slower speed. Whereas for the players, they would be able to leap higher from the floor.</span><span> </span>
Answer:
A. The starting height of the ball
Explanation:
When we talk about controlled variables, we refer to the variable that should be kept the same throughout the experiment. The reason why we do this, is to limit anything else that is not being tested, that may affect the results of the experiment.
In the scenario given, the experiment is to see the relationship between the <u>initial height of a basketball</u> and the <u>height of its rebound bounce. </u>
So you the starting height of the ball should vary, meaning it is NOT controlled.
Answer:
the diver's speed is independent of the launch height.
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use Newton's second law
fr - W = m a
the friction force has the general form
fr = b v
Let's analyze this equation to find out what happens with the speed of the distant club.
When jumping, the initial speed is zero, so the friction force is zero and has an acceleration equal to the acceleration of gravity, as the speed increases the friction force increases decreasing the acceleration until it becomes zero, when it arrives at this value the velocity it has is called terminal velocity and this velocity remains fixed in relation to the trajectory.
fr = W
v = cte
The distance or time in which this equilibrium is reached is relatively fast, so the diver's speed is independent of the launch height.
Atoms have an overall charge that is neutral because atoms have equal number of positive protons and negative electrons thus they cancel each other out. This always true for atoms that are stable and in equilibrium.
The force the rock is exerting on its pedestal is, according to the formula used to calculate force, which is Force = Mass * Acceleration, is 352,800.
