Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10m on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity has a magnitude of 3.7m/s2.​ We want

to know how many seconds the basketball is in the air before it hits the ground. We can ignore air resistance. Which kinematic formula would be most useful to solve for the target unknown?

Explanation:

It is given that, Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10 m on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity has a magnitude of 3.7 m/s².

The second equation of kinematics gives the relationship between the height reached and time taken by it.

Here, the ball is droped under the action of gravity. The value of acceleration due to gravity on Mars is positive.

We want to know how many seconds the basketball is in the air before it hits the ground. So, the formula is :

\Delta x=v_ot+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

t is time taken by the ball to hit the ground

v_o is initial speed of the ball

So, the correct option is (A).

A car traveling at 37m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 15 seconds. What is it’s acceleration
LuckyWell [14K]

<u>Answer</u>

The acceleration is

a=-2.5ms^{-2} to the nearest tenth

<u>Explanation</u>

Since the car was travelling at 37ms^{-1} before it starts to decelerate, the initial velocity is

u=37ms^{-1}.

The final velocity is v=0ms^{-1}, because the car came to a stop.

The time taken is t=15s.

Using the Newton's equation of linear motion,

v=u +at, we find the acceleration by substituting the known values.


This implies that,

0=37 +a(15)

This gives us,

0-37=15a


\Rightarrow -37=15a


We divide both sides by 15 to get,

a=-\frac{37}{15}ms^{-2}

or

a=-2.46667ms^{-2}

At t = 0, object A is dropped from the roof of a building. At the same instant, object B is dropped from a window 10 m below the
dsp73

Answer:

Explanation:

Given two objects are dropped simultaneously

Object A is 10 m higher than object B therefore

Distance covered by object A is given by

y_a(t) is given by

y=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where y=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

y_a(t)=0+0.5gt^2--1

for object B

y_b(t)=0+0.5gt^2--2

Subtract 1 and 2 we get

y_a(t)-y_b(t)=0

i.e. they will travel equal distance in equal time and distance between them remain 10 m until object B hits the ground

Seamus made an electromagnet from an iron nail, a piece of copper wire with three coils spread out across the nail, and a AAA-
never [62]

Seamus can add batteries to increase the voltage, and he can decrease the space between the wire coils to accomplish this goal.

<h3>What is Attraction?</h3>

This is defined as any type of force that causes objects to come together and is possessed by objects such as a magnet.

In order to increase the power of the magnet it is best to increase the voltage and decrease the space of the coils so as to ensure it attracts at least four paper clips which makes option C the most appropriate choice.
