Answer: B

<u>Explanation:</u>

E shows the direction of the ball but the question asks about the direction of the STICK, which is the opposite of the ball.

Explanation:

The ball's horizontal velocity changes from vi to 0, so the acceleration is negative, meaning the force component must point to the left.

The ball's vertical velocity changes from 0 to vf, so the acceleration is positive, meaning the force component must point up.

So you're looking for a force that points to the left and up, where the horizontal component is greater than the vertical component.

1. The gravitational force acting on a falling body and its weight is constant. But the law of universal gravitation tells us th

vagabundo [1.1K]

It's not so much a "contradiction" as an approximation. Newton's law of gravitation is an inverse square law whose range is large. It keeps people on the ground, and it keeps satellites in orbit and that's some thousands of km. The force on someone on the ground - their weight - is probably a lot larger than the centripetal force keeping a satellite in orbit (though I've not actually done a calculation to totally verify this). The distance a falling body - a coin, say - travels is very small, and over such a small distance gravity is assumed/approximated to be constant.

Luis and Aisha conducted an experiment. They exerted different forces on four objects. Their results are shown in the table.

Answer:

Object 3 has greatest acceleration.

Explanation:

Objects Mass Force

1 10 kg 4 N

2 100 grams 20 N

3 10 grams 4 N

4 1 kg 20 N

Acceleration of object 1,

$a_1=\dfrac{F_1}{m_1}\\\\a_1=\dfrac{4}{10}\\\\a_1=0.4\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of object 2,

$a_2=\dfrac{F_2}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{20}{0.1}\\\\a_2=200\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of object 3,

$a_3=\dfrac{F_3}{m_3}\\\\a_3=\dfrac{4}{0.01}\\\\a_3=400\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of object 4,

$a_4=\dfrac{F_4}{m_4}\\\\a_4=\dfrac{20}{1}\\\\a_3=20\ m/s^2$

It is clear that the acceleration of object 3 is $400\ m/s^2$ and it is greatest of all. So, the correct option is (3).

In 0.60 seconds, a projectile goes from 0 to 610 m/s. What is the acceleration of the projectile?

IceJOKER [234]

Answer: $a=1016.66 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Acceleration $a$ is expressed in the following formula:

$a=\frac{V_{f}-V_{o}}{t}$

Where:

$V_{f}=610 m/s$ is the final velocity of the projectile

$V_{o}=0 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the projectile

$t=0.6 s$ is the time

Solving:

$a=\frac{610 m/s-0 m/s}{0.6 s}$

$a=1016.66 m/s^{2}$ This is the acceleration of the projectile

A rifle bullet with mass 8.00g strikes and embeds itself in a block with mass 0.992kg that rests on a frictionless, horizontal s

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

block velocity v = 0.09186 = 9.18 10⁻² m/s and speed bollet v₀ = 11.5 m / s

Explanation:

We will solve this problem using the concepts of the moment, let's try a system formed by the two bodies, the bullet and the block; In this system all scaffolds during the crash are internal, consequently, the moment is preserved.

Let's write the moment in two moments before the crash and after the crash, let's call the mass of the bullet (m) and the mass of the Block (M)

Before the crash

p₀ = m v₀ + 0

After the crash

$p_{f}$ = (m + M) v

p₀ = $p_{f}$

m v₀ = (m + M) v (1)

Now let's lock after the two bodies are joined, in this case the mechanical energy is conserved, write it in two moments after the crash and when you have the maximum compression of the spring

Initial

Em₀ = K = ½ m v2

Final

E $m_{f}$ = Ke = ½ k x2

Emo = E $m_{f}$

½ m v² = ½ k x²

v² = k/m x²

Let's look for the spring constant (k), with Hook's law

F = -k x

k = -F / x

k = - 0.75 / -0.25

k = 3 N / m

Let's calculate the speed

v = √(k/m) x

v = √ (3/8.00) 0.15

v = 0.09186 = 9.18 10⁻² m/s

This is the spped of the block plus bullet rsystem right after the crash

We substitute calculate in equation (1)

m v₀ = (m + M) v

v₀ = v (m + M) / m

v₀ = 0.09186 (0.008 + 0.992) /0.008

v₀ = 11.5 m / s
