Because the act of braking is an example of negative acceleration.
Example: if the rate of braking was say 2 meters per second^2, and the starting velocity was 10 m/s, it would take 5 seconds to come to a stop(during those 5 seconds you would still be moving).
Answer:
1/2 m v^2 + 1/2 I ω^2 = m g h conservation of energy
I = 2/5 m R^2 inertia of solid sphere
1/2 m v^2 + 1/5 m ω^2 R^2 = m g h
1/2 v^2 + 1/5 v^2 = g h
v^2 = 10 g h / 7 = 1.43 * 9.80 * 19 m^2/s^2 = 266 m^2/s^2
v = 16.3 m/s
v = R ω
ω = 16.3 / .6 = 27.2 / sec
Answer:
speed=abs(v)=40ms^-1
Explanation:
acceleration, a = (v-u)/t
since initial velocity u=0 (at rest) and a=8ms^-2,
8=v/5
hence after 5 seconds, v=40ms^-1
26.2005 m/s will be the velocity of the apple right when it hits the ground and the initial velocity would be 25.8235 m/s
so Vf=26.2005
and Vi=25.8235
the velocity difference is due to the apple having an initial height of 1 meter
