If it's not falling through air, water, smoke, or anything else,
and gravity is the only force on it, then its speed increases
at a constant rate ... 9.8 meters per second for every second
it falls.  (That's the number on Earth.  It's different in other places.) </span>

Starting at the same time, an arrow and a ball are shot horizontally with a speeds of 50 m/s and 44 m/s respectively from the to
Yuri [45]

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given.

horizontal velocity of arrow and a ball given as  50 m/s and 44 m/s respectively from the top of a building over flat ground.

In vertical direction, they are both identical

In vertical direction the initial velocity of arrow and a ball  is 0  m/s

Their acceleration due to gravity  is same for both arrow and a ball  9.8 m/s²

they will react bottom at the same time

 time of flight is same for both

now,

In horizontal direction,

distance = speed × time

Since speed is more for arrow, it will travel more horizontal distance  at the same time.

the correct answer is option D

A woman throws a javelin 35 mph at an angle 30 degrees from the ground. Neglecting wind resistance or the height the javelin thr
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

35 mph

Explanation:

The key of this problem lies in understanding the way that projectile motion works as we are told to neglect the height of the javelin thrower and wind resistance.

When the javelin is thown, its velocity will have two components: a x component and a y component. The only acceleration that will interact with the javelin after it was thown will be the gravety, which has a -y direction. This means that the x component of the velocity will remain constant, and only the y component will be affected, and can be described with the constant acceleration motion properties.

When an object that moves in constant acceleration motion, the time neccesary for it to desaccelerate from a velocity v to 0, will be the same to accelerate the object from 0 to v. And the distance that the object will travel in both desaceleration and acceleration will be exactly the same.

So, when the javelin its thrown, it willgo up until its velocity in the y component reaches 0. Then it will go down, and it will reach reach the ground in the same amount of time it took to go up and, therefore, with the same velocity.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of change in momentum is (2mv).

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by the product of mass and velocity with which it is moving.

Let the mass of ball is m. A tennis player smashes a ball of mass m horizontally at a vertical wall. The ball rebounds at the same speed v with which it struck the wall.

Initial speed of the ball is v and final speed, when it rebounds, is (-v). The change in momentum is given by :

p = final momentum - initial momentum

p=-mv-mv\\\\p=-2mv

So, the magnitude of change in momentum is (2mv).
