Answer:
I believe the correct answer would be A :)
Explanation:
Newton's first and second laws of motion both do, but I think the one you're looking for is: <em>The First Law of Motion</em>. That description is a little more direct.
It says that if an object is not acted on by a net external force, then it continues in "constant, uniform motion".
-- The object either left or crossed the starting line exactly at time=0 .
-- The object has been traveling at constant speed for all time that
we know about.
a) we can answer the first part of this by recognizing the player rises 0.76m, reaches the apex of motion, and then falls back to the ground we can ask how
long it takes to fall 0.13 m from rest: dist = 1/2 gt^2 or t=sqrt[2d/g] t=0.175
s this is the time to fall from the top; it would take the same time to travel
upward the final 0.13 m, so the total time spent in the upper 0.15 m is 2x0.175
= 0.35s
b) there are a couple of ways of finding thetime it takes to travel the bottom 0.13m first way: we can use d=1/2gt^2 twice
to solve this problem the time it takes to fall the final 0.13 m is: time it
takes to fall 0.76 m - time it takes to fall 0.63 m t = sqrt[2d/g] = 0.399 s to
fall 0.76 m, and this equation yields it takes 0.359 s to fall 0.63 m, so it
takes 0.04 s to fall the final 0.13 m. The total time spent in the lower 0.13 m
is then twice this, or 0.08s
It’s a total of 16 cm because it starts at 0 moves then moves to left then the right then the left
