Answer:

The football leaves with the velocity, u = 15.68 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The football bounces back up off the ground and is airborne for, t = 3.2 s

Let the football bounces back up off the ground in the vertical direction

The formula for time of flight is given by,

t = 2u /g

∴ u = gt / 2

Substituting the values,

u = 9.8 x 3.2 / 2

u = 15.68 m/s

Hence, the football leaves with the velocity, u = 15.68 m/s

What is the direction and speed of an object?

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity by definition means speed and direction of an object. This means it has a value and a positive or minus sign indicating direction. Speed is the absolute value of velocity because there is no direction correlated with speed. If you add a direction, it is then called velocity

A year 11 pupil with a mass of 55kg swinging back on their chair and falling off it at a speed of 0.6m/s. What is his kinetic en

posledela

Answer:

Uk = 9.9 J

Explanation:

To calculate the kinetic energie (Uk), you can make use of this formula:

Uk = 0.5 * m * v²

given m = 55 kg and v = 0.6 m/s

Substituting in the formula gives:

Uk = 0.5 * 55 * (0.6)²

Uk = 0.5 * 55 * 0.36

Uk = 9.9 J

Extra:

Now let's examine the formula in relation to the SI units. If you understand the following, it will give you great insight in how smart Phisics is inter twained by looking at formulas and their standard units. It will save you time in future to convert formulas, if you use the right standard units.

The formula for kinetic energie is:

Uk = 0.5 * m * v²

Standard SI unit for mass m is kg.

Standard SI unit for speed v is m/s.

So v * v = v² and therefore v² must have the standard SI unit of m²/s².

From the formula, you see that the unit of Uk must be kg*m²/s² and since Uk is normally given in J, these both forms must be the same !

The main unit for Uk is the Joule. Now please see the picture, which shows the relation between the J and other SI units. Please understand that you can construct your 'own' formulas based these units. Now here is the time saver:

Because almost always the right units are given in a question, or because sometimes you can look up a constant in a table with an exotic and seemingly complicated unit, but that says a lot about the formula which must have been some how involved!

By this, I hope you now understand the implication of using the right standard SI units and how that can help you figure out what formula is needed.

Calculate the force needed to bring a 1,019-kg car to rest from a speed of 29 m/s in a distance of 118 m

son4ous [18]

Acceleration = ▵v/▵t
Time = d/v
Fisrt calculate time : ( 118/29 ) = 4 seconds
Then calculate acceleration
A = 29/4 = 7.25 m/s²
Now the force.
Force = mass * acceleration.
F= 1,019 * 7.25
F= 7,387 N
