Answer:

An object with 0 acceleration is accelerating in a direction that is opposite to a stated positive direction.

Explanation:

Acceleration is not always based on speeding up or slowing down (a constant speed is no acceleration at all), it's also based on direction. If you state that an object is positively accelerating when you throw it upwards, then it's negatively accelerating when it's falling even though it's velocity is increasing.

Answer:

it is accelerating in a direction that is opposite to a stated positive direction

Explanation:

it's going backwards if positive is up then negative is down in ur case it's the opposite direction of forward

A tennis ball is tossed up off a building with a velocity of 22m/s. It takes 6.4s to reach the ground. How high is the building

Amanda [17]

The height of the tennis ball,relative to the ground is H=h max+h-->h max-the maximum height that the tennis ball reaches relative to the roof of the building; h-the height of the building;h max =v0^2/2g=24,2m(g=10m/s^2).H=gt^2/2=>24,2+h=gt^2/2=>h=gt^2/2-24,2=180,6m

A car travels 40 miles in 30 minutes.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

(a)Average velocity ,v =128.74 Km/hr

(b)Kinetic Energy , K=958546.875 Joule

(c)Distance, s=268.8m

(d)Acceleration, a= - 2.38 $m/s^2$

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Distance travelled = 40 miles

Time taken = 30 minutes.

(A) The average velocity in kilometres/hour

Converting 40 miles into km ,

we know that,

1 mile = 1.60934

40 miles = 40 x 1.60934

so 40 miles = 64.3738 Km

similarly converting 30 minutes into hours

1 minute = $\frac{1}{60}hours$

30 minute = $\frac{30}{60}hours$

30 minute = $\frac{1}{2}hours$

Now

Average velocity = $\frac{Speed}{time}$

Substituting Values,

Average velocity = $\frac{64.3738}{\frac[1}{2}}$

Average velocity = $64.3738 \times 2$

Average velocity =128.74 Km/hr

(B) If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its kinetic energy in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)? in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)?

Converting 1.5 tons into kg we get

1 ton = 1000 kg

so 1.5 ton =1500 kg

converting velocity to m/s

$128.74 \times \frac{5}{18}$
