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

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

$a = \dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2}$

Explanation:

The acceleration of a circular motion is given by

$a = \omega^2 R$

where $\omega$ is the angular velocity and $R$ is the radius.

Angular velocity is related to the period, T, by

$\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}$

Substitute into the previous formula.

$a = (\dfrac{2\pi}{T})^2 R$

$a = \dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2}$

This acceleration does not depend on the linear or angular displacement. Hence, the amount of rotation does not change it.

Explain the relationship between lightning and storm clouds.

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: Often lightning occurs between clouds or inside a cloud. But the lightning we usually care about most is the lightning that goes from clouds to ground.

Explanation: As the storm moves over the ground, the strong negative charge in the cloud attracts positive charges in the ground.

An automobile tire is rated to last for 35,000 miles. to an order of magnitude, through how many revolutions will it turn?

Furkat [3]

<span>The tire will rotate about 10 million times. An automobile tire is slightly less than 2 and half feet in diameter. It's circumference is that times pi with is a bit over 3. So 2.5 * 3 = 7.5 ft as an estimate for how far the tire rolls per revolution. A mile is a bit over 5000 feet, so call it 700 revolutions per mile. For the 35000 miles, call it 7 times 5000 miles. Now 7 times 7 is a bit under 50, so call 7 * 700 = 5000. And 5000 times 5000 = 25000000. The nearest order of magnitude is 10 million. So as an order of magnitude estimate, a automobile tire will rotate about 10 million times during it's life.</span>

You throw a ball straight up. You are extra strong feeling today. It takes 11 seconds for the ball to come back down.

ollegr [7]

Answer:

A. 148.23 m

B. 2.75 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time of flight (T) = 11 s

Maximum height (h) =?

Initial velocity (u) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the ball to get to the maximum height. This can be obtained as follow:

Time of flight (T) = 11 s

Time (t) to reach the maximum height =.?

T = 2t

11 = 2t

Divide both side by 2

t = 11/2

t = 5.5 s

NOTE: Time to reach the maximum height is the same as the time taken for the ball to fall back to the plane of projection.

A. Determination of the maximum height to which the ball was thrown.

Time (t) to reach maximum height = 5.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Maximum height (h) =?

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 5.5²

h = 4.9 × 30.25

h = 148.23 m

B. Determination of the initial velocity.

Maximum height (h) reached = 148.23 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =?

u² = h/2g

u² = 148.23 / (2 × 9.8)

u² = 148.23 / 19.6

Take the square root of both side

u = √(148.23 / 19.6)

u = 2.75 m/s
