Answer:

The acceleration of the ball is constant and equal to -9.81 m/s² (acting downwards)

The velocity of the ball reduces at a constant rate with time on its way up

Explanation:

The motion of the ball upwards is described by the following equation;

v = u - g × t

v² = u² - 2 × g × s

Where;

v = The final velocity of the ball

u = The initial velocity of the ball

g = The acceleration due to gravity = Constant

s = The height of the bass after a given time, t

t = The time in which the ball is rising

Therefore, the acceleration of the ball = The acceleration due to gravity (Constant) = -9.81 m/s²↓

From v = u - g × t = u - 9.81 × t , the velocity of the ball reduces at a constant rate with time on its way up.

What is the velocity of a wave that has a wavelength of 20 meters and frequency of 0.5<br> Hz?

k0ka [10]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

recall that velocity is related to wavelength and frequency by the formula

v = fλ

where v = velocity, f = frequency and λ= wavelength

Simply substitute these into the formula:

v = fλ

v = (0.5)(20)

v = 10 m/s

A heavy flywheel rotating on its central axis is slowing down because of friction in its bearings. At the end of the first minut

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

ω₂ = 93.6 rev / min

Explanation:

ω₀ = 260 rev / min

ω₁ = 0.68*ω₀ = 0.68*(260 rev / min) = 176.8 rev / min

ω₂ = ?

t₁ = 1 min

t₂ = 2 min

We can apply the equation:

ω₁ = ω₀ + α*t₁ ⇒ α = (ω₁ - ω₀) / t₁

⇒ α = (176.8 rev / min - 260 rev / min) / 1 min = - 83.2 rev / min²

then we can use the same formula, knowing the angular acceleration:

ω₂ = ω₀ + α*t₂ ⇒ ω₂ = (260 rev / min) + (- 83.2 rev / min²)*(2 min)

⇒ ω₂ = 93.6 rev / min

Velocity and acceleration are both vectors; they have a direction. What is thedirection of the velocity and acceleration vectors

just olya [345]

Answer:

d. Both A & C

Explanation:

- The velocity of the ball is a vector, whose magnitude indicates its rate of change of position, and it has a direction. In this case, the ball is moving upward, therefore the direction of motion is upward, so the direction of the velocity is upward as well.

- The acceleration of the ball is a vector, whose magnitude indicates the rate of change of the velocity. The direction of the acceleration is:

-- positive if the the magnitude of the velocity is increasing

-- negative if the magnitude of the velocity is decreasing

For a ball thrown upward, the acceleration is given by the acceleration of gravity, $g=9.8 m/s^2$ . This acceleration points downward, and it is constant during the entire motion. In particular, it does not change direction, as it is always directed downward. Therefore, the acceleration of the ball is downward.

So, the correct answer is

d.Both A & C

Since A and C are both true:

a.The velocity vector is directed upward.

c.The acceleration is directed downward.

A 9Ω resistance is cut into three equal parts and connected in parallel. Find the equivalent resistance of the combination.

sammy [17]

Answer:

the ans i 1 ohm

Explanation:

if i cut a resistor of 9 ohm into 3 equal parts then each resistor will have a resistance of 3 ohm and if they are in parallel combination the net resistance will be R

so 1/R=1/R1+1/R2+1/R3

1/R=1/3+1/3+1/3

R=1
