Two identical balls are thrown vertically upward. the second ball is thrown with an initial speed that is twice that of the firs

t ball. how does the maximum height of the two balls compare? two identical balls are thrown vertically upward. the second ball is thrown with an initial speed that is twice that of the first ball. how does the maximum height of the two balls compare? the maximum height of the second ball is two times that of the first ball. the maximum heights of the two balls are equal. the maximum height of the second ball is four times that of the first ball. the maximum height of the second ball is 1.41 times that of the first ball. the maximum height of the second ball is eight times that of the first ball.

The motion of the ball on the vertical axis is an accelerated motion, with acceleration 
a=g=-9.81 m/s^2
The following relationship holds for an uniformly accelerated motion:
2aS=v_f^2 - v_i^2
where S is the distance covered, vf the final velocity and vi the initial velocity.

If we take the moment the ball reaches the maximum height (let's call this height h), then at this point of the motion the vertical velocity is zero:
v_f =0
So we can rewrite the equation as
2(-9.81 m/s^2) h=-v_i^2
from which we can isolate h
h= \frac{v_i^2}{19.62} (1)

Now let's assume that v_i is the initial velocity of the first ball. The second ball has an initial velocity that is twice the one of the first ball: 2v_i. So the maximum height of the second ball is
h= \frac{(2v_i)^2}{19.62}= \frac{4v_i^2}{19.62} (2)

Which is 4 times the height we found in (1). Therefore, the maximum height of ball 2 is 4 times the maximum height of ball 1.

A railroad car is pulled through the distance of 960 m by a train that did 578 kJ of work during this pull.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

<h2>602.08 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force supplied by the train can be found by using the formula

f =   \frac{w}{d}  \\

w is the workdone

d is the distance

From the question we have

f =  \frac{578000}{960}  \\  = 602.083333...

We have the final answer as

<h3>602.08 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

Why is fusion important?
Sonja [21]

Abundant energy: Fusing atoms together in a controlled way releases nearly four million times more energy than a chemical reaction such as the burning of coal, oil or gas and four times as much as nuclear fission reactions (at equal mass)

A man stands on top of a cliff and shouts.
satela [25.4K]

\small\bf \: let \: the \: distance \: of \: the \: man \: from \: the \: cliff \: be \: x

\small\bf \: thus \: time \: taken \: by \: sound \: to \: hit \: the \: cilff \: and \: return =  \frac{2x}{v}  = 1

\bf \to \: x =  \frac{320}{2} m = 160m

\small \bf \: thus \: the \: distance \: between \: the \: cliffs \:  = 160m \times 2 = 320m

What happens to the object if the line crosses the x-axis from the positive portion of a velocity versus time diagram?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

A velocity time graph shows the change of velocity of an object with respect ot time. If the slope of the graph is increasing in the postive region, it means that the velocity is changing, if the slope is decreasing, it means the the velocity is decreasing, but the object is moving in the same direction (positve direction).

If this slope intersects the graph at x-axis, it means that the body has 0 velocity and has become still. After that, if the line enters in the negative region, it means that its velocity is started to increases again, but the body is movinging in the opposite direction (negative direction)
