Answer:
= -32.53 m / s
this velocity is directed downwards
Explanation:
This is a free fall exercise, let's use the expression
= v_{oy}^{2} + 2 g (y -yo)
where we are assuming that there is friction with the air, as the body falls its initial velocity is zero
v_{oy} = √ 2g (y - y₀)
let's calculate
v_{y} = √ (2 9.8 (0-54.0))
= -32.53 m / s
this velocity is directed downwards
Answer: #.37 times greater
Explanation: Volume of a sphere is: V = ·π·r³
Since it is given the diameter of the basketball and the softball, their ratios are r₁ = 3in and r₂ = 2in, in which index 1 represents the basketball and index 2, the softball.
Calculating the volume of basketball:
V₁ = . 3.14 . 3³
V₁ = 113.04 in³
Calculating the volume of softball:
V₂ = . 3.14 . 2³
V₂ = 33.5 in³
Comparing one volume with the other:
= = 3.37
We have that V₁ = 3.37V₂
This means the volume of a basketball is 3.37 times greater than the volume of a softball.
Answer:
B. No. He presented no scientific data to support his claim.
Answer:
Explanation:
This is an excellent question to get an answer for. It teaches you much about the nature of physics.
The answer is no.
The distance will be quite different. The time might be different in getting to the distance. But the acceleration will be the same in either case.
How do you know? Look at one of the formulas, say
d = vi * t + 1/2*a * t^2
What does vi do? vi will alter both t and d. if vi = 0 then both d and/or t will be found. But what will "a" do? Is there anything else acting in the up or down line of action? You should answer no.
If vi is not zero, t will be less and d will take less time to get where it is going.
Using newton's second law, F = ma, the answer is -2.5 m/s^2.
4520 = (1800)(a)
