What is the acceleration at the apex of a vertical up and down problem?

Physics

Natalija [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct option is +9.81 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of a vertical (up and down) plane depends on if the object is going up or down. Acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s/s or 9.81 m/s². When an object falls/comes down (vertically) without interference, the acceleration of such an object is same as acceleration due to gravity (+9.81 m/s²). However, when an object is thrown/goes up, the acceleration of such objects goes against the gravity (of earth) hence the acceleration is -9.81 m/s².

At the top/apex of a vertical up and down problem, the object will be pulled back down (because of gravity) and hence, it's acceleration becomes +9.81 m/s² (changing from negative while coming up to positive).

A man pulls a sled at a constant velocity across a horizontal snow surface. if a force of 80 n is being applied to the sled rope
balandron [24]
A constant velocity implies the two forces must be equal and opposite.
Friction acts horizontal to the ground, therefore we must find the force applied to the sled rope that acts horizontal to the ground.
Do this by resolving:
Force = 80cos53
The force opposing this is equal, and so also = 80cos53 = 48 N (2 sig. fig.)

A stone is thrown horizontally from the top of a tower at the same instant a ball is droppedvertically. Which object is travelin
Igoryamba

The ball is travelling faster when the two objects hits the level ground below.

<h3>Time of motion of the objects</h3>

The time of motion of the objects depends on height and initial velocity of projection of the objects.

The stone has no initial vertical velocity while the ball has initial vertical velocity.

Thus, the ball is travelling faster when the two objects hits the level ground below.

A 50 kg skydiver is falling downwards and accelerating 6 m/s2 down. What is the net force on the skydiver?
Montano1993 [528]

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)  (Newton #2)

Net Force = (50 kg) x (6 m/s² down)

Net Force = (50 * 6) (kg-m/s² down)

<em>Net Force = 300 Newtons down</em>
