A cannonball is fired horizontally at the same time a ball being dropped from the same height How do the times it takes them to

hit the ground compare?
Physics
1 answer:
ipn [44]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The cannonball and the ball will both take the same amount of time before they hit the ground.

Explanation:

For a ball fired horizontally from a given height, there is only a vertical acceleration on it towards the ground. This acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity (g = 9.81 m/s^2). A ball dropped from a height will also only experience the same vertical acceleration downwards which is also equal to g = 9.81 m/s^2.

Therefore both the cannonball and the ball will take the same amount of time to hit the ground if they are released/fired from the same height.

A car drives 24 meters to the left in three seconds what is the velocity of the car?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

8 m/s to the left.

Explanation:

Applying,

V = d/t...................... Equation 1

Where V = Velocity of the car, d = distance, t = time

From the question,

Given: d = 24 meters, t = 3 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 1

V = 24/3

V = 8 m/s to the left.

Hence the velocity of the car is 8 m/s to the left.

Show how the alternative definition of power, found in your book, can be derived by substituting the definitions of work and spe
Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

                                       W=[ Fcos\theta]*S  where    Fcos\theta is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

                                  Hence\ W= FScos\theta

                                                        = F.S

As per the question the power P is given as -

                                                  P=\frac{W}{\delta t}

                                                         =\frac{F.S}{\delta t}

                                                         = F.\frac{S}{\delta t}

                                                         = \ F.V

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V
