The basket ball won't leak but the air would. the air will escape while it is being pressured by gravity, or when you bounce it. then the ball wouldn't work.

Because it has a small hole and air is like water, an area of higher pressure wants to move to a lower pressure area.

a 1500 kg car traveling at 15 m/s to the south collides with a 4500 kg truck that is intially at rest at a spotlight. The car an
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

3.75 m/s south

Explanation:

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

Since the car and truck stick together, v₁ = v₂.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = (m₁ + m₂) v

Given m₁ = 1500 kg, u₁ = -15 m/s, m₂ = 4500 kg, and u₂ = 0 m/s:

(1500 kg) (-15 m/s) + (4500 kg) (0 m/s) = (1500 kg + 4500 kg) v

-22500 kg m/s = 6000 kg v

v = -3.75 m/s

The final velocity is 3.75 m/s to the south.

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 113m in 29s?
Elza [17]
In this item, we are asked to determine the speed of the bobsled given the distance traveled and the time it takes to cover the certain distance. This can mathematically be expressed as,
                          speed = distance / time

Substituting the given values in this item,
                         speed = (113 m) / (29 s)
                         speed = 3.90 m/s

<em>ANSWER: 3.90 m/s</em>

In the parallel spring system, the springs are positioned so that the 37 N weight stretches each spring equally. The spring cons
Reptile [31]

Answer:

x = 5.29 m

Explanation:

given,

weight of stretch = 37 N

left-hand spring constant (k₁)= 2.7 N/cm

right hand spring constant(k₂)= 4.3 N/ cm

spring are connected in parallel

F = F₁ + F₂

F = k₁x + k₂x

F = (k₁+ k₂)x

37= (4.3+ 2.7)x

7 x = 37

x = 5.29 m

How much acceleration can most humans stand before they pass out?
kumpel [21]
Normal humans can withstand no more than 9 g's, and even that for only a few seconds. When undergoing an acceleration of 9 g's, your body feels nine times heavier than usual, blood rushes to the feet, and the heart can't pump hard enough to bring this heavier blood to the brain.
