The steel ball in a pinball game rolls around a flat, tilted surface. If you flick the ball straight uphill, it gradually slows

to a stop and then begins to roll downhill. Which direction is the ball accelerating (a) as it rolls uphill? (b) as it rolls downhill?

Why: As the steel ball rolls uphill, the velocity gradually decreases and finally the ball stops, thus, the acceleration will be in the opposite direction of motion (that is downhill). After the stop, the ball will start rolling downhill by an increasing velocity, thus, the acceleration in this case will be in the same direction as the motion (downhill again).

With what minimum speed must you toss a 200 g ball straight up to just touch the 14-m-high roof of the gymnasium if you release
Brut [27]
When they say use energy, you want to use

Total energy = potential energy + kinetic energy = mgh + 1/2mv²

I assume you mean 200 g ball,

so, we know the total distance traveled is going to be 13 - 1.3 = 11.7 m

If the ball just makes it to the top ( 13 m ) , then the ball will stop moving and the kinetic energy will be 0,

therefore, the potential energy at the top will be the total energy of the system = mgh

from this, we say that mgh = 1/2mv² solve for v

<span> v = sqrt (2gh) = 15.2 m/s </span>

a race car accelerates uniformly from 18.5 m/s to 46.1m/s in 2.47 seconds detrrmine the acceleration of the car and distance tra
LenaWriter [7]

Because acceleration is constant, the acceleration of the car at any time is the same as its average acceleration over the duration. So

a=\dfrac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{46.1\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}-18.5\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}}{2.47\,\mathrm s}=11.2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}

Now, we have that

{v_f}^2-{v_0}^2=2a\Delta x

so we end up with a distance traveled of

\left(46.1\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2-\left(18.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2=2\left(11.2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\Delta x

\implies\Delta x=79.6\,\mathrm m
