bazaltina [42]2 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

no because acceleration is scalar (no direction).

dusya [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: no

Explanation:

because the object is moving downwards so it will be  called decceleration . which is the opposite of acceleration .

In the aerials competition in skiing, the competitors speed down a ramp that slopes sharply upward at the end. The sharp upward
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

u = 11.6 m/s

Explanation:

The end of a launch ramp is directed 63° above the horizontal. A skier attains a height of 10.9 m above the end of the ramp.

Maximum height, H = 10.9

Let v is the launch speed of the skier. The maximum height attained by the projectile is given by :

H=\dfrac{u^2\ sin^2\theta}{g}

10.9=\dfrac{u^2\ sin^2(63)}{9.8}

u = 11.6 m/s

So, the launch speed of the skier is 11.6 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A kangaroo jumps straight up to a vertical height of 1.45 m. How long was it in the air before returning to Earth?
dexar [7]

Answer:

1.08 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) reached = 1.45 m

Time of flight (T) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the kangaroo to return from the height of 1.45 m. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) = 1.45 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1.45 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1.45 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 1.45/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1.45/4.9)

t = 0.54 s

Note: the time taken to fall from the height(1.45m) is the same as the time taken for the kangaroo to get to the height(1.45 m).

Finally, we shall determine the total time spent by the kangaroo before returning to the earth. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (t) taken to reach the height = 0.54 s

Time of flight (T) =?

T = 2t

T = 2 × 0.54

T = 1.08 s

Therefore, it will take the kangaroo 1.08 s to return to the earth.

When an astronomer sees certain stars and galaxies that look much redder than expected, what conclusion might the astronomer dra
Ratling [72]

It all comes to the doppler effect, the red shift means that the galaxy is moving away from us. The redshift is a result from the doppler effect, so as the galaxy moves away the wavelength expands, increasing the wavelength which responds to the red light.
