A rock is thrown downwards from the edge of the Grand Canyon. With
Olin [163]

Answer:

Vf = 28 m/s

Explanation:

In order to find the final velocity of the rock, we will use the 3rd equation of motion. The third equation of motion for vertical direction is written as follows:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = height dropped = 40 m

Vf = final velocity of the rock = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity of the rock = 0 m/s (since, rock was initially at rest)

Therefore,

(2)(9.8 m/s²)(40 m) = Vf² - (0 m/s)²

Vf = √(784 m²/s²)

<u>Vf = 28 m/s</u>

What is the Scientific definition of friction?
seropon [69]
Friction<span> is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. It is not a fundamental force, like gravity or electromagnetism. Instead, scientists believe it is the result of the electromagnetic attraction between charged particles in two touching surfaces.
Hope this is of great help to you, and happy studying~!

A baseball is thrown at an angle of 20° relative to the ground at a speed of 25 m/s if the ball was caught 50 m from the thrower
scoray [572]

Answer:

2.1 s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a projectile motion. We know that the horizontal range of the ball is

d = 50 m

And that the initial speed of the ball is

u=25 m/s

at an angle of

\theta=20^{\circ}

So, the horizontal speed of the ball (which is constant during the entire motion) is

u_x = u cos \theta = 25 \cdot cos 20^{\circ} = 23.5 m/s

And since the horizontal range is 50 m, the time taken for the ball to cover this distance was

t=\frac{d}{u_x}=\frac{50}{23.5}=2.1 s

which is the time the ball spent in air.

Einstein’s general theory of relativity made or allowed us to make predictions about the outcome of several experiments that had
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1. bending of light in gravitational fields.

2. effect of gravitational redshift.

3. perihelion precission of mecury.

Explanation:

1 bending of light in gravitational fields, we can think of it like this:

by noting the change in position s of stars as they pass near the sun on the celetial sphere, so since the sun creates a gravitational field even the star thats not in our line of side(behind the sun) can be seen because its light is bent.

2. effects of gravitational redshift:

this says that if you are in the gravitational field, your clock moves slower when it is seen by a distant observer.

3. perihelion precission of mecury:

according to Newtonian physics a two body system consisting of a lone orbiting the spherical mass would trace out an ellipse with the center of mass of the system as the focus but mercury deviates from that precission. then according to Einstein, the change in orientation of the orbital ellipsewithin its orbital plane is the effect of gravitation being mediated by the curvature of space-time.
