A. is the answer for this question
C: the mechanical energy isn't conserved. Some energy was lost to friction.
Motion of a ball thrown by a person upwards and caught after some time is an example of motion in which displacement of the particle is zero but acceleration is not zero in journey.
The displacement of the ball is zero because the starting and end point of the motion are same, i.e, the person's hands.During its motion, the acceleration of ball is constant and non zero called as acceleration due to gravity, g= -9.8 m/s². The velocity of ball is continuously changing. It first decreases during the upward motion of the ball and then increases during the downward journey.The acceleration remains constant and non zero all the time.
Earth's distance from the sun doesn't change enough to cause seasonal differences. Instead, our seasons change because Earth tilts on its axis.
hope it helps.
Answer: The coefficient of kinetic friction is μ = 0.6
Explanation:
For an object of mass M, the weight is:
W = M*g
where g is the gravitational acceleration: g = 9.8m/s^2
And the friction force between this object and the surface can be written as:
F = W*μ
where μ is the coefficient of friction (kinetic if the object is moving, and static if the object is not moving, usually the static coefficient is larger)
In this case, the weight is:
W = 20N
And the friction force is:
F = 12N
Replacing these values in the equation for the friction force we get:
12N = 20N*μ
(12N/20N) = μ = 0.6
The coefficient of kinetic friction is μ = 0.6
