OPTIONS :
A.) the force that the ball exerts on the wall
B.) the frictional force between the wall and the ball
C.) the acceleration of the ball as it approaches the wall
D.) the normal force that the wall exerts on the ball
Answer: D.) the normal force that the wall exerts on the ball
Explanation: The normal force acting on an object can be explained as a force experienced by an object when it comes in contact with a flat surface. The normal force acts perpendicular to the surface of contact.
In the scenario described above, Erica's tennis ball experiences an opposite reaction after hitting the wall.This is in relation to Newton's 3rd law of motion, which states that, For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
The reaction force in this case is the normal force exerted on the ball by the wall perpendicular to the surface of contact.
Answer:
The displacement was 320 meters.
Explanation:
Assuming projectile motion and zero initial speed (i.e., the object was dropped, not thrown down), you can calculate the displacement using the kinematic equation:
The displacement was 320 meters.
Answer:
Pascal's law says that pressure applied to an enclosed fluid will be transmitted without a change in magnitude to every point of the fluid and to the walls of the container.
Explanation:
The pressure at any point in the fluid is equal in all directions.
Decreases, stays the same, increases.
The volume decreases because as air is cooled, the individual molecules collectively possess less kinetic energy and the distances between them decrease, thus leading to a decrease in the volume they occupy at a certain pressure (please note that my answer only holds under constant pressure; air, as a gas, doesn't actually have a definite volume).
The mass stays the same because physical processes do not create or destroy matter. The law of conservation of mass is obeyed. You're only cooling the air, not adding more air molecules.
The density decreases because as the volume decreases and mass stays the same, you have the same mass occupying a smaller volume. Density is mass divided by volume, so as mass is held constant and volume decreases, density increases.
