Answer:
31.75 m/s
Explanation:
h = 41.7 m
Let the initial velocity of the second stone is u
Let the time taken to reach to the bottom by the first stone is t then the time taken by the second stone to reach the ground is t - 1.8.
For first stone:
Use second equation of motion
Here, u = 0, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and t be the time and h = 41.7
So, 41.7= 0 + 0.5 x 9.8 x t^2
41.7 = 4.9 t^2
t = 2.92 s ..... (1)
For second stone:
Use second equation of motion
Here, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and time taken is t - 1.8 = 2.92 - 1.8 = 1.12 s, h = 41.7 m and u be the initial velocity
.... (2)
By equation the equation (1) and (2), we get
u = 31.75 m/s
Answer:
The unbalanced force that caused the ball to stop was friction
Explanation:
As Newton's second law states, the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force applied on the object:
therefore, in order to move at constant speed, an object should have a net force of zero (balanced forces) acting on it.
In this case, the ball slows down and eventually comes to a stop: it means that the ball is decelerating, so there are unbalanced forces (net force different from zero) acting on it. The unbalanced force acting on the ball is the friction: friction is a force against the motion of the object, which is due to the contact between the surface of the ball and the surface of the street, and this force is responsible for slowing down the ball.
