9. A car driver brakes gently. Her car slows down front --

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

9) This is a case of deceleration

10)-0.8 ms-2

b) acceleration is the change in velocity with time

11)

a) 100 ms-1

b) 100 seconds

12) 10ms-1

13) more information is needed to answer the question

14) - 0.4 ms^-2

15) 0.8 ms^-2

Explanation:

The deceleration is;

v-u/t

v= final velocity

u= initial velocity

t= time taken

20-60/50 =- 40/50= -0.8 ms-2

11)

Since it starts from rest, u=0 hence

v= u + at

v= 10 ×10

v= 100 ms-1

v= u + at but u=0

1000 = 10 t

t= 1000/10

t= 100 seconds

12) since the sprinter must have started from rest, u= 0

v= u + at

v= 5 × 2

v= 10ms-1

14)

v- u/t

10 - 20/ 25

10/25

=- 0.4 ms^-2

15)

a=v-u/t

From rest, u=0

8 - 0/10

a= 8/10

a= 0.8 ms^-2

When a 0.622 kg basketball hits the floor, its velocity changes from 4.23 m/s down to 3.85 m/s up. If the ball was in contact wi

SVEN [57.7K]

when the ball hits the floor and bounces back the momentum of the ball changes.

the rate of change of momentum is the force exerted by the floor on it.

the equation for the force exerted is

f = rate of change of momentum

$f = \frac{mv - mu}{t}$

v is the final velocity which is - 3.85 m/s

u is initial velocity - 4.23 m/s

m = 0.622 kg

time is the impact time of the ball in contact with the floor - 0.0266 s

substituting the values

$f = \frac{0.622 kg (3.85 m/s - (-)4.23 m/s)}{0.0266}$

since the ball is going down, we take that as negative and ball going upwards as positive.

f = 189 N

the force exerted from the floor is 189 N

Calculate the acceleration of gravity as a function of depth in the earth (assume it is a sphere). You may use an average densit

Ber [7]

Solution :

Acceleration due to gravity of the earth, g $=\frac{GM}{R^2}$

$g=\frac{G(4/3 \pi R^2 \rho)}{R^2}=G(4/3 \pi R \rho)$

Acceleration due to gravity at 1000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-1000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 822486 \times 10^{-8}$

$=0.822 \times 10^{-2} \ km/s$

= 8.23 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity at 2000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-2000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 673552 \times 10^{-8}$

$=0.673 \times 10^{-2} \ km/s$

= 6.73 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity at 3000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-3000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 3371 \times 153.86 \times 10^{-8}$

= 5.18 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity at 4000 km depths is :

$g=G\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi (R-d) \rho\right)$

$g=6.67 \times 10^{-11}\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (6371-4000) \times 5.5 \times 10^3\right)$

$= 153.84 \times 2371 \times 10^{-8}$

$=0.364 \times 10^{-2} \ km/s$

= 3.64 m/s

What is the term for the overall change in position?

mart [117]

That's "displacement". It only depends on the beginning and ending locations, and doesn't care about the route between them.
