Velocity is the speed with a direction and speed does not have a specific direction

Well the difference between velocity and speed would be that velocity is basically speed with a direction with a vector assisting with it... and Speed would be distance traveled... I hoped that this helped. :)<span />

A car of mass 1100kg moves at 24 m/s. What is the braking force needed to bring the car to a halt in 2.0 seconds? N
LenaWriter [7]

13200N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass = 1100kg

Velocity = 24m/s

time = 2s

unknown:

Braking force = ?

Solution:

The braking force is the force needed to stop the car from moving.

   Force  =  ma = \frac{mv}{t}

  m is the mass of the car

  v is the velocity

  t is the time taken

  Force = \frac{1100 x 24}{2} = 13200N

An athlete is working out in the weight room. He steadily holds 50 kilograms above his head for 10 seconds. Which statement is t
Nataly_w [17]
<span>The athlete is sweating, straining, sweating, trembling and groaning. 
But if he passed high school physics, then he may remember that
'work' in physics means (force) x (distance).  If there's no distance,
then there's no work. 

He realizes that he isn’t doing any work because he's not moving the weight.</span>

The gravitational force of the Earth pulls down on a stone after someone tosses it off a cliff According to Newton's third law,
katrin [286]

Answer:

The correct answer is c.) the force of the stone's gravity pulling up on Earth.

Explanation:

The correct answer is c.) the force of the stone's gravity pulling up on Earth.

The Earth's size is much greater than size of the stone.

From Newton's Third Law that the force with the Earth attracts the stone is the same as the force of gravitational attraction that the stone exerts on Earth.

Let m_1 be the mass of Earth and m_2 be the mass of the stone.

Therefore F = m_1 \times a_1 = m_2 \times a_2  where it is known that m_1 >> m_2 which implies that a_2 >> a_1.

The acceleration of the stone towards the Earth is much greater than the acceleration of the Earth towards the stone, and so the stone falling towards the Earth is actually visible and perceptible.

Imagine holding a basketball in both hands, throwing it straight up as high as you can, and then catching it when it falls. At w
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:before throwing and after catching the ball

Explanation:

When basketball is in the hand of player net force on it zero as holding force is canceled by gravity Force. During its entire motion gravitational force is acting on the ball which is acting downward. Even at highest point gravity is constantly acting downwards.

After catching the ball net force on it zero as holding force is canceled by gravity force and ball is continue to be in stationary motion.
