4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Sine the plane is horizontal , effect of gravity on horizontal motion will be nil.

Since no friction is acting on it , no horizontal force is acting on it. Since no vertical ,no horizontal force is acting on it , it will have uniform motion ,ie its velocity will remain unchanged during its motion , no matter how long the path is.

So , velocity along the path will remain unchanged.

an object is thrown horizontally off a cliff with an initial velocity of 5.0 meters per second. the object strikes the ground 3.
Olegator [25]
You know that the formula for finding horizontal displacement is; 

s=uₓt 
s=(5 m/s)(3s) 
s=15 m

Therefore, the ball travelled 15 m. 

Hope I helped :)

A motorcycle is traveling along a highway at 26 m/s. How far does the motorcycle travel in 15 s?​
leva [86]
26 m/s for fifteen seconds. distance = rate times time, so distance = 26 m/s * 15 seconds. this gives you distance = 390 meters.

An apple is thrown across the cafeteria with a force of 10 N and at an acceleration of 6 m/s2. What is the mass of the apple? ..
Komok [63]

Answer:

Explanation:

F = m * a

The apple's acceleration is not influenced by the acceleration due to gravity for this question.  In real life it most certainly is influenced by gravity.

F = m * a

F = 10 Newtons.

a = 6 m/s^2

m = 10/6 = 1.66 kg. Mighty  large apple
