Objects fall near the surface of the earth with a constant downward acceleration of 10 m/s2 . At a certain instant an object is

moving upward at 20 m/s. What is its velocity 2 sec later?

Answer:

After 2 seconds the velocity of the object is 0 m/s.

Explanation:

The velocity at 2 seconds later can be calculated as follows:

V_{f} = V_{0} - gt

Where:

V_{f}: is the velocity at 2 seconds

V_{0}: is the initial velocity = 20 m/s

g: is the gravity = 10 m/s²

t: is the time = 2 s

Hence, the final velocity is:

V_{f} = V_{0} - gt = 20 m/s - 10 m/s^{2}*2 s = 0 m/s

This value (0 m/s) means that the object has reached the maximum height.

Therefore, after 2 seconds the velocity of the object is 0 m/s.

I hope it helps you!

The acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter is 2.5 times what it is here on earth. An object weighing 347.9 N here on earth will
inessss [21]

Answer:  weight on Jupiter = 869.75 N

              mass  on Earth = mass on Jupiter = 35.5 Kg

Explanation:

W = mg

W = weight

m = mass

g = gravitational acceleration [ on the Earth, g₁ = 9,8 N/kg ]

On the Earth,

G₁ = m x g₁  = 347,9 N

On the Jupiter,

G₂ = mg₂  

mass on the Earth = mass on the Jupiter !  

m = G₁ : g = 347.9 N : 9,8 N/kg = 35.5 kg

G2 : G1 = 2.5

G₂ = 2,5 G₁ = 2,5 x 347.9 N =  869,75 N
