Without air resistance, every falling object has 9.8 m/s² of acceleration,
from the instant it starts falling until it hits the bottom.

None of these things makes any difference:

-- whether you throw the object up, throw it down, or just drop it
-- any horizontal speed it has
-- how much mass the object has
-- how heavy it is
-- what color the object is
-- how far it falls
-- how long it takes.

A 13.6 kg block is tied at the top of an incline to a tree. If the incline is 35.5 degrees and the coefficient of friction betwe
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

ASSUMING that block = sled AND that the rope is parallel to the slope.

The force acting parallel due to the weight is

13.6(9.81)sin35.5 = 77.475 N

The maximum friction force is

(0.45)13.6(9.81)cos35.5 = 48.877 N

If rope tension is T

77.475 - 48.877 < T < 77.475 + 48.877

            28.6 N < T < 126 N

28.6 N will occur if the block is on the verge of sliding downhill

126 N will occur if the block is on the verge of sliding uphill

Could be any value between them.

A ball rolls up a ramp with a velocity of 8.0 m/s. How high up the ramp does it travel?
Flura [38]

The greatest height the ball will attain is 3.27 m

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
  • Initial velocity (u) = 8 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (at maximum height)
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Maximum height (h) =?

The maximum height to which the ball can attain can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² – 2gh (since the ball is going against gravity)

0² = 8² – (2 × 9.8 × h)

0 = 64 – 19.6h

Collect like terms

0 – 64 = –19.6h

–64 = –19.6h

Divide both side by –19.6

h = –64 / –19.6h

h = 3.27 m

Thus, the greatest height the ball can attain is 3.27 m

give an example of situation in which an automobile driver can have a centripetal acceleration but no tangential speed
Mars2501 [29]

There is no need for tangential acceleration when moving in a circle at a constant speed.

<h3>What is centripetal acceleration?</h3>

centripetal acceleration refers to the speed at which a body moves through a circle. Due to the fact that velocity is a vector quantity (i.e., it has both a magnitude, the speed, and a direction), when a body travels in a circle, its direction is constantly changing, which causes a change in velocity, which results in an acceleration.

<h3>Which is an example of centripetal acceleration?</h3>

Centripetal acceleration occurs when you spin a ball on a string above your head. A car experiences centripetal acceleration when it is being driven in a circle. Additionally, a satellite in orbit around the Earth experiences centripetal acceleration.

What level of nitrates is considered clean water?
lana66690 [7]
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standard for nitrate in drinking water is 10 milligrams of nitrate (measured as nitrogen) per liter of drinking water (mg/L). * Drinking water with levels of nitrate at or below 10 mg/L is considered safe for everyone.
