Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
We are to check if the statement is true of false. If it is false, we correct the statement.
Solution:
Acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity. It is the ratio of the change in velocity to the change in time. The acceleration can be gotten from a velocity time graph by finding the slope of the graph.
The x coordinate represent the time and the y coordinate velocity.
5) Graph A passes through the point (0, 0) and (4, 24). Therefore the acceleration (slope) is:
Acceleration = 
This is correct.
6) Graph B is a straight line of 12 m/s. It passes through (0, 12) and (4, 12). Hence:
Acceleration = 
This is false.
Therefore the acceleration of graph B is 0 m/s².
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the balls collide after time t .
distance covered by falling ball
s₁ = v₀ t + 1/2 g t²
distance covered by rising ball
s₂ = v₀ t - 1/2 g t²
Given ,
s₁ + s₂ = D
D = v₀ t + 1/2 g t² + v₀ t - 1/2 g t²
= 2v₀ t
t = D / 2v₀
s₂ = v₀ t - 1/2 g t²
= v₀ x D / 2v₀ - (1/2) x g x D² / 4v₀²
= D / 2 - gD² / 8 v₀²
Answer:
d. None of the above.
Explanation:
In a parabolic motion, you have that in the complete trajectory the component velocity is constant and the vertical component changes in time. Then, the total velocity vector is not zero.
In the complete trajectory the gravitational acceleration is always present. Then, the grasshopper's acceleration vector is not zero.
At the top of the arc the grasshopper is not at equilibrium because the gravitational force is constantly acting on the grasshopper.
Then, the correct answer is:
d. None of the above.
