Group of answer choices.

A. higher than the speed of the air beneath it and the pressure on top of the Frisbee is greater than the pressure beneath it.

B. lower than the speed of the air beneath it and the pressure on top of the Frisbee is less than the pressure beneath it.

C. lower than the speed of the air beneath it and the pressure on top of the Frisbee is greater than the pressure beneath it.

D. higher than the speed of the air beneath it and the pressure on top of the Frisbee is less than the pressure beneath it.

Answer:

D. higher than the speed of the air beneath it and the pressure on top of the Frisbee is less than the pressure beneath it.

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Acceleration = \frac {Net \; force}{mass}

When a frisbee flies horizontally through the air, it experiences air above and beneath it. Also, there is a pressure acting on both on top and below the frisbee.

Typically, the air flowing over the top of the frisbee has a speed that is higher than the speed of the air beneath it.

Furthermore, the frisbee is able to remain in flight because the pressure on top of the frisbee is less than the pressure beneath it.

An object starts at rest. Its acceleration over 30 seconds is shown in the graph below:
ddd [48]

Answer:

The instantaneous speed of the object after the first five seconds is 12.5 m/s.

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

An object starts at rest. Its acceleration over 30 seconds.

We need to calculate the instantaneous speed of the object after the first five seconds

We know that,

Area under the acceleration -time graph gives speed.

According to figure,

speed = area\ of\ tringle

speed=\dfrac{1}{2}\times b\times h

speed =\dfrac{1}{2}\times5\times5

speed-12.5\ m/s

Hence, The instantaneous speed of the object after the first five seconds is 12.5 m/s.
