Answer:

The ball has an acceleration of -380 m/s², this means the ball slows down

An acceleration of -380 m/s² is the equivalent of 38.736 g's

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Velocity of the baseball at time t=0 = 38 m/s

At time t, the ball stops. This means v = 0

time before stops = 0.1s

Step 2: Calculate the acceleration

v= v0+at

with v= the velocity of the ball at time t = 0. v= 0

with v0 = the velocity of the ball at time t=0. v0 = 38 m/s

with a= the acceleration in m/s²

with t = time in seconds

0 = 38 + a*0.1

a = -380 m/s²

The ball has an acceleration of -380 m/s², this means the ball slows down

An acceleration of -380 m/s² is the equivalent of 38.736 g's

Alexxx [7]

Answer: vf1/vf2= 1/ sqrt(2)

Explanation :on the moon no drag force so we have only the  force of gravity. aceleration is g(moon)= 1.62m/s2.the rest is basic kinematics

if the rock travels H to the bottom we can calculate velocity:

vo=0m/s (drops the rock)  , yo=0

vf*vf= vo*vo+2g(y-yo)

when the rock is halfway  y = H/2 so:

vf1*vf1=2*g*H/2 so vf1 = sqrt(gH)

when the rock reach the bottom y=H so:

vf2*vf2=2*g*H so vf2 = sqrt(2gH)

so vf1/vf2= 1/ sqrt(2)

good luck from colombia

A golf ball reaches a height of 150 m before it stops rising and starts to fall to the ground. What is the golf balls speed (rou
artcher [175]

Answer:

v = 54 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

The maximum height of the flight of golf ball, h = 150 m

The velocity at height h, u = 0

The velocity of the golf ball right before it hits the ground, v = ?

Using the III equations of motion

                               <em>  v² = u² + 2gh</em>

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                                 v² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 150 m

                                     = 2940

                                  v = 54 m/s

Hence, the speed of the golf ball right before it hits the ground, v = 54 m/s
