Answer:

The initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

time of flight of the ball, t = 2.93 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

initial velocity of the ball, u = ?

The initial velocity of the ball is given by;

v = u + (-g)t

where;

v is the final speed of the ball at the given time, = 0

g is negative because of upward motion

0 = u -gt

u = gt

u = (9.8 x 2.93)

u = 28.714 m/s

Therefore, the initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s

How do i calculate acceleration? pls help! thanks :)
LenKa [72]

The acceleration is 2 mph/min

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is the rate of change of velocity. It is defined as follows:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v

For the car in this problem, we have (taking North as positive direction):

u = 25 mph

v = 35 mph

t = 5 min

Substituting into the equation, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{35 mph-25mph}{5min}=2 mph/min

Illusion [34]

Answer:

the weight of the rider is 493.53 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question and as illustrated in the image below,

Tension T = 1900 N

the rider is moving at a constant speed so the net force in the horizontal direction will be 0

In the horizontal direction

F_{sailcos( 30° ) = Tcos ( 17° )

F_{sail = Tcos( 17° ) / cos( 30° )

F_{sail = 1900cos( 17° ) / cos( 30° )

F_{sail = 2098.07 N

Now, In the vertical direction,

F_{sail sin( 30° ) = W + T sin( 17° )

W = F_{sail sin( 30° ) - T sin( 17° )

W = 2098.07sin( 30° ) - 1900sin( 17° )

W = 1049.035 - 555.506

W = 493.53 N

Therefore, the weight of the rider is 493.53 N

algol [13]

Answer:

D) 4.9 m/s

Explanation:

Speed of Object in Free Fall

s = Rate of Acceleration, Due to Gravity × Length of Time

s = 9.8 × 2.0

s = m/s (Round Up to The Nearest Whole Number)

--

m/s = 9.8 ÷ 2.0 = 4.9 m/s
